DIYFather.com publishes first book "Call Me Dad!"

Submitted by admin on Mon, 09/02/2009 - 8:27pm

Yes, yes yes ... the rumours are true ... we wrote a book last year and it got published last week. This week it is available at most high street stores in New Zealand and it will hit the shelves in the UK next month. Major online book retailers have also started selling it ... so "the word" is out! Have a look at our dedicated page for "Call Me Dad!" to find out more and check out the official media release.

Meanwhile we had a bit of a reflection on the writing process ... like the high lights and low lights (and everything in-between) of writing a book in this podcast. Despite the struggles and difficulties of pulling it all off in time and to everyone's liking, a sense of achievement remains and everyone at DIYFather.com is really excited about getting the book out. So a big THANK YOU to all the contributors and everyone who helped with the book! A special thanks of course goes to our children, partners and families for being there for us (and sticking with us) throughout the whole process

Thanks everyone reading this for spreading "the word" ... and if you live in Wellington, come along to our LAUNCH PARTY for drinks and nibbles on February 18th, 6pm at Dymocks on Lampton Quay.

Scott, Eric and Stefan

I bought your book on Saturday having stumbled upon it - had no idea it's a brand new release... (we're expecting our first baby in June by the way)

I got stuck into it on Saturday afternoon and couldn't put it down; the obvious next step was to check out the website so here I am.

I just wanted to say Good work fellas, the book is in a great format and written in the perfect style for blokes (well, me certainly). So far I find it informative without being too technical/medical or worse still patronising, but still a pretty 'easy read'. It's also pretty funny in places, the pictures are great.

Thanks again guys, I look forward to the book which covers the from 12 months on!!

Hi Julie - Great! Come on
