The Italian Job

#1 Unread post by Mr. Duke »

Hi guys!

My missus and I did a european trip last year. Leaving our home in Leeds, England and rode through France and Switzerland before reaching Italy where we toured for several days before heading back home via France.

We had the most amazing experience, which I have written a book about entitled THE ITALIAN JOB. I am currently seeking an agent to represent me, but the rejection letters are piling up! :frusty: :frusty:

Charley Boorman has told me that he will write me a foreword for the book, but I haven't heard from him as yet as he is in Africa with Ewan McGregor, but fingers crossed he'll be in touch when he gets back!

Anyway check out my website and if any of you guys are in the publishing or literary agent business please get in touch any advice or help will be much welcome!

Here's a couple of pics to whet your appetite

No Problems! there are more on my website. Please feel free to have a look. I'm also toying with the idea of changing the title.

Dream Chaser

The Ride of Our Lives

Journey to Our Dreams

What do you think??

I know that it's pretty hard having not seen the book or read any of it, but any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome.

Have you tried Whitehorse Press? They publish a lot of motorcycle books that other publishers might not.
