As far as book blurbs go, I've tried almost everything. There have been long ones, short ones, the original one from my publisher (a few of them really pissed me off because they gave away too much). I've had blurbs with quotes from other authors. There've been blurbs with a logline or a hook line … Continue reading The long and the short

Legendary
Quite liking the latest single from Bon Jovi. 🙂 Yes, I will add a Spotify link at the end of this post. How are ya? You good?I've spent most of the day checking and adding links to my universal links. It's time consuming. The joy is though ... my paperbacks are available from far more … Continue reading Legendary
Do you believe in magic?
There is a kind of magic that happens when I'm writing. Words appear on the page and they make sense, if that isn't magic I don't know what is. 🙂 I'm getting ready for the launch of [Foxtrot Mike Lima], you might've read something about that, there are a few things that I need to … Continue reading Do you believe in magic?
There’s a warm wind blowing …
We are one-step closer to the physical launch of [Foxtrot Mike Lima]. Would've been nicer if the courier hadn't jammed a parcel that really was a bit big, rigid, and hard to grab into the letterbox. Instructions were clear on the bag "Leave by front door" ... had a feeling they'd take the easy road … Continue reading There’s a warm wind blowing …
First We Take Manhattan
Big thanks to Leonard Cohen for today's blog title. Yes, I will link you to the song at the end of this post. Leonard Cohen has a special place in my heart. Anywho, that's not the purpose of this post. This morning I created the Event page on Facebook for [Foxtrot Mike Lima]. That means … Continue reading First We Take Manhattan
I Got You Babe.
The last week and a bit has been busy. Adding new ISBNs to the FBI-Byte Series paperbacks, reformatting, and creating new covers, then having to create all new graphics to reflect the new covers. The books are also on a new platform and I no longer have to deal with Amazon to get print copies. … Continue reading I Got You Babe.
I don’t know how you do it …
I don't know how you write (if you are a writer), I only know how my process works. I know this because I've been writing the same way for a very long time. Frighteningly long. Thirty years long. My process is simple. I see a scene and write it. I see my characters going about … Continue reading I don’t know how you do it …
What’s a proof?
Easy, it's a mock-up of the final book. See, easy?Its purpose is to check the formatting, check the story, check the cover, and make sure everything is where it should be. It is ALMOST the final product. Almost, but it's NOT for sale yet and it's not had its last minute tweaks.Some of you know … Continue reading What’s a proof?
The race is on …
Currently a proof from Amazon and a proof from Draft2Digital are winging their way to me. This morning it seemed like the D2D proof would win but now it looks like the Amazon one might be in the lead. One is coming from Sydney (Amazon) the other from Melbourne (D2D). It's an exciting race, to … Continue reading The race is on …
