EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED ON AMAZON
Posted by: | CommentsIn a similar posting to yesterday – Everything You Ever Wanted has been selling extremely well on Amazon recently and is temporarily out of stock. A new order will be going out this week and normal service will resume by next week.
Don’t forget you can order direct from the Tonto website if you can’t wait that long. Or vote for it over there on the right for your free PDF version and chance to buy it half price next month!!

MAKE IT BACK AND 9987 ON AMAZON
Posted by: | CommentsFor all those who have emailed about Make It Back and 9987 not being in stock on Amazon.
This is just a temporary out-of-stockness… and down to huge demand for both novels. It looks like everyone was taken by surprise and initial stock orders were not sufficient to fulfil those placed by Amazon buyers.
Fear not – they will be back in stock this week. Thanks for your patience and thanks even more for your support on these two titles.
If you can’t wait – you can order direct from www.tontobooks.com.

Today I will mostly be…
Posted by: | CommentsSorting boxes of paperwork
Sorting piles of paperwork
Reading through piles of paperwork
Chasing unpaid invoices
Resending unpaid invoices
Chasing bookbuyers (not literally, but I’m sure the day will soon come)
Reorganising furniture
Putting shelves up
Arranging phone connections…
Oh what fun it is to set up a new office and have to be phoning and emailing people about issues you phoned and emailed before Christmas but they didn’t action and now have no memory of said issues.
Still, it’s not all bad. Tonto will have some more rights acquisitions to shout about in the next few weeks, all being well.
The soundtrack to all this:
Return of the Iron Monkey by Trio Valore – it helps to move quicker when yer diggin the jazz.
Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes – it helps to move slower when it’s time to relax.
I’ve got a meeting with top events blokey, Simon at Borders Team Valley tomorrow to sort out some exclusive Tonto events in the coming weeks… watch this space.
