Action-packed hot news!

It’s been a while since my previous email/blog update.

I’m very proud and delighted to say my new book Screw It, I’ll Take The Elevator is now published! The book covers the years 2000 to 2018. You can read extracts from the book here

I’ve uploaded a new short and funny video (just like me!) on the front page of my website.

There’s no doubt that ‘Stairs For Breakfast’ is a great book. However, I prefer Screw It, I’ll Take The Elevator because it’s sharper and funnier. I encourage everyone to purchase the new book. Not only because it’s excellent but also because it will help me with my finances!

Screw It, I’ll Take The Elevator has already got some 5-star reviews on Amazon, where it is available in Kindle format. if you prefer paperback books, you can buy it directly from me

On Saturday I did a book signing at the Holmbush Tesco superstore in Shoreham. It was really good and I’ll be there again this Saturday. Thank you Claire Hobson, Lisa Preston and Deano Pointer from the store for all your support. You are fantastic people. (I’ve always wanted a Saturday job at Tesco!)

On Saturday 18th August, I’m doing a book signing at the Scope shop, Chapel Road, Worthing.

In other news, I’ve extended the lease of (and remortgaged) one of BTL flats. It also involved raising a complaint about my old mortgage company with the Financial Ombudsman Service. Last year I applied to go onto another fixed rate but TMW/Nationwide didn’t process my application. The Ombudsman upheld my complaint and Nationwide have reimbursed the interest I overpaid. I found the lease extension and complaint simple because all it involved was liaising with people. Next year I’ll look at doing something with my other BTL flat.

As you may know, in September, I’m going to Spain to complete my ascension mastery course. I can’t wait! It’s amazing the impact ascension meditation is having. I feel content and relaxed, my walking and talking is easier, and I’m effortlessly helping people.

I know I can do anything (eg motivation speaking, more property, climb a mountain!). I’m happy with where I am at the moment!

I have been approached by Rob Pelling and Mark Newman, two local businessmen who over the last few years have completed various charitable challenges. They asked me if could assist me to walk up Mount Snowdon. I’m up for it! The 7km ascent is planned for September 2019 and is likely to take up to 14 days. Feel free to contact me if you’re interested in being involved with the expedition.

Here’s a press release I’ve recently put together.

Thank you for your support 🙂

Battery recharger needed to have new book printed!

It’s been a few months since my last email/blog update. I had an amazing time in Spain and now am half an Ascension meditation teacher! More on that to come soon.

For the 2.5 months I’ve been working long hours; finishing my second book, converting it into book format, making videos and updating my website:

This video is on the front page of my website.

Thank you very much to the people who have already pre-ordered my 2nd book ‘Screw It, I’ll Take The Elevator’. I am planning to publish it on 15th April 2018, as I need more pre-orders to have the book printed. You can order my books here and now http://stairsforbreakfast.com/buy-now

People say Stairs For Breakfast is very funny however my second book is even funnier! It covers October 2000 to April 2017. If you’ve met me over the last few years you’re probably in the elevator!

Having worked so hard I am very proud of my books and everything I have achieved. Thank you for reading this and for helping to get my second book published.

The cover of my book is sorted!

The first draft of my book cover should be through in a week or two. (I’m a poet and I didn’t know it!)

Thank you very much to the people who have pre-ordered my book recently. (My thank you page will be updated shortly). I now have 168 pre-orders – and am 99 away from reaching my required target for having the book published. Http://stairsforbreakfast.com

It’s been a busy couple of days getting all of the bits needed for the book cover.

Thank you to my friend Roy Stannard who has helped me with the back cover summary (and also my biog and a testimony for inside the book). When I first met Roy in 1996 I said “I want to work behind the scenes in radio”. He knew I was serious and we’ve been friends ever since.

Glenn Armstrong texted me “When someone tells me they can’t do something I tell them Patrick’s story and share his ability to overcome whatever is put in front of him. He is an inspiration. Patrick I am proud to be your friend

Glenn has helped and inspired me so much, without me asking. This is just one of the ways he has helped me with my book.

Glenn – I’m proud to be your friend – and feel humble to be one of your many mentees.

Paul Ribbons has given me the following quote “Patrick consulted me while writing this book. This book is a must for anyone. It’s honest, funny and inspirational. It humbles me just thinking about the effort it must have taken

Paul has taught me a lot and he’s also kind of like a dad to me. I don’t speak to Paul very often – but I know he’s there if I need advice

I have been through a few emotionally painful experiences in life – and I’ve overcome them all.

When I was writing the book, there was only one chapter which I found painful – because it was something I hadn’t overcome yet – and consequently had been beating myself up about for 20 years.

When I writing said chapter, I phoned Paul twice in one week. it was only after talking to Paul – and writing about it – that I overcome it.

I know I’ve written a great book which will help and inspire many people.

Speaking to Stephanie Hale today, we set the sale price of my (published) book at £15.99.

It means you now have the opportunity to grab yourself a bargain! You can pre-order Stairs For Breakfast for only £15 (which includes postage and packing).

Please help me to publish the book by pre-ordering one or more copies NOW
