DIYFather.com publishes first book "Call Me Dad!"

Yes, yes yes ... the rumours are true ... we wrote a book last year and it got published last week. This week it is available at most high street stores in New Zealand and it will hit the shelves in the UK next month. Major online book retailers have also started selling it ... so "the word" is out! Have a look at our dedicated page for "Call Me Dad!" to find out more and check out the official media release.

Meanwhile we had a bit of a reflection on the writing process ... like the high lights and low lights (and everything in-between) of writing a book in this podcast. Despite the struggles and difficulties of pulling it all off in time and to everyone's liking, a sense of achievement remains and everyone at DIYFather.com is really excited about getting the book out. So a big THANK YOU to all the contributors and everyone who helped with the book! A special thanks of course goes to our children, partners and families for being there for us (and sticking with us) throughout the whole process

Thanks everyone reading this for spreading "the word" ... and if you live in Wellington, come along to our LAUNCH PARTY for drinks and nibbles on February 18th, 6pm at Dymocks on Lampton Quay.

The DIYFather Book Call Me Dad! Media Release

Call me Dad! A Manual for new fathers
By Stefan Korn, Scott Lancaster, Eric Mooij

There are thousands of parenting books out there, but when three Wellington guys became dads, they quickly realized there was nothing that spoke directly to them as men. They wanted something easy to read, instructional without being overly academic and providing a male perspective on all the stuff first-time dads need to know. Call Me Dad! is written for a new generation of men, to address this lack. Fathers are now much more deeply involved. More and more dads are no longer content with traditional, stereotyped roles and are questioning their contribution to the upbringing of their children.

Finally a practical book for new dads is available - it's called "Call Me Dad!" and it was written by the three directors of DIYFather.com, Scott, Eric and Stefan. "Call Me Dad!" is packed with information on everything from pregnancy and preparing for the baby, to the end of that first unbelievable year. The book is based on our own experiences of fatherhood and includes lots of tips and real life stories from the global DIYFather community of fathers.



Call Me Dad!, the best selling dad book is essential reading for new fathers and every guy who is about to enter fatherhood! It was specifically written by fathers for fathers and provides a unique take on parenthood from a male perspective.
