Highly entertaining account of a young man's first year as a rookie comedian. His comedy is focused on the world rather than the church & he gigs regularly around the country
- average three times a week. He has a considerable following through the churches but also does a great deal of work through the mainstream comedy circuit. He has performed regularly at all the main Christian events. The book represents my first year in the world of comedy. The book will chart the reality of life on the comedy circuit
- & how those ups & downs affect my faith my relationships my goals etc. It is also about a 25 year old slightly at odds with his environment. The gigs are a stepping stone for observations on life in general. I want to provide good quality humour that faces outwards & talks about life in general rather than looking inwards & seeing the funny side of church.""

I hate it when people say 'I'm sorry to hear that' Parenting a child on the autistic spectrum can be tough at the best of times but few books take the time to celebrate the love & laughter an autistic child can elicit in their parents & those around them. In this warm honest & laugh-out-loud tale of bringing up Bobby now ten Georgina Derbyshire shares & rejoices in his 'slightly different' childhood. As she outlines momentous events in Bobby's life from the day he decided he was a dog (continuing life as a canine for a year afterwards) to the time he catapulted an innocent shopper into a mountain of strawberries Georgina repeatedly challenges the perception of autism as an affliction maintaining that neurotypical people often make far less sense. Through her light-hearted & hilarious storytelling she reveals how social codes & psychological games make the neurotypical world a very confusing place to live in more so than ever if you happen to be a young boy with a passion for rocks tape measures & trains. This book is a must for anybody involved in the upbringing of an autistic child whether they are in search of a little comfort companionship light relief
