Shameless self-promotion
After 336 blog postings over
almost five years, I'm going to use this space for a little shameless
self-promotion. The reason? My latest novel, the first part of a young
adult sci-fi adventure series, hits the bookshops today!"Things get seriously weird when Tim Townsend meets a pair of super-intelligent mice with an extraordinary calculator. Suddenly he and his sister are plunged into an adventure full of strange new technology, mind parasites and visitors from very, very far a way.
Aimed at young adult and adult readers alike, Too Many Zeros is an adrenaline-filled adventure story with a cast of zany characters and a heart-stopping climax."
And as befits a blog largely dedicated Linux, my publisher is of course Penguin.
Tux ... and friend
You'll find more details about the book here -- including an extract -- and I should have a proper website up shortly. (An IT project running late? Whoever heard of such a thing ...?)
If you're in Wellington on February 28, come along to Nerdnite 4 ("Be there and be square") where I'll be doing a somewhat tongue-in-cheek presentation about the writing and publishing process. Full details should be on the Nerdite website shortly.

Hey, good for you. SF for younger readers. We should have more of it. (and for not younger readers too)

Good luck with the book Geoff. I enjoyed the extract and will keep an eye out for the book.
