Yes, if you like SF I'd go for Max. It's a dystopian anti-capitalist kind of thing. The one I'm writing right now is more traditional SF, with rockets and androids. It should be ready in a few months.

I wouldn't fancy reading 100,000 words on a DS, so I'd recommend going the laptop / PC route and downloading the PDF version of the book, which has professional 'novel-tyle' formatting. Alternatively, you can download the text version and paste it into a word processor, or buy the epub version and use something like Calibre (http://calibre-ebook.com/) to view it.

Crikey, that's quite a few books! Well done. I gave up after my first - far too much work involved!

And while I'm here...

A short comic series I made. In actual fact, The Continuing Adventures of Coffeetableman started life being sketched on random eBay packages I posted. I'd do a sketch, add a random number (ie: 73, 112, etc), and then post them. Some emailed to say how it had brightened their day, others threatened to leave bad feedback they were so offended. I wish I had scanned each of these before sending them. Sadly I did not, and so the original series is lost. I made about 20. Recently(ish) I went and redrew 9 of them again. I had intended to redo all of them, as best as I could remember, and make some new ones, but lack of time and motivation curtailed that.

There's no way to make this sound polite, but has she had any proper tattoo training at all? Served any apprenticeship? You could be letting yourself in to a minefield there.

Yeah, we have lessons once a week with her tattoo artist. It is outside the scope of a proper apprenticeship and everyone is told that first, I even have a longform waiver that I drafted No likey - no tattooy

And that, in a nutshell, is why tattooing has gone to ****.

The 'numericals' tattoo.... what body part is that supposed to be...?

[Spatial]

Uh-oh, here I come with my work hat on.

Dude, be very, very careful what you're doing with the tattooing. I don't know the full circumstances here but there's a few issues which could catch you out here, and using a waiver won't count for much if the Local Authority find out.

Oh.. how do you learn then?
