HOT SPRINGS, Ark. - Aug. 5, 2015 - PRLog -- Writer, cartoonist, designer Rick London announced today the release of the 18th Anniversary Amazon Kindle book of his Londons Times Offbeat Cartoons (aka LTCartoons.com).  This is London’s fourth book and has a twist; funny quotes written by London.

You can see the book "Useless Humor: For All In Tents And Porpoises" at The book is 339 pages and sells for $2.99.  It is free to those with Amazon Prime or can be borrowed for free. http://www.amazon.com/Rick-London/e/B00AR5LQOC

Universal Press Syndicate's Dave Coverly says of Londons Times, "Congrats Rick of nearly 20 years of pure hilarity".

London says, "My story might not be all that newsworthy except that I have autism and Asperger’s (diagnosed very late at age 60), and several other disabilities, and have just started recovery from growing up in what he calls “A malignant narcissist family of origin” as the scapegoat child in his hometown of Hattiesburg, Ms."

London has participated in therapy and read Freud, Jung and Satir voraciously to learn of the triangulation/abuse he endured.  He was put in an "isolation containment unit in the attic" in which his father added walls to make it appear to be a bedroom, far on the other side of the home(s) from his other two siblings. This is a typical fingerprint of the NPD family model of isolating the scapegoat early in his life.

He also had undiagnosed autism/Asperger's and other disorders.  He has managed to overcome them to a certain degree. He says, "My wife Lee is a monumental support system....as are my friends and fans".  I don't allow abuse by a bully or even a bully's third party "flying monkey".  I report it immediately to the ADA (Americans With Disabilities Act).

Though early in his “scapegoat recovery”, he says he never looks back to the toxic narcissists and their “flying monkeys” as psychologists prefer to call them.

London says was orphaned at age 17, made to move out of his family home while still in high school,  His father,  who was in real estate, rented him a trailer at full-price.  His parents kept him controlled financially with isolation and his father gave him a menial job selling real estate on commission which (sometimes) brought in just enough to keep the lights on in his tiny apartment.

London says his life was a myriad of tragedies and near-tragedies and he, and his doctors are still wondering how he is alive today.

Not only is he alive, but he’s managed to create 4000+ cartoon images and about 150,000 gifts and greeting cards.  He also owns Rick London Designs which are designer gifts or famous historical figures and their most famous quotes.

London says his life changed on June 18th, 2010 when he married the woman of his dreams, Lee Hiller aka Lee Hiller-London who is best known for her Lee Hiller Designs (Nature/Wildlife Photography designer gifts), and Hike Our Planet, a very popular nature/wildlife photography blog. Her work can be seen at http://LeeHiller.com.   Her work has been recognized by the state governor and the National Park System.

London and his wife decided to go vegan about 3-4 years ago and never looked back.  Both mountain hike regularly, do tai chi, and have a great affinity for nature and wildlife.  Lee makes a morning smoothie each day from organic fruits and veggies after their hikes which London says “is my fuel”.  She is publishing a smoothie recipe book scheduled for release by November.

London’s LTCartoons.com has been the number one Google ranked offbeat cartoons and offbeat cartoon gifts since 2005.

His books are mostly available at Amazon and but his first book (a coffee table offering) is also available at Barnes and Noble titled Salad Bar Exam.
