Regular readers who are not suffering from pre-senile dementia will remember around this time last year when I announced my Winter Memoir Challenge. Not to put too fine a point on it, I wanted some daygame memoirs to read and thus tried to cajole people into writing them. I’m very pleased to say that four worthies stepped up to the plate and completed serious first drafts that I test-read.
The first of them, after twelve months of polishing and editing, is now officially released, and by golly it looks rather good doesn’t it?
Yes, rising star in the London Daygame world [1] Thomas Crown has just released Demolition Lovers, a memoir of his 2016/17 period of daygame carnage. Those of you who read his rather excellent blog [2] will know he’s a capable writer and good communicator [3]. I can personally vouch for the extreme care Thomas has lavished on this book, having read three different drafts as the memoir took shape over the past twelve months. It’s not a rush job at all.
I’ll review it properly at a later date, but I want to get a paper copy to read at my leisure when I’m back in Newcastle for Christmas. For now, I’m just fulfilling my promise of announcing its existence to my readership.
Go here to purchase your own copy. If you’d like to leave your thoughts on the book in the comments here, please do. Let’s try and get a little buzz around the book. In our little daygame corner of the internet, there are very few good books released. Let’s celebrate when one comes out [4]
I shall forgo the usual opportunity to pimp my own memoirs in italics, so go have a look at Demolition Lovers before an irate boyfriend murders the author in revenge for shagging his bird.
[1] That’s five pounds you owe me, Tom.
[2] Make it a tenner.
[3] Fifteen.
[4] Call it a round twenty.
