A Novel featuring Hippies, football and time travel...

OK, OK, I know there are millions of other people banging out novels on line. I have even read some of them myself. I have been farting about with Team Spirit for what seems a lifetime now and I do love the story, I have it all mapped out in my mind, but it is the discipline of making myself write it down completely, finish it off, that is the real difficulty I have. So many other things to distract me. Well, having heard some woman on the radio the other day getting over excited by the six-figure advance she had received from a certain well-known publishers for her (IMHO) self-centred navel gazing tosh that had been picked up on the net via a blog, well, I thought I'll have some of that myself. So week by week, I shall start publishing the chapters of Team Spirit and the ongoing struggle of it's central hero Drood Hinchcliffe and his best buddy Bryan Camfield, to come to terms with a bizarre world of which they have not the slightest idea what is going on in. Blimey. That sentence got away with me already and I haven't even started yet. You can always make a run for it here, dear reader...
Comments would be most welcome, as long as they are either constructive or praising. Please, none of this American "Hey, I love your blog, have you considered tri-equity sausage bonds with Rolex watches free in our casino with lashings of hot viagra! Make your cock HUGE!" bollocks, OK?
Finally, the town this is based in is called Hulke and is pronounced "HEW-K" and is actually based on the town of... well, that would be telling. See if anyone can work it out.

Phew! And I thought it was just me...

How come nobody ever offered me any tri-equity sausage bonds? ... and now I want some... dammit!
