Pictorial Recollections of a Life Partly Spent

Link: Pictorial Recollections of a Life Partly Spent


To celebrate the closing and nailing shut of an uncomfortable wing of my life and the the doors being flung open to reveal a new and marvelous one, I am giving away copies of my comic book life story - Pictorial Recollections of a Life Partly Spent.


It’s not a print version, you’ll have to fork out for that.


This giveaway goody you can download to read on your eThingy.

I’m working on the print version of my life story.
It will be available on.


If you’d like to know when it’s ready, so you can buy a copy, here’s the link.

You know how JK Rowling wrote Harry Potter in a cafe, right?
I’ve decided to write the pictorial version (I’ve already done 30 installments) of my life in the Whetherspoons in Witney.
I wanted to do it sitting underneath the big drawing about sheep and blankets and so on that they commissioned me to do, because with one eye on history, I thought it might at some point sound cool to say I had written/drawn a book whilst sat under the sheep drawing.
But the table was occupied.
So today I was sat there on a stool at one of those high tables, with my note books in front of me, drinking coffee and drawing/writing, when this woman comes up and says-
"Do you have a table free for 4?"
"Um, I don’t know,’ I say, turning to look around me at tables, ’there might be one, but I don’t work here,"
She goes-“Oh, sorry. You look all official there, writing and stuff.”
And I go, “Oh, dear, I think I’m going to have to rethink the whole shirt/waistcoat/tie look.”
And then I start laughing, and then she does too.
Then I offer her my table.
But she says no, it’s fine.
Then her and what I presume are her family walk off toward the back of the pub and I go back to drawing and looking official.
