It's been a while...
Am now busy on the follow up to Smuggling Vacation, entitled 'Day of the Deal' as well as continuing the sales of SV on weekends. Time has been lacking, hence the lack of blogs lately.
Almost didn't have the time to promote the Ganjaman Presents magazine where Him and Her featured in the two page special 'Amsterdam Weekend'. Due to be available from the site some weeks ago it is already sold out following the three day Hemp Expo at Brick Lane. Will add it onto the paypal once Jim Stewart sends me more down.
Plenty happening. Easier just to bulletpoint so we can get up to date:
*Following Hemp Expo was Comica last week, headed by Paul Gravett. An excellent day where sales of SV surpassed expectations and reminded me that I need to start lining up some signings once more.
* Previews magazine by Diamond - the comic retailers bible: December issue. Smuggling Vacation features in both the British and Worldwide sections and will soon be taking the book all over the world.
* Contacted by a London Film Company regards the Film Rights to Smuggling Vacation. Many have said the book would be an excellent movie and it seems one film company has been quick to spot this.
*Dec 13th, 3-5pm booksigning at the Astral Gypsy in Coventry.
* Day of the Deal completes writing in two weeks time. August 2009 is now penciled in as its release date.
That gets us up to date. More additions to the site will be here soon. Hemp Expo Pics to go up, a new 'About' page, and a preview of Day of the Deal to come.
...and just one last thing. Jonathan Ross requested a copy of Smuggling Vacation prior to print with a view to providing a cover quote. Due to his overwork it never happened, but now... ?

Hi Jason,
I really enjoyed reading Smuggling Vacation. A really funny well observed story, beautifully drawn.
I run a small independent film production company in London and wanted to know if the film rights to Smuggling Vacation had been optioned yet. I would be grateful if you could let me know.
Best wishes
Alan

Hi Alan,
Have been busy on 'Day of the Deal' for the last ten weeks and have not been checking the site as regularly as i otherwise might.
Have now e-mailed you and we can talk further.
