Publishers wake up and smell the coffee

Four years ago I wrote a book Columns Cornices and Curves  to accompany the level 3 Plastering Diploma, as the students on level 3 courses did not have any publications they could understand, the last publication being J.B Taylor Plastering.

Despite many attempts to get it published I resorted to self publishing, and since its launch it has sold all around the globe, obviously not recording the sales figures as a major publisher could achieve, but it shows that there is a market out there .This has come to light in the last couple of weeks with the eBook versions entering the top ten and now up to number 2 , so for any publisher reading this blog wake up smell the coffee and bring out a level 3 plastering book that the students can understand


ps I am available for a small fee, well not too small a fee as I only work part time now LOL

The NAPL Home of the Professional Plasterers




We have now had over 56,000 unique visitors since the launch in August, and with companies like Speedskim and Tomp’s offering discount on their products, this website has become the number one website for the Plastering Trade
We are more than just a forum, in fact the forum has never taken off, but the facility is there for visitors to use.
We offer tool discounts, teaching rescore and much more. The mission statement of the website was to unite the professional plasterers from around the world, and you only have to look at the quality of the members of this website to understand why we have members from three continents and new members joining each week.
 The website has launched its own newspaper The Plastering Tutor, which in time will take off just like the website has, and with the backing of companies like Tomp’s behind us the only way is up.

So here is to an exciting year ahead of us
