Hi, my best mate, Tyler Knoll, is a bit shy
and hates having to tell everyone how great his book is, so I offered to write
this blog for him. Thanks so much for the invite.
Who am I? Well, most of my friends call me
Dilbert. You'd think I'd be offended at being compared to a nerdy cartoon
character, but it's much better than my real name, so I don't give a rat's arse.
As long as they don't call me Dil.
Tyler and me got on like a house on fire right
from the start. Unlike some of the other guys I met when I arrived in the
States, he was fair dinkum. A real bonzer bloke. At first we thought we were
speaking different languages. What with his Southern drawl and my ocker accent,
but after we spent a few Friday evenings, chewing the fat and sharing a few
tinnies, we did just fine.
There were a few misunderstandings though.
I still can't get over the fact that you can't drink alcohol until you're
twenty one. How backward is that? But then if I had known, I'd never have
invited Tyler along on that memorable Friday night, and our lives would have
turned out quite differently.
So there you have it, my mate Tyler. He may
not be Aussie, but he's true blue. Some guys think he's a few shrimp short of a
barbie, and spends half his time away with the pixies, but they're barking up
the wrong tree. The thing is, Tyler doesn't say much. It wasn't until I read this
book that I realized his brain is going flat chat and his mouth can't keep up.
Don't believe me? Read the book and you'll
see what I mean! You won't regret it.
At times it's side-splittingly funny. Or at
least giggleworthy. Mind you some of the situations Tyler found himself in weren't
funny at all. He came a gutser on more than one occasion. But he's like one of
those toys that bounces back no matter how hard you push him. I had to
intervene every now and then, otherwise some of the pricks he met would have
walked right over him.
Some people accuse me of being manipulative,
but I can assure you that I always had Tyler's best interests at heart. The
trouble is that because he doesn't have a mean bone in his body, he doesn't realize
other people are not as nice.
Take Rupert for example. I was furious when
I discovered he set Tyler up. Threw him to the wolves or wolf in this instance.
Extricating Tyler from that predicament took some tough negotiating on my part.
Then there was that dickhead Gareth Evans who virtually kidnapped him. I
suspected Tyler was in trouble, but what could I do? Still he survived
thankfully.
After that I kept a closer eye on him. A
much closer eye. I think it was worth it in the end. Why don't you do yourself
a favour and read the book to find out for yourself.
May I close by saying a big thank you on
Tyler's behalf. While he was too shy to appear on the blog, I'm sure he'd be
happy to answer any questions you might like to ask.

Synopsis
Tyler Knoll
was born one wild, stormy night in April 2013.
Of course,
Tyler might tell you he was born twenty years earlier, but should we believe
anything he says? That’s for you to decide.
In Tyler’s
first adventure—like many a gay man before him—he was SNARED by gay porn, wallowing
in tales of bigger, stronger, harder….
Then his
fickle mind was seduced and SHREDDED by the prospect of BDSM and slavery.
When a Big
Misunderstanding SLASHED at Tyler’s sanity, almost costing him his life, he
turned to another genre for his salvation. But even this encounter proved
potentially hazardous—not from freezing temperatures, but at the hands of irate
fans.
Finally,
tired and SCREWED by his all his trials and tribulations, he discovers—like
many storybook heroes before him—that sometimes Mr. Right is closer than we
think.

Tyler, I read Just for Fun and Dilbert doesn't sound anything like that in the book. Does he really talk like that and if he does, why isn't it reflected in Just for Fun?
