That's it. I got about half-way through, which is further than a lot of people, then I kept making excuses not to read it. It was a bit of a chore. If I do pick it up again, I won't be starting the f*cker all over, I'll just muddle through from where I left off three years ago. I found it all a bit needlessy wacky rather than impenetrable: an extremely convoluted playground game that goes on for days and to which no one knows the entire rules; an agent in drag and a rival agent in a wheelchair in the dark on top of a hill; a native American who sits on a shelf in the gym, and doesn't move, and the tennis academy boys allow him to lick the sweat off them.LawrieAbrahams said:

No they don't. That's like saying everyone has a world cup game in them.soapy_jones said:Everyone has a book in em Leuth. Well done, now you can get on with summit else.

Well done Leuth. I wrote a play if it counts, but I doubt anybody would want to see it!!!!! I did it for me in a desire to create something, and it is just as well as I suspect I am the only one who would like it!
Can you get your book on a kindle? - I'm off on holiday on Thursday - I need something to read.0 -

I quite enjoyed it, in parts at least, although not sure what it was all about.hawksmoor said:

I have an idea for a novel which surfaces every now and then but I can never get past a few pages.0 - Sponsored links:

Check out Wyn Grants list on Amazon. He’s a book machine, although they are not exactly light reading.chilham said:Well done @Leuth - that's at least two Addicks on Amazon- soul music fans might be interested in my modest contribution to literature, also available- https://www.amazon.co.uk/Soul-Citizen-Tales-Travels-Internet/dp/1291246738

Whoooaah. I'm a BIG soul fan and in fact I now only read books about soul and funk music, and I'm far from running out of reading material. On my bedside table is the huge That's My Beat book on Philadelphia soul, I'm currently reading the Tony Fletcher (Palace fan, unfortunately) biog of Wilson Pickett, before that it was Memphis 68, and after the Pickett book, it'll be a history of Chips Moman's American Studio. (Won't be exclusively about soul, but anyone who started at Stax, was a soul session guitarist, then set up a rival Southern soul studio, is all right with me.)chilham said:Well done @Leuth - that's at least two Addicks on Amazon- soul music fans might be interested in my modest contribution to literature, also available- https://www.amazon.co.uk/Soul-Citizen-Tales-Travels-Internet/dp/1291246738

I've got a credit on my Audible account, any chance of getting it published there. Let me know what it's like reading 500 pages out loud, I always wonder how people have the stamina to do that even if it is recorded n chunks.1
