Vancouver, WA (December 22, 2011) – General contractor, mortgage broker and real estate agent Jerry Hibbs has written a new book titled, "The Hilarious Adventures of the Home Handyman" (ISBN-10: 0615541798; ISBN-13: 978-0615541792).

The 178-page book showcases amusing calamities faced by the average man who sets out to improve his home and details some of the difficulties encountered by non-professionals during seemingly simple home projects, according to a press release distributed by Mass Media Distribution LLC.

Do-It-Yourself Disasters

Through a series of anecdotes based on Hibbs' experience as a general contractor, the book demonstrates that even the simplest job can lead to surprising consequences. It is loosely structured around the misadventures of a few neighbors who engage in projects ranging from the remodeling of a basement to painting the house.

As many do-it-yourselfers surely have encountered, the book describes seemingly endless trips to the hardware store and the dawning realization that some jobs are better left to professionals.

Messes in the Making

"Mostly it's a mess, but these guys have a lot of fun being the home handyman," according to Hibbs. "They try, but often mess up their projects, something every professional contractor has seen many times."

The book reportedly also highlights the humorous tensions that arise between home handymen and their spouses over countless hours and money spent on projects. The publisher describes the book as intended for anyone who knows what it's like to have a do-it-yourself project spiral out of control.

"The Hilarious Adventures of the Home Handyman" is available for sale through various online channels, as noted on the “Best Buy Gift for Dad Handyman” website (Click Here). www.massmediadistribution.com
