Hello everyone,

I've written a book. Naturally, DNA (among other people) is a huge influence. It's not out for ages but that won't stop Amazon from letting you order it!

No cover! Plot sounds interesting 'though. Good luck, Mark!

Yeah, no cover yet! Expecting to have it by February. The book's not out 'til Jan 2012 so there's plenty of time for the illustrator and designers to do their stuff.

Nice website! If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost? I've been thinking of making my website look nicer.

Let's just say it was significantly cheaper than all the other quotes for web design I got. I'd recommend the guy who did it at the drop of a hat.

Excuse the modesty fail, but I'm rather proud of this review in the Financial Times!

Good work, Mark.

Well that's a kerching from me. I looked to buy it for my son for Xmas, but it hadn't been published. I'll let you know his reaction, he's 11.
