Yep, that’s me shamelessly plugging The Life Assistance Agency by Thomas Hocknell, because people should read more & they should support indie authors/publishers. There are far too many talented writers languishing in obscurity while the press & critics keep raving about J. K. Rowling as if she actually needs anymore publicity.
The Life Assistance Agency can be found Here
It’s a great read and this is not just me promoting a friend: gripping story, witty, writing that’s actually brilliant at times, and last but not least, it’s genre defying. Tom is the most original writer I’ve encountered in years – and originality is priceless because it’s so damn rare. If you’re looking for something different to read, give this book a try – I’d be surprised if you didn’t enjoy it. Plus, get in there before the sequel comes out next year 🙂
Shamelessly plug all you want – providing that you post photos of you enjoying your books. 😍

Reblogged this on writerchristophfischer and commented:
Natalie’s approval, praise and friendship aren’t easily won. Her plugging this book so enthusastically has made me most curious and interested and it sounds like a great, quirly and original read. Downloading this now.

That’s ok, I can imagine what your book list is like and if it’s anything like mine, it will indeed be a while (I’ll be waiting here patiently 😉)

It’s good to see you too, Diana. I’ve been off WordPress for ages and I’ve got lots of catching up to do. As for the shameless plugging, I’m sure there’s more to come, haha!

J.K. is increasingly irrelevant these days, even SJWs are annoyed with her. Usually indie books have wall to wall five star reviews which makes me wary but as I trust your opinion I will add it to the list for when I have some cash available.

I’m so pleased you trust my opinion considering I trust yours, my fellow enlightened bookworm. Do you know how precious your comments have been to me over the years? You’re as obsessed with books as I am and you always, always seem to perceive exactly what it is I’m trying to say and…who I am as a person too. As I’ve repeatedly said, I owe you a ton of drinks in a quaint pub somewhere. One day.

I am glad I can give you the comments that stand up to the quality of your writing and thoughts. Books are so amazing and the people who have come into my life through talking about them, and the experiences I have had, has been nothing short of amazing. I think we have the same thoughts quite a lot of the time and get riled up by the same things. I look forward to our pub day/weekend!

A good book is always a blessing to be swimming in a pool of imagination and knowledge.
I too, I’m reading this book….(The Illuminatus! Trilogy) by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson. The best sci-fi book. 🙂
I’ll keep a list on Thomas Hocknell. 🙂
