Video and MP3 launch date
Well, it all happens at once: Avril Field-Taylor, kind soul, has produced a video for me. Do click on the link in the heading and have a smile. I can't wait for some time of my own to play.
News! Finally the mp3 of Hostage of the Heart is being launched on 21 June. The cover is so different from the ebook.... I think I need to dedicate time to the latter.

Life and Newsletters

The Indie Spotlight Interview
I'm being interviewed on The Indie Spotlight today about how I came to write Torc of Moonlight, and explaining some of the fact behind the fiction. Do you throw coins into a wishing well? Ah, thought you might...
Climbing back into the saddle..
Sheesh, what a few weeks! But there again, everyone gets them. It was merely my turn. Life is beginning to calm down now so I'm climbing back into the saddle. Or at least putting my head above the parapet. Don't you just love the turn of phrase here? Don't answer that!
Thought I'd add to my blog here to say that today I'm being interviewed across on The Indie Spotlight, explaining how I came to write Torc of Moonlight, and some of the factual research behind the fiction. Come join me across there.

Short Story Competition - Prizes Galore!
It's that time of year once more: the La Scala Short Story Competition is upon us, and yet again I've been strong-armed into offering sponsorship. LOL.
No, honest, it's an honour to be asked. I recall with perfect clarity earlier in my career when writers took the time to sit and listen, to offer advice, to nudge me a little further down the path I wasn't sure was mine; people like Barry Hines,
