Take a journey into the strange and magical land known as the Mea Culpa Valley; an area with a long and proud history of profound weirdness and absolute lunacy. The residents of a small chunk of squalor known as Timbrook are visited by a precocious knight on a quest, and inadvertently become swept up in a hysterical adventure like none ever before witnessed. Magic, mystery, mayhem and intrigue abound as a powerful warlord’s plot to take over the entire region is slowly uncovered, also revealing the ancient secrets of a powerful stone that may or may not actually be a piece of petrified dragon excrement. Full of laughs, adventure, intrigue, romance and hilarious characters, the Porridge King is a laugh-out loud good time!

(Oh, great! Just what the world needs…another humorous book by a first time author! Jeez, an idiot takes one freakin’ creative writing class in college and he thinks he’s a superstar!)

 “Yea, but this one really is funny! “

(Sure, sure, so’s my proctologist, but I wouldn’t read his book either, mainly because he always has cold hands. But, I digress…here’s the numbskull’s blurb…which I’m sure took longer to write than the book…)

 “Take a journey into the strange and magical land known as the Mea Culpa Valley; an area with a long and proud history of profound weirdness and absolute lunacy.  The residents of a small chunk of squalor known as Timbrook are visited by a precocious knight upon a quest, and inadvertently become swept up in an uproarious adventure full of magic, mystery, mayhem and intrigue. Hilarity abounds as a plot to take over the entire region is slowly uncovered, also revealing the ancient secrets of a powerful stone that may or may not actually be a piece of petrified dragon excrement. Full of laughs, adventure, romance, and comical characters, the Porridge King is a laugh-out loud good time!”

(Hmmm…sounds like a recipe for disaster…)

Or, for absolute hilarity!

(…more propaganda…)

 

The Porridge King is available ABSOLUTELY FREE at Smashwords.com, or at Amazon for only 99 pennies!  

Read it, laugh-it up, and get addicted; then download The Porridge King: Book Two!

(Oh, look! The idiot has a marketing plan!)

Yes! So please check it out, and if you like it, then maybe post a review, or some type of constructive criticism, or perhaps a few veiled threats, and if you don’t, then go eat a bowl of oatmeal and ponder what type of person would write such a silly book and spend more than three minutes promoting it.

(Just the thought of it makes me shiver like a wet Chihuahua stuck in a wind tunnel…)

Oh, sure, I could quote you a bunch of reviews but we both know they’d either be fake or written by people who owe me money. So, don’t take some idiot’s word for it … take this idiot’s word for it … the Porridge King is funny! And fun to read! Or my name isn’t Edgar Smallberries … which it isn’t. But, I’d be willing to change it for a nice cash advance or a promissory note written with grape jelly.

Thank you and here’s to you and your bravery.

(You have my deepest apologies.)

The Porridge King – Available wherever fine dish towels are sold!


Excerpt

Her name was Queenie Ambrolicious, and she arrived in Timbrook amid much fanfare ― accompanied by her traveling horde of elves, brownies, sprites, and Bolivian bellboys. With great benevolence, she cast a spell upon the local residents so that whenever anyone spoke the magic word ― ‘polystyrene’ ― a large lump of cheese would suddenly materialize in their pants.
Huge feasts and small cocktail parties were given in her honor for bestowing upon the peasants such an abundance of edible dairy products, as well as for finally putting something within their trousers that was actually worth reaching inside for.

***

Two months into his new profession, he realized how much easier it was to stuff dead animals instead of living ones ― and his business began to flourish.
