The Future Starts Here Day Ten : Merchandise

 


Eeeeeep! Interplanetary alert!!!!! Humans scary – I’m going to hide under your table! Gosh isn’t your floor messy?! Sorry about that, I’m safer now, it’s just that when you’re natural prey you learn to take precautions. I’m Mrs Squeaky the Glabdihardit (though you can call me anything you like – just as long as it’s not ‘food’) and I’m here on day ten of the ‘Kindred Spirits’ promotional blitz bonanza to remind you to check out the merchandise store at Redbubble. Only things being what they are, it’s not quite ready yet. We applied over a month ago now to have our store set-up but a Doosbury Giant has chewed through a cable or something. Anyway this is to let you know what goodies are in store for you once it’s up and running at https://www.redbubble.com/people/AlansArchives/shop?asc=u&ref=account-nav-dropdown . Eeeeeeep. It’s exciting!!!!

In a universe this hazardous it’s important to surround yourself with things that make you feel safe and warm and cosy, so if you feel the same do check our the ‘Kindred Spirits’ merchandise shop one day. Soon you’ll be able to buy my face and those of ten of my fellow alien species on some very fetching pictures of me on lots of gadgets. All those things you really need. Like interplanetary burglar alarms! No wait, they’re not there yet…Interplanetary tables with inbuilt food-trays ad squeaker mufflers? Actually not that either. But there are a tonne of clothes (not tested on aliens. Mostly because they comes in such different sizes to Humans they wouldn’t fit), magnets (all the better for sticking yourself to the inside of your fridge for safe keeping!), Cushions (very useful for building pillow forts to keep you safe from harm), pet blankets (you’d be surprised how many Humans assume I’m a rodent in the future!), notebooks (useful for writing down the things that scare you: I have ten with my face on!),n clocks (because time is scary and you must keep track of it before it creeps up on you without warning!), buttons (too scary for me – I’m scared of pins!), tote bags (good for putting over your head and hiding in – please don’t do this with your Human invention called plastic, that’s too scary for our planet - as it looks at you funny!), masks (because airborne viruses are still scary even when we’re told they’re not a thing anymore, oh yes they are) and even a miniskirt (though Human legs are scary!) Eeeeep! One thing that isn’t scary is my illustrator, who really captured my inner eeepiness. Eeeeep!

Remember, the future starts here. 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 – not scary at all!) or if you want to do things the easy way just look out for one of the Mekkion time-travel machines from the future (though I warn you: they’re scary!) Don’t forget that all the eight Kindred Spirits books are available at https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DYNQ5VZC?binding=kindle_edition&ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tkin Till we meet again Human, stay safe. And if you inevitably can’t stay safe then stay alert. Interplanetary alert!!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!!!
