Daddy 3.0: A Comedy of Errors

2017 Independent Author Network Winner - Best Comedy/Satire Novel

What a mess. This was not supposed to happen.

This isn't where Nick Owen thought he would be by this point in life. He used to be a busy web programmer. Now, he spends most of his energy trying to stop his three-year-old twins from playing in a dirty sand pit. Nick thinks of himself as Daddy 3.0, a stay-at-home dad - but he just wasn't programmed for this.

He must navigate a new world of jungle gyms and play dates while supporting his surgeon wife. He tries his best to be there for the twins, but he can't stop making a mess of things. He's just about nearing the end of his rope when the Swing Incident happens. The Swing Incident, spoken of in hushed tones around Nick's New York City apartment building, has caused the resident queen bee, nicknamed "Supermom", to declare him an enemy for life. No matter what Nick does to get back into Supermom's good graces, he fails spectacularly.

Now, Nick's going to have to learn to fight fire with fire and become the best super-parent on the block. This hilarious new book by Rob Armstrong chronicles one man's journey into the world of modern fatherhood - one botched haircut, playground fight, and dirty diaper at a time.

Stay-at-home dads have a new hero, of sorts.
