Hope you like it! Thanks again for writing a blurb for me. If you don't like it, you can always say something like, "the funniest book I ever read by this author, on a Tuesday in March of this year.
I chose the pen name because of the 'theme' that currently may or may not be put in. It looks like it may, but I'm not sure to what extent.
The book, while fiction, is based on events in my childhood, and those I've had as a parent. So the 'lessons learned' are true. But since the characters are fake (I didn't use my brothers names, my name, etc.), I didn't want somebody to read it, feel all warm and fuzzy, and then realize that maybe the whole thing was made up.
It's told from first person, Matthew Buckley, and he keeps this journal he calls 'book of injustices' (which by the way is probably not in the copy you have). He keeps track of everything that goes wrong, especially those things that directly stem from the fact that he is in a large family. By the end of the book, he realized that all of these things that go wrong maybe aren't that bad. It's just part of being in a family. And the idea is that my book, (Chickens in the Headlights) is written based on this Book of Injustices that Matthew is keeping.
So anyway, I took on the name of my character, and am publishing it under the name Matthew Buckley.
Besides, when Covenant authors take over the world, I'll have an alias.
If you want to read the book with the updates, let me know and maybe Angela or Melissa can send you a new one.
