The Future Starts Here Day Five: Abundance

 





Howdy howdy hi hi hi, it’s such a pleasure and a privilege for you to meet me – you Humans are my 11th favourite species! it is me, Buster the Belobrat, welcoming you to the ‘Kindred Spirits’ promotional publicity drive day five. And what a day it is – ‘Abundance’ is the greatest of the books (because I’m in it, obvs). I’ve enjoyed it so much that I bought three copies. All the better to read with my three heads! It’s also never looked so good either, thanks to the amazing drawings (which are ever so nearly as good as I could have done! Amazing, didn’t know you Humans had it in you! Plus this book is one of the two editions available in paperback in colour where I look even better!)


This book’s a short story collection featuring six happy (well, some more than others) couples who have found love through the universe-famous Earth site ID (Intergalactic Dating). I’m researching a new angle for my new show ‘Love Planet’, only I’m not actually that sure what love is. So come with me and find out through four seasons and
two intergalactic bank holidays: an argibraffe who falls for a Spice Girls
tribute act singer; a future Glabdihardit version of a certain TV series where
‘The Nurse’ travels in time and space in her trusty table (which is bigger on
the inside) with her sonic vegetable peeler while her two co-stars, a Maggrumph
and a Camalosian, fall in love; a Belobrat and an Agrosian who fall in and out
of love repeatedly (that one’s a two-header. Well four-header technically I
guess given that Belobrats have three heads); an innocent Clandusprod and
Mekkion escape long distance by heading to their first Airbnb on Earth (which
is actually in the air!), a Glabdihardit and Habridat ensign enrol on the
Doosbury Giant ship the SS Enchillades boldly going across the universe in
search of new recipes; and a fortune-teller Mrasianart scared of the future
meets a larger-than-life Doosbury who teaches him to live in the present.
Remember, space comes in fifty shades of black. Want to know more? Check out
this video – one so great I thought for a second I’d made it myself!



Buy it here: rebrand.ly/q9srwa3 or the slightly pricier but infinitely cooler
colourised paperback version here https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0F1NKVFJH


Remember, the future starts here. But if you can’t wait for tomorrow then come visit the website www.kindredspiritbooks.blogspot.com (you can even find out which alien you most resemble in our fun quiz!), buy the ‘Kindred Spirits’ merch that will be up at
our Redbubble site one day honest www.redbubble.com/people/AlansArchives (You can cover your whole house with pictures of me. After all, that’s what I did!) or if you want to do things the easy way just look out for one of the Mekkion time-travel machines from the future! Or of course you could just immerse yourself in eleven whole other worlds by buying the e-books, paperbacks or the two compendiums over at Amazon Convergence I: rebrand.ly/yoleg4l Convergence II: rebrand.ly/izcovt7 (plus they’re all free for Kindle Unlimited users. Let’s face it, my words are
priceless!)

Now that all that boring admin stuff is out the way I’m free to tell you about my life’s history. The day I was born was a very special day indeed. I was the (three) head boy at my school and went to find fame and fortune in…what? You’ve run out of room? Huh charming. Well, that’s all from me then. I suppose you can hang around the other days for the other aliens if you want to, but don’t say things haven’t peaked with me. I love you all. See you in the book, which I know you’re all going to buy right now! (I’m
a genius salesman, me!)
