Read more: No, I Do Not Want To Self-Publish On Amazon. Thank You For Your Concern.So I’ve noticed an interesting pattern ever since I started telling people about my book. Almost every time I’ve mentioned it, without fail, people go straight to “omg you should totally self publish! Have you tried Amazon??” It’s become so bad and I’ve repeated myself so many times now that I have a scripted response…

Looks Like Stonehenge Has A Dirty Little Secret…
Read more: Looks Like Stonehenge Has A Dirty Little Secret…So I’m becoming convinced something interesting is going on with the rocks of Stonehenge.

Don’t Worry, I Didn’t Get Sucked Into A Fairy Ring
Read more: Don’t Worry, I Didn’t Get Sucked Into A Fairy RingSo I definitely didn’t have internet in Britain. Okay, that was kinda a lie, we did have a connection in Wales but I was so exhausted from days of schlumping through muddy pastures and climbing middle-of-nowhere hills that I could barely keep my eyes open in the evenings, let alone write.
