Rik Mayall: Comedy Genius book

[FBS]

I have a new book coming out in January. It's all about the legend that was/is Rik Mayall.
I've been writing it for about two years. More details here: http://www.marksearby.com/coming-soon

It's available to pre-order from all ebook retailers (amazon, iBooks, Kobo etc).

Apologises to the mods if this post is in the wrong place or not allowed. But it is Dr The Rik F**king Mayall

I think this thread can be stickied until the new year.



Hope it sells well Mark!

Mate, it’s Rik Mayall. You can post it wherever you like.

The word „legend“ is oft overused, but in his case it was well deserved.

Thanks. Hoping I've done the great man justice with this.

Agree about the word "legend". The opening paragraph of the book is me making a case why he should be called a Comedy Genius.

Wouldn't have thought that takes much doing! Saw the 'Bottom' show in Nottingham in the 90's (can't recall exactly), it was rather good.

Hey Mark,
Can this be purchased directly from you? If not, which outlet gives you the greatest cut?
Thanks

Your post reminded me of this...

Mark - love the web site and will be getting the book for my brother.
Hope it doesn't come shrink wrapped... he'll know I've read it first if it does!

I wont be selling them direct. I am looking into print on demand.

In terms of digital sales, Amazon is the best.

Just to say, there will be physical copies of my book available in the next couple of weeks. My Gallery proof came today and I'm very impressed with it. Looks great.

Price will be £8.99. I'll post the link soon.
