Toast on Toast
Toast on Toast is the must-have book for all budding actors - and non-actors too. In this part memoir, part 'how to act' manual, Steven Toast draws on his vast and varied experiences, providing the reader with an invaluable insight into his journey from school plays to RADA, and from 'It's a Right Royal Knockout' to the Colony Club. Along the way, he reveals the secrets of his success. He discloses how to brush up on and expand your technical and vocal skills, how to nail a professional voiceover, and how to deal with difficult work experience staff in a recording studio. He also reveals the dangers of typecasting, describes the often ruthless struggle for 'top billing', and shares many awesome nuggets of advice. The end result is a book that will inspire and educate anyone who wants to tread the floorboards. It will also inform (and entertain) anybody who simply wants to discover what a jobbing actor's life is actually like.

Signalling Revenge
The Ohio & Kentucky Railroad is coming to the dead-end town of Nopoint but one man stands in its way: Matt Berry, owner of the town's freight and passenger company. He is persuaded that his stagecoach business has had its day but he doesn't like the heavy-handed, grabbing ways of the railroad company and is determined to hold out against the might of big business. When the going gets tough two footloose cowpokes, Jim Dawson and Brad Cook, are hired as shooters to protect him. But they are up against the brutal fixer hired by the Railroad, Daniel Blanche. Thrown into the mix is a whore-house floozy, under whose spell all three men fall. Murder, mayhem and betrayal follow. Is this all the future there can ever be for a town that already calls itself 'Nopoint'?
