The Irascible Indie. Part 3: My Target Market?

Resident in what is currently called The United Kingdom in a chunk known as NE Wales (a bit west of Liverpool). Married for 45 years to the same gal, 3 children, 5 grandchildren. Work for 45 years in various branches of the UK's Civil Service (never a dull moment- not in a good way) I have been writing for 30+ years and until I started taking seriously all the advice and support from Word Press had badly written and self-published a fantasy trilogy with nothing to show for it, except for a mention on Amazon. That was all written way back and up toJuly(ish) 2015 when I was in one of comedic/ironic phases. Since coming under the more maturing, positive, adventurous and productive influences of the Wordpress Community I have tried to work outside of that bubble. Enlightened thus I have published through Amazon Kindle 'A True History of The Isles' ' (a history of the Isles Ireland, Scotland Wales & England) Vol I & II which is less than serious and is my antidote to some of the Brexit debate and the more hysterical views of history (I aimed offend both the Right and Left- wing offenders in the debates) My principal project is a fantasy series 'The Precipice Dominions'.... The first volume being 'Of Patchwork Warriors' which is out on Amazon Kindle. Volume Two 'Our Skirmishers of Lace, Fire and Steel' is completed and awaiting a cover. I intend for this project to go to Four Volumes... very pleased about how these should end...the bits in between might be a problem though.... Since I am something of a indy-writer who will not 'be told' and accept the fact this in no way helps my selling/marketing profile, I go my own chaotic way and hope to be discovered in later decades. After these few years I have decided to separate my 'bloggings' 'heroicallybad' will continue to be dealing with writing in all its manifold facets. I will continue to support folk in their own efforts. My intention is to write until I am summoned from this World Physical, while I am still physically on the planet I will encourage others to write. Not subscribing to any sort of publishing conventions my advice on that side of the subject is not the best. However as I am something of a ranter and given to polemics there is another blog 'Raging from the Lectern', this is ferocious and I don't care who I upset, the world is growing tight on resources and space, we have no room for idiots of any political stripe of any sort, they are all my targets.
