Chas Griffin's blog read about how Chas came to write the books...
Yippee!
Following the success of my self-published edition, the mighty Ebury Press (of Random House) has decided it would like to re-publish 'Scenes from a Smallholding' (on 5 May 05).
This is good news for anyone thinking of buying a copy, as the Ebury edition is £2 cheaper than my own, and is available in all decent (and possibly a few indecent) bookshops, whereas my own edition is not (marketing is a real pig for the self-publisher).
The bad news is that the new edition contains only a half of the cartoons I had in my own edition, and the layout is different. A question of taste. I'm biased, of course…
