Alan Pinkett:
Alan Pinkett was
born in Bromley, Kent and is now able to reveal
his age.
He is educated to a Degree and this enabled him
to qualify as a Chartered Civil Engineer. He
specialised in water engineering and has spent a
very happy career designing projects that involve
spending millions of pounds of other people's
money to provide water supplies and counter
floods, drought and pollution. Marvellously, the
job also enabled him to go off adventurin' around
the country and around the world. But he likes it
best here, now.
Must be the weather.
He is divorced, shares a house in Surrey with his
brother and took up writing for the first time a
few years ago. He finds he quite likes it and
says he will do some more if you're not careful.

Utta Drivel
(Entered for the
Commonwealth Writers' Prize):
It
would appear that Weeble WattleDaub lives
in an ideal world: having slept through
several centuries since the Roman era, he
has evolved slowly, enabling him to
acquire the skills and charm to find a
girlfriend with a passion for sex, but no
desire to get married, and build several
successful business enterprises –
from a computer company supplying the
ideas behind Microsoft, to a nun-servicing
industry. The parish has the prestigious
seven-steepled, fourteen-trancepted
church complete with dog-collar kennels,
the Scouts have introduced a new breast-fondling
badge, and Weeble’s businesses are
enough to keep him busy and affluent.
Indeed life in Great Piddle seems easy.
However, all is not as it seems and the
evil antics of Mori Arty, the
indiscriminate rampaging of the
paramilitary wing of the Ramblers’
Association and a little espionage and
Skull Duggery pose a threat to the
otherwise tranquil world of Weeble,
Boothroyd and, of course, Utta Drivel...
" An audaciously satirical work in
which the author’s wit will make you
laugh out loud."Currently
unavailable in either paperback or eBook
format.
|
|
Utta Drivel
Too:
Utta
Drivel Too describes the laughter-filled
lives of friends Weeble, Boothroyd &
Utta Drivel and their surreal comic
adventures when their normal existence is
periodically deflected by outside events.
These include increasingly frequent
attacks instigated by a man sworn to be
Weeble’s enemy – a one-time
Israeli landscape painter by the name of
Mori Arty...
Another “audaciously satirical work
in which the author’s wit will make
you laugh out loud”.Available as a
paperback at Amazon.co.uk: Click

Utta Drivel
Free:
Utta
Drivel Free is a comic novel that
follows the life of Wilfric and his
friends Boothroyd and Utta Drivel.
Wilfric is 1600-odd years-old, a
longevity that can make for some
interesting takes on history. Meeting up
with walking disaster Boothroyd and the
wonderfully eccentric patriot Utta Drivel
leads to much laughter. Their sparkling
conversations cover many interesting
ideas. Are 10 commandments enough to
cover 7 deadly sins? Why were typists
ever needed - you wouldn't get a monk to
do your handwriting for you, after all...
But laid-back entrepreneur Wilfric has
managed to make enemies in mystical
Glastonbury after setting up a business
there. This upset the Glastonbury
Underworld and they took out a contract
on him. The friends' lives become
interspersed with attacks from two
incompetent New Age hippies - Loco Chanel,
a militant aromatherapist, and her mad
partner, Ossie the Osteopath.
An audaciously satirical work in which
the author's wit will make you laugh out
loud.To

Christopher
Woods and Jeff Crouch:
Christopher
Woods and Jeff Crouch work collaboratively. The visuals
are by Jeff Crouch, an artist from Grand Prairie,
Texas. The words are by Christopher Woods, a
writer from Houston. About this collaboration
Christopher Woods says, “I work
collaboratively with Jeff Crouch. Sometimes I
write in response to one of Jeff’s images.
Other times, he comes up with an image that
somehow interprets the text, whether poem or
story or play. Because we are individual artists,
we each see our own way. The result, the mesh of
image and text, is intriguing, and often
surprising, to me.
