Humorous Fiction, Absurdist, Interdimensional, and talking cats.
I Keep Thinking it’s Tuesday (A Tom Fletcher Story)
CHAPTER 1
I remember seeing a cartoon once, years ago, in a magazine, of two hippopotami
wallowing in a mud pool. Just the tops of their heads were visible. I think it was
Playboy magazine. The caption under the cartoon said, "I keep thinking it's
Tuesday". That's all. It made me laugh. I've been thinking about it a lot recently. I
don't mean deeply or philosophically, I mean often. I keep thinking it's Tuesday.
Listen. I have to tell you something. Something big. The biggest thing I've ever
done. Well, I haven't exactly done it yet. But I shall. I've made the decision. That's
the important thing. I've made the decision. I've decided to get rid of my wife.
A Question of Alignment (A Tom Fletcher Story)
Something is going wrong with the Lottery. There hasn’t been a jackpot winner for eight weeks.
Something is also going wrong with the weather. It just won’t stop raining.
Balding, middle aged Tom Fletcher is an unlikely man to save the universe. In fact he is an
unlikely man to do anything requiring action, but when the family cat talks to him and then walks
through the sitting room wall even he is intrigued.
Every Which Way But East (A Tom Fletcher Story)
Retired, bored, bald Tom Fletcher uncovers another dastardly plot to change the laws of
probability. Pausing only to take part in a Speed Dating evening, he is soon creating havoc across
multiple universes dressed as a duck. Can Tom beat the Smiths? Will he find love? Can he play
darts? What's a duck got to do with anything? This book should only be read by people with a
sense of the absurd.

“I've either lost my marbles or this book is the most hilarious book I have read in years. I am laughing out loud, and at
the same time I'm thinking this is absolutely nuts; why am I laughing at him, he's crazy beyond any craziness. And then
I giggle some more. :)"

Yep, you gotta' be a bit warped to enjoy this novel. I loved it. It's, as Wilde says, quirky and at times even a bit
credulity-straining, but it's a good read. Wilde does his usual bang-up job of crafting a tale that sucks you into its maw,
masticates you, and then spits you out at the very end - and makes you keep on coming back for more. I just had to
find out what happened and how our intrepid heroes once again saved the universe. Wilde did not disappoint me.

Typical Brit humor, a lot of it tongue in cheek, well written, a very light read, but fun! Very quick, but worth opening.
The dry, fast paced humor is very satisfying.
