A LITTLE MOUSE VIDEO AND THE BOOK LAUNCH!!
Hi,
It's my book launch tomorrow for my latest poetry books and also for GOSSIP FROM THE CHEESE COUNTER... (This is kind of the second time that it has been launched really, as it was also launched back in November 2008, when I thought it was going to be ready...) Anyway, it's out at last, but there are other blogs on this site about all that - I'm posting today about another matter...
ON my BLOGTV show tonight I read a little bit from GOSSIP FROM THE CHEESE COUNTER. My show is usually mostly just about poems - but I made an exception today, as I'm thinking about reading this particular piece at my next poetry gig.
The video below contains two poems, but the middle section is one of Auntie Astrid's agony aunt letters which appears at the end of GOSSIP FROM THE CHEESE COUNTER.
I hope you enjoy it! :)
Yeti hugs,
Paul xx

AT LAST - A NEW MOUSE OF COMMONS BOOK!!
Hi,
This is just to announce that the new Mouse of Commons book -
GOSSIP FROM THE CHEESE COUNTER is finally available on Lulu.com
It was intended to come out in November, but there was some delay due to losing my excellent proofreader, Chris and also the amount of poetry work I've been doing in the last year or so. The next book I am working on is
POSTCARDS FROM MCWHISKERS, a collection of the blog-stories set overseas; full of pictures from the trips and also the completion of the story partially posted on this blog late last year. I am also working on a new Mouse novel:
GLADSTONE MCWHISKERS AND THE COUNTERCLOCKWISE CONUNDRUM and have loads of short stories to type up for later short story collections. 2010 is 10 years since
MOUSE OF COMMONS - MOUSE OF LORDS was written, so I'm hoping to think of something nice to do for that event; maybe some sort of picnic - we shall see...
Further details on
GOSSIP FROM THE CHEESE COUNTER below:
GOSSIP FROM THE CHEESE COUNTER is the latest collection of Mouse of Commons stories about Gladstone McWhiskers and Oliver Louse. The adventures in this collection concern a long-lost cave-bunny unearthed in Green Park, a mysterious gem known as The Hypnotic Sultana, a sleep-walking haggis named Raul and a series of peculiar goings on during a TV show known as "The Hex Factor."The book is 400 pages long, containing black and white photos taken by myself and is available in paperback and hardback.
You can buy the paperback version for £9.99 + p&p at the following link:

http://www.lulu.com/content/hardcover-book/gossip-from-the-cheese-counter/4051259One thing to take on board when ordering hardback books on LULU is that it is better to order your hardback books as a separate purchase. Hardback books are printed in the States, whilst paperbacks are printed in the UK - making one order containing a hardback copy will rise the overall cost of postage.
BASICALLY: ORDER YOUR HARDBACKS AS SEPARATE PURCHASES TO KEEP POSTAGE LOW!!!More news soon - I may be doing a little section on each of the 4 stories in the new book, let's see how things go, shall we? :)
Take care,
Squeaky wishes,
