My new Fart Patrol books were launched in August 2018.
Written by me, and illustrated by the very talented James Hart.
Below are any media, catalogues etc covering them.

Below are various media articles (TV, magazines, newspapers, radio) covering both my adult books. The media response (all over the world in the case of ‘Men on the Menu’) was amazing.

A rather tacky 1 1/2 page spread article in England’s Real People. Still, better to be looked over than overlooked!

I’m not so sure about this one – Turkey copied the Daily Mail UK article but changed the heading to something like “Aussie woman sleeps with 75 Men”. Charming. Welcome to the media circus!
They’ve already taken one of the sites down after several complaints, so this may follow suit….
