The publishing world did one of two things when this book first came out: ignored it, or decided, without reading it, that it was something completely different to what it is.
Yet Bluesky seems to like it.
Could that actually mean - whisper it - that the publishing industry is *wrong* sometimes?

A linoprint of a hare, filled with flowers, by my mum, Jo.
To celebrate March, here's a meadow hare linoprint by my mum, Jo, from my book Ring The Hill (which is a medieval term for hare).

final state of game, retaliate and guard are flipping brilliant as is getting Laurie's final power, can mean so much more time to buy decent actions especially with the Fresh Meat event that put six more 'victims' on the board
Oh my head, finished my first playthrough of Final Girl: Camp Happy Trails!
followed a video to get some of the nuances, and each turn took an absolute age as I made sure that I was doing everything correctly...
I slaughtered the butcher! (lost a few 'victims' though 😢)
should be easier next time
I'm UK and it's out on Thursday, sorry

Word of mouth is the only marketing I have, so I appreciate you taking a moment and sharing your platform to give my books a boost 💚

Side view of the AV1 tank. Painted mainly in light grey it has a rotating turret to the front (left), side sponsons painted dark grey, cupola on the roof and an upright boiler on the back (also painted dark grey). The lower hull is dark grey along with the tank tracks. Suitable weathering all over but the officer who’s standing in front isn’t overly impressed
Photo showing all the parts. There’s quite a few… From left to right. Upright boiler, two sets of tank tracks, main hull, two sponsons, relatively unhappy officer, lower hull (at the back) cupola and cupola hatch and the the main turret on the right.
The engineering option with VSFA36 in place of the main turret. No reason why it couldn’t go on top of the hull instead of at the front.
Rear view with the officer completing his inspection. Someone is going to get a reprimand for having the tank so rusty.
There's a medium sized steam tank in the webshop now. The AV1 😬
It has an option for an engineering version but there's no reason why you couldn't add any of the turrets or other bits that have the 25mm plug/slot.
