hi everybody,
Its Hype Time!

I'm hyped for several reasons. No, its not because Lebron James hit a buzzer beating lay-up in overtime to win in the Eastern Conference finals, (though thats pretty awesome anyway).
I'm hyped because I'm about to launch my new website leejmavin.com and release my book T... Read more of this blog post »

Throughout my childhood we had baxi fires in our house and I knew how to light those fires – with scrunched-up (but not too tightly) newspaper and those pale, uniform sticks laid on top, then strike a match, light the paper…play about with that metal handle thing that controlled the dr...

Een paar dagen geleden kreeg ik het leuke nieuws dat van mijn roman ALLES IS TE KOOP een tweede druk verschijnt. Heerlijk nieuws om te krijgen en ook bijzonder. Dit boek had namelijk een slechte start. Het verscheen eind 2012 maar werd om de een of andere reden niet opgenomen door het NBD/Biblion... Read more of this blog post »

Welcome to Friday. It’s another bank holiday Monday in the UK and a half-term holiday for the kids. Lucky me. As much as I enjoy a break from the mad get-up-get-dressed-and-rush-out-the-door-in-time-for-school routine, it also means I don’t get a break from the kids, which lets be honest we all n...

With sincere thanks to all my readers, I am now able to live my dream as a full time author.
Not many of us are so privileged.

It's a Friday and I'm becoming used to Friday's being gloomy and full of irritations. Oh joy! Fast forward to the weekend. I'm going to get a few things off my chest since I've spent thousands of hours writing, editing and promoting.

1) For the avoidance of doubt where Sean Yeager book blurbs stat... Read more of this blog post »

In this new video I'm talking to Tony Smith about the latest DI Andy Horton mystery crime novel, Undercurrent, set in the Solent area of Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight on the South Coast of England and about the flawed and rugged detective DI Andy Horton. It was recorded in March 2013

It feels strange not having to revise the stories now that the collection is published. Some of the tales have been with me since 2009. RISING AROMAS, for example, has probably been revised over 50 times. I could have kept making edits to the longer stories for all eternity, but the time had come... Read more of this blog post »

Eating disorders are not a "Slimmer's disease," fashion accessory or attention seeking behaviour. They are a symptom of high levels of stress or other profound emotional or psychological issues.

Eating disorders lead to a negative lifestyle, totally dominating every waking hour and having a devast... Read more of this blog post »

I've posted about this on Facebook, but I wanted to write something slightly more coherent and complete. This is a very important issue for both romance readers and writers, so please, share this post with your friends. Shout it from the roof tops. Barnes and Noble aren't replying to my emails, s...

Today someone purchased a copy of Diane at Fifteen... Ironically, I wrote in my blog on May 3 that I have two autographed copies of that book sitting here beside me, ready to be given away. I've been trying to get rid of them for 20 days. Right after posting that offer (which was deleted yesterda... Read more of this blog post »

Dear Readers,

While doing research for another project on the Animal Planet website, I came across a sci-fi "documentary" called MERMAIDS: THE BODY FOUND. It talks about mermaid folklore and digitally creates what hominids would have looked like if a segment of our ancestors had evolved in the sea... Read more of this blog post »

Tap Dance was posted to Smashwords today.
It only took me four hours and eight gazillions reads of my 'Smashwords Checklist', but I did it.

That's the last of them that needed to go there and I, for one, am happy.

In a world where millions of books are available, I suspect most authors would be happy just to know someone read their book. Knowing a reader didn’t just read their book but actually liked it would be the icing on the cake. Knowing a reader loved it…well, that would create some seriously warm an...

I have settled on a title and cover for my YA fantasy/sci-fi novel that will come out in August.

What time of the day are you best, creatively?

I have always been a night writer, possibly because it’s a homophone of Knight Rider, and I’ve always wanted to be a permed man with a sentient Trans-Am. I do my writing at night, I do my pseudo-writing – editing, research, PR stuff – during the day....
