Emmas Incarceration

Some of you will know that a disabled friend of mine recently got stuck upstairs for 30 days due to a faulty stairlift. Although now released from her impromptu prison, at the time she needed all the support she could get - so a few stickman cartoons appeared about life upstairs. Unfortunately these have now multiplied. I have nearly completed my latest book "Emmas Incarceration - the story of Imprisonment-By-Stairlift-that's-busted".


Of course, our Emma is the inspiration, but I bet that anyone who has ever been stranded due to technical failure will have a good chuckle at this :D


Currently having a bit of a dilemma - this book is primarily written for Emma, and has approx 10 cartoons in it (but plenty of humour) but I am convinced that stairlift users up and down the country would love it, as would everyone with my sense of humour (Unfortunately some people are not blessed with my particular outlook. Poor people.) So do I publish it and make it available generally as a 'print on demand' book, or do I just print one for Emma....

  2. Ok! hint taken :D I'll get it published with a 'print on demand' option :)

    My publisher is getting me prices....Emma will have the final say in the binding type, which will determine the price etc and fingers crossed it will be available within 2 months :D
