The Fix-Its

The Fix-Its (2006) Post 332

The Fix-Its does what it says on the tin. It's a story about a couple who love fixing things. They renovate their old house, and then branch out into helping other people. They decide to make it their business, so they plan to buy a van, paint their slogan, design a website and advertise their services. Unfortunately, these plans are interrupted by people who need things fixing. And... they all say "You ought to be a business". The Fix-Its just can't get any time to get things underway until someone they helped puts her organisational skills to work. The Fix-Its use simple machines and tools, and explain their use to their friends. That's why it's called a Content-Based Fiction Book!


ABOUT THE BLOG

Sally is Sally Odgers; author, manuscript assessor, editor, anthologist and reader. She runs http://www.affordablemanuscriptassessments.com and Prints Charming Books. (Sally is me, by the way, and I am lots of other things too, but these are the relevant ones for now.)

The goal for 2017 is to write a post a day profiling the background behind one of my books; how it came to be written, what it's about, and any things of note that happened along the way. If you're an author, an aspiring author, a reader or just someone who enjoys windows into worlds, you might find this fun. The books are not in any special order, but will be assigned approximate dates, and pictures, where they exist.
