Backed, out of interest why didn't you go down the publisher route?

It is being being done via a publisher. Https://www.littlepeak.co.ukDave Barter wrote: ↑Tue Jul 07, 2020 1:20 pm Backed, out of interest why didn't you go down the publisher route?
I wanted to launch via KS for the extra publicity.

It was good to hear that the print run has taken place - good news for both you and your readers.
Looking forward to reading it, with a pint of beer at hand, and dreaming of my next (relatively pathetic) trip
