Just for something to do, I searched Amazon.co.uk for Cromarty Biggs Powder Monkey and was chuffed to discover 3 copies for sale. What really blew me away were the prices being charged for a copy. Take a look yourself and you'll be amazed as well that it's being sold for over £20 with one "collectable" copy being sold for £29.95 plus p & p. I think that this shows there is a market for my work, but I'm still banging my head against that brick wall until my head, or it, breaks.
If there's anyone out there who's got contacts with literary agents or publishers, please send them my way!! I've sent sample chapters to another publisher over the pond so you never know, I might get a second bite at the cherry yet.

One in particular caught our attention, because the story seemed to be very similar to In Search of the Beast which Rain Publishing were going to publish before the proprietor decided to cease trading. So much for no market for anthropomorphism!
