Thanks, I remember we tried Waterstones when Richard and I wrote The Journey Back in 2013 and they weren't interested. Back then, the two of us plus two others (one of whom posts regularly on here) clubbed together to publish it ourselves and paid for the cost of printing between us. This latest book is very much a one man operation and, as such, I couldn't afford the cost of printing, so the only way I could get it published was through Amazon. I can get author's copies of the paperback of Real Madrid and all that by paying just the cost of printing and have written to a couple of retail outlets suggesting I get books this way which they can then buy off me at a cheaper rate, but I've not received a reply from them.
