Yesterday and today I set off to ask, very politely, if any bookshops would take copies of Grow Your Own Cows. I fully expected them to laugh in my face.
They didn’t!
They took them! Here is a list of places that now stock the book.
They were even quite nice about it. This is how it went:
Me: hello, do you ever take books by local authors?
Bookseller: (sceptical look)… mmm…. yes…
Me: Well here’s my book! blah blah… Good Life… blah blah… Cow in the garden… blah blah
Bookseller: (sceptical look)… yeah…
Me: have a look at the blurb
Bookseller: (chuckles)
Me: so…?
Bookseller: ok. I’ll take 6 copies.
It was that easy. I was very proud of the blurb. If you haven’t seen it, here it is….click to see if it makes you chuckle.
Does it make you chuckle?
