| The Wonderful Demise of Benjamin Arnold Guppy has been filtering into online stores since it was released, just over a week ago.
Benjamin Arnold Guppy loved turnips. He loved eating them, but most of all he loved throwing them. He also loved money and pain... extorting a lot of the former and causing an equal amount of the latter. A foul, sour-faced old swindler with a penchant for clucking like a chicken and more than a passing interest in the local postman, he was determined to get his hands on his neighbours' money, regardless of the cost. As it turned out, the price was his life.
It's a tale of blackmail, turnip tossing, and the cold-blooded murder of an incredibly irritating old man.
This book was inspired by my own experiences of living with nightmare neighbours.
I've just put a trailer together and you can see it here. |

Sounds really idiocycratic, Gina. Best of luck with it! |

You have to wade through them at the local bookstore. It's not easy facing so much competition. |

| Gina, what a great story line. Turnip chucking and old clucking. With a murder thrown in for extra interest. It is sure to be a hit. Congratulations. |

| Kewl! Us Tennessee folks always appreciate a good Turnip chucking. Actually, I like Turnips, and I wish somebody would chuck a few in my direction (with some salt and butter on them). Tell me, what inspired you to write the story? |
