Just a quick note to let you know that if you haven't got a copy of my short story collection Pieces of a Rainbow, you can get it for 99 cents on Amazon.com or 77p on Amazon.co.uk. This price is going to be available for about a week or until I change my mind lol. I have noticed that people have been buying this book more than any of my others in the last month, so I thought it would be nice to make it available cheaper for those who want it.

Enjoy!

I realise I haven't blogged much here recently, sorry... To make up for it I'm going to fill you in with lots of interesting stuff that's been going on in the book world. When I say 'the' book world, I mean 'my' book world of course. Not only my books, but books by my favourite authors.

It's been an exciting few months with lots of my favourite authors releasing new books. One I must mention straight away is a FREE Kindle book that came out today! It's Nine Lives



Beautiful cover, isn't it?

You can get a free copy for your Kindle for the next few days from Amazon.

I've read You Wish... and The Other Side, by Terry Tyler, and would not hesitate to recommend both of those to anyone who loves a good book.

Here's the link to Amazon.com, but it's available worldwide: http://www.amazon.com/Nine-Lives-Terr...

Other notable new releases this month are:






I'm looking forward to reading all of those.

Recent books I've read that I would recommend are:







Ooh... I've just realised there's kind of a cat theme going on here, what with Terry Tyler's book cover, Jason Mcintyre's new release, and 'Four Paws', alongside 'Kiwi in Cat City' :)

I'm currently reading, and enjoying, 13, by Julie Elizabeth Powell - a dark fiction/horror novel that really shows how great this author's imagination is (oddly enough, there's a cat in this book too!).



Julie has one of her books on sale until Christmas, Knowing Jack is a wonderful adventure story, and only 99cents at the moment. Here's the link to the book on Amazon.com (it's also available at the reduced price in worldwide Amazon stores): http://www.amazon.com/Knowing-Jack-Ju...




Books that have been sitting on my Kindle for far too long (and which I hope to read very soon), include:

... and about 100 others ;)





Books that I've heard will be released soon and that I'm looking forward to, are:

The Christmas Spirit, by Susan Buchanan



Keep an eye on her blog for the release date: http://www.susancbuchanan.blogspot.co.uk

Fastian, by Jay Finn



Again, details of the release date should be on his blog soon: http://jayfinnauthor.wordpress.com

1. A writer I met at The Literary Consultancy's recent conference, Laxmi Hariharan, has started writing a series of short stories on UK Asia Online. You can read Bombay Shorts and follow the series, at the following link: http://www.ukasiaonline.com/features-dp1

My writing

Now, a quick update on my own writing. I've been busy editing A Time to Tell, for a second edition. I have a brand new cover for it too, designed by Aeternum Designs http://aeternumdesigns.com/. I'm hoping to be revealing that soon.

I would imagine the book will be released in the early part of 2014.

I'm also working on a new short story collection, as yet untitled, but might be called 'Far Away in Time', which is the title of one of the stories.

Although I haven't yet finished the collection, I think there will be 10 short stories altogether. I have written 7 of those already, and have written the beginnings of the other 3 stories. I'm looking forward to sharing these stories with you all. They range from fantasy to dark fiction.

That's all for now.
