*** TRIPLE LAUNCH ***

  *** UPCOMING EVENT - 13th. JULY @KENILWORTH BOOKS *** A triple book launch, postponed from the start of Covid, will include ‘A SORTABIOGRAPHY - THE FUTURE’ along with ‘A TO ZEDOGRAPHY’ (a proper ish autobiography) + an enactment of ‘PLATFORM SHOES’ (a radio play) live and direct (all by yours truly C.D.JENKINS ) More details nearer the time...

And yet another

      NEW BOOK NOW AVAILABLE Never mind all of those sorta biographies on the market, here's the real deal.  After much confloption I am finally able to publish my proper (ish) autobiography .  'A TO ZEDOGRAPHY'   now available on Amazon , is an alphabetical account of my life to date. It covers the more salient points of my existence, i.e. things which have meant the most to me at the time. The book contains some humour and food for thought    - or, as it states on page 4... ...  ‘ So how come I stayed in the same hotel room as the Queen;  have I really met several world famous musicians;  were my ancestors involved in the French Revolution,  have I actually eaten worms and who do I think I am?’    Only one way to find out ... keep on reading  ... And there you have it  -  unless you haven't yet bought a copy.

YET ANOTHER FLAMING BOOK!

    Just to let you know that the book I'm currently writing is almost ready for publishing. This time it's a proper( ish )   autobiography from yours truly.  I have a few more tweaks to do and my illustrator is beavering away at it's cover as we squeak. Upon completion, I shall self-publish once again on Amazon.  : WATCH THIS SPACE :                      : and this one :

NEW BOOK RELEASE

  ** NEW  PAPERBACK  BOOK   NOW  AVAILABLE   AT  AMAZON **                                   "PLATFORM SHOES - A RADIO PLAY"   Yet another nonsensical publication from me to you.  If you like 'mystery plays' on the radio then this book is for you.     Set in the not too-distant future at a local railway station - get to meet the characters as they appear, one by one, learn about their backgrounds and the reasons for their travel.  See if you can fathom out what dastardly crime has been committed and by who! Humorous, surreal, scandalous?            You're the reader - you decide!

Topical question

 Salmond, Sturgeon, Sturgeon, Salmon ... what's your  favourite Scottish fish?
