What is mikeharding.co.uk?

mikeharding.co.uk is the official website of Mike Harding, described there as a singer, songwriter, comedian, author, poet, broadcaster and multi-instrumentalist. The site presents his creative work, with a current focus on his short story book series, and includes an online store where visitors can pre-order or buy his books.

What you'll find on the site

The homepage centres on Sahib Stories, the fourth volume in a planned six-book collection of short stories, each with its own theme. According to the site, it was published on 5 November, and the first 250 copies of each book are offered as signed, limited editions available exclusively through the website's online store.

The stories draw on Harding's travels. Settings include France and Germany ("The Cowardly Barber"), Nepal ("A Sahib Story"), and the USA, Ireland, Pakistan and Nepal. In his introduction, Harding credits several people who helped shape the tales, including Michael Vaughan of West Clare for the bones of "Moscow Riley," a Navajo man named Maurice Chee whose name is used for a guide in a story set in an American Redstone park, and the late folk singer Wizz Jones, who appears in a story about busking in France.

Who it's for

• Readers of Harding's fiction who want to follow the six-book series or secure a signed limited edition.
• Fans of his wider career in music, comedy and broadcasting who want an official source for his work.
• People checking authenticity — this is the site Harding himself uses to announce and sell his books.

Practical notes

Purchases go through the site's online store and checkout. The page evidence confirms a checkout exists but does not state prices, shipping terms or whether an account is required, so check those details on the store pages before ordering. If a signed limited edition matters to you, the site's "first 250 copies" framing suggests acting early rather than assuming availability later.
