It's good stuff, very sad, very thrilling... Here is a first look at the characters that will make up the paranormal investigation team:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/THaeD3fU7mI/AAAAAAAAACg/OQX470mybHc/s1600/newbookall.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 280px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/THaeD3fU7mI/AAAAAAAAACg/OQX470mybHc/s400/newbookall.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509764983406521954" border="0" /></a>Jeff Manleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16755508337254290596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8035366543788144915.post-50186016759138724872010-08-14T10:50:00.000-07:002010-08-20T17:17:26.404-07:00It's been awhile...<div style="text-align: center;">So, It's been since end of May and no updates? I've been super busy (easy excuse) and I know this site will really get going the closer I get to finishing the books. "Books", you say. I've started an all ages book that involves ghosts and werewolves and maybe even prehensile hair... Still early in it's development, more later. So, The Manleys get fit is still going well, a couple pages a month and I should be done early 2012 (just in time for the end of the world).</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Now for the pitch:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Manley-Days-Jeffery-James/dp/1451541155/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1281808597&sr=8-1">Go here and buy my book.</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/TGbZTuMDZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/bTSvaN5AejM/s1600/book2.jpg"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/TGbZTuMDZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/bTSvaN5AejM/s400/book2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505326527346337602" style="text-align: center;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 285px; height: 400px; " /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Jeff Manleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16755508337254290596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8035366543788144915.post-15225631883227510712010-05-25T14:29:00.000-07:002010-05-25T14:33:17.131-07:00All Pages So Far.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/S_xB6k5VXxI/AAAAAAAAACQ/OEI1me8QWLw/s1600/allsofar6bkg.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 385px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/S_xB6k5VXxI/AAAAAAAAACQ/OEI1me8QWLw/s400/allsofar6bkg.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475323721568050962" /></a><br />Okay, you guys took advantage of me, and I am not too happy about it. I've been posting all the pages I've done so far as a way for you to judge my progress and get a taste for the way the pages are looking. But, with the last post I realized that you could click on the image and then zoom in and read all the pages clearly! That is not what I wanted to happen... so as of now, I am making my file sizes smaller. Nothing in life is free people, you want to read this book, you will have to buy the book when it is finished!Jeff Manleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16755508337254290596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8035366543788144915.post-53219892164880086492010-05-18T14:58:00.000-07:002010-05-18T15:03:12.799-07:00All Pages So Far.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/S_MOPnYGk2I/AAAAAAAAACI/NGJWMPjl6js/s1600/allsofar5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 332px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Em5cXFu8o/S_MOPnYGk2I/AAAAAAAAACI/NGJWMPjl6js/s400/allsofar5.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472733633616188258" /></a><br />Just yesterday I took my page count to 10... and now today I am taking it all the way to 12!

I'm very excited about this project. I think it is going to connect to a lot of people that struggle with weight issues. And for those skinny people out there, maybe they will just think my drawings are pretty and the story is funny.
