Book Update – less than a week to go.

book-at-the-beach1 The book is ready and waiting, and we will start taking orders from the 4th January (yes – I know it’s a Sunday – but for those in the UK it means it will be Monday for me!)

It’s been a very long three years in the process of this book coming about. From the time I started answering questions on the ENZ forum, to compiling the “Avalon’s Money Thread” two years ago, to spending the last 2 years doing an awful lot more research and working out how to publish a book. It has been one helluva ride.

There have a lot of ups and a couple of downs, but I’ve done it. On the whole I have had tremendous support from a lot of people, and an awful lot of help along the way.

The only fly in the ointment is that the E-Book version is not yet ready. It was supposed to be – but the publishers shut down for Christmas a bit early, and I didn’t get it before they closed. But I will be chasing them up as soon as they open on the 5th.

So, what do you do if you actually want to buy this fabulous book that I’ve slaved for the past three years over????

Well, head to avalonsguide.com.

book-at-the-beach11 From the 4th January we will have the Paypal Buy Now buttons working, and you will be able to order with a Paypal account or credit card. Books will be posted the following day in padded a5 plastic envelopes, and the price you pay includes postage. We have sent a couple of test books, and the envelopes provided by NZ post protect the book perfectly.

You will also find a link on the page to the HiFX Currency Converter, so you can see how much this is going to cost in your home currency.
If you live somewhere vaguely nearby and want to save on postage, then email me through the contact us page and we will arrange to meet and drop off a copy.

I hope if you choose to buy Avalon’s Guide, that you will get a lot of benefit out of it, and that you really enjoy reading it!
