MS Books and Games official launch happened as planned on the 12th June. The night was a great success with Matthew launching his books through a presentation / chat about self-publishing. This was followed by Diane from Big Sky Publishing who provided some great insights into publishing through a tradition publisher.

A BIG Thank You to everyone involved.
