Ah! Couldn't wait for those sluggish Amazon folks eh? I am ready and braced for your comments Kev!
Half way through it Dave and enjoying it so far even though it's painful remembering some of the crap football we were forced to watch. It's got to be better next season - the eternal optimist!
Fantastic! Glad you are enjoying it! It is a shame the football was so poor and yet there was still often an interesting story in most games. As with Kev I hope you will let me know when you have finished it what you think overall - all comments always appreciated and I hope I didn't divulge any pre-match Pavilion secrets! Already looking forward to seeing all the Pavilion crew again for the next round of heartache!!!!

As I understand it Amazon work in a similar way in that they will place and order for a small quantity and the same printer (Lightening Source) will get an instruction to print them. There are a few printers now who are set up to run single orders through.
Print-on-demand is such a great addition to the printing world, as it allows for niche publications to reach their audience. I just wish there was a bit more care and attention taken with editing and fact checking on some of the books I have seen. I think the worst eample I have seen from a Leeds United point of view is this one:

There are interesting developments in the library world with print on demand too, as the Library of Congress has a print on demand system where you can order rare and of print titles on demand to take away with you. This has such amazing potential in this regard!

What's wrong with it, Deebs? Your reviews are always fair, in my experience, so please spill the proverbials :D

Good luck :D

I know it's out on Amazon kindle now, read a few pages on the 'preview' thing last night (we even got a mention, from the Dundee game I think :thumbup:).

Thanks Rob - yeah I got a shock at first when I saw the pic! That version is the one I created for the Kindle "cover" and I think it works better than the one I eventually went with for the print version (where I was limited by the available font for the title)! I quite like the tattoos though......don't remember having those done!

I am all finished now - its available now direct from CompletelyNovel in print version and then Amazon will have it available in a couple of weeks if last year is anything to go by. As always any feedback gratefully received!
