'Tilly's Tale', Thinking Christmas?

Please forgive the shameless plug, but, with Christmas about to loom large in everyone's thoughts, I'd like to drop in a quick plug for my award-winning children's book, Tilly's Tale, written under my Harry Porter pseudonym. Now, when I say childrens' book, I have to admit that it was written in such a style as to appeal to 'kids' from 8 -99, and it appears as many adults as children have bought it and enjoyed it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TILLY!

Tilly, my lovely little rescued dog, is 6 years old today. Me and all the pack want to wish her a very happy birthday.

Since her book, Tilly's Tale, was launched, Tilly has made so many friends around the world and has already received a number of good wishes for her special day.So, without further ado, I'll simply…See More
