Bootsie Books

[welshrugbyfan]

Might these be available in ebook format in the future (just as an idea)?

Anyway someone can sit and read about 'Bootsie' is good with me.

It is all about getting rugby to the audience and promoting a positive "I can" way of life.

Ebooks is something I would have to look into as I'm not 100% sure on exactly what it is.

Will it be possible, at some stage, to buy the whole lot in one go as a set?
I'd like to donate the series to our school library so the boys (and girls) can read about rugby too. I note our library already has GayFL story books and they're are (grit teeth) quite popular.

At this stage I am self publishing them. My goal is to get the next book in the series out asap but it's all based on sales of the firsto one. If a publisher picked them up then yep the whole lot could go out.

The whole series is finished and ready to go.

Rugby Canada is helping out and I've been sending alot over there already.

Was just told by Rugby WA that I can't sell them at the junior grounds any more. Shame as it's the kids who miss out.

I sell more overseas and over east than I do here. I thought we'd be trying to do anything to spread the game here, especially to the juniors.

Obviously I was mistaken.

You would think the individual clubs would be able to chosse what happens at their grounds, not RugbyWA....poor form on RugbyWA's part I say

It's not that they don't want you selling your books, it's because your ugly and have poor aesthetics...

Not allowed to go to Britannia, Medina and Lake Joondalup as they said the venues are match venues and are all sanctioned by the Western Australian Junior Rugby Union and I would need permission to sell the books at their grounds which has been denied.

It was good to get to a larger audience at these grounds each week.

I saw a kid with a home made "Bootsie" t shirt on the other day which was nice.

What about Grand Final day at McGilvrey, should be a big crowd???

Not sure they probably sanction the games so be the same thing there.

Maybe you can have advertising leaflets to hand out at the game, rather than selling the books. Surely they couldn't object to that?

I'd hope not....
