Her demonic Angel and other short stories
The Kindle edition of Her demonic Angel and other short stories is FREE on Amazon today, 31st July.
Published in 2016, Her demonic Angel is a baker’s dozen of my short stories. Written in a variety of genres, there should be something for everyone. Some tales are stranger than others, but all are different shades of dark. Despite its slightly suggestive title, Her demonic Angel is not erotica.
Her demonic Angel is available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle editions and is also on Audible, Amazon and iTunes as an audiobook. Another of my eight books, The Hostile, is also available as an audiobook on the same sites as Her demonic Angel audiobook.

More exciting news
I received two exciting pieces of news this morning. I had emailed Suzanne at Oldham main Library a few weeks ago to ask if the library might be interested in including any of my eight books on their shelves. As I had not heard back, I assumed that she would not be interested. However, Suzanne has just emailed me to say that she had been extremely busy but would indeed like me to send her copies of my books for her to assess. I immediately organised for Amazon to deliver six of my books to her in the next day or so. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed that one, some or all will be deemed acceptable. I am glad that I recently redesigned all of my books and republished them with new covers. They now stand a much better chance of being accepted.
In her email, Suzanne also invited me to be one of the guest speakers at BBC #LovetoRead Weekend on 5th November 2016 at Oldham Main Library. I will be asked to give a talk about my writing career and my books, plus answer questions from the audience. She told me that I can also sell my books at the event. I look forward to hearing which other authors will be speaking at this local event. Hopefully, I will already know some of them.
I doubt that book nine, the sequel to The Hostile, will be published by November, but you never know. I have so far written 15,000 words of the current book and it is progressing very well. It is unimportant whether it is published by then because I have more than enough books to bring along. As my books are printed on demand, I hope I will be given a rough indication of how many will be attending. As well as bringing enough copies of my books to sell at the library, I will definitely be bringing a bundle of my promotion postcards to hand out. Maybe I can have a box of my books delivered to the library beforehand. That would make sense as I live alone, cannot drive and have a chronic back condition. Lugging boxes of books to the library is not really an option.
These two pieces of news from Suzanne have certainly made my week. I have also been encouraged by the number of listeners, mostly from America, who have recently been requesting promo codes from me through Audiobook Boom for my two audiobooks, Her demonic Angel and The Hostile. I await their reviews on Audible with bated breath.

Shocked and delighted.
I'm in shock. Last night, I received a message on Facebook from Tobias Van De Peer, someone I have not seen for over ten years. He told me that he has recorded himself narrating the first chapter of my thriller, Random Bullets, on Soundcloud. He is a talented musician, actor, voice artiste and all-round performer. I am amazed and thrilled that he took the time in his busy life to record a chapter of my book.
I think that Toby has done a fantastic job. What do you think? I know that he had enjoyed reading the book, but I am delighted that he likes it enough to also narrate it. Here is the link to the SoundCloud file of Toby narrating Chapter One of my Random Bullets that he has just sent me: https://soundcloud.com/tobiasva…/rand.... I don't know if the link will work on Goodreads. I asked Toby if I could share it on my social media and he kindly agreed.
My thanks go out to Toby, for taking the time to make such a wonderful job of narrating the first chapter of Random Bullets. It is my favourite book of the eight that I have written. I was planning to narrate Random Bullets myself, just as I have done with Her demonic Angel and The Hostile audiobooks. I reckon he narrates my books better than I do, ha! I'm looking forward to hearing him narrate the rest of my Random Bullets. Coincidentally, the Kindle edition of Random Bullets is free on Amazon on 18th and 19th July.

I've just received my updated edition of 'A Slice of the Seventies'
Flicking through my recently redesigned and republished copy of 'A Slice of the Seventies' that the postman delivered this week. The poor man has had a busy time, as I have received newly redesigned paperbacks of all of my books through the post this week. I'm delighted with the results and it was well worth the huge amount of effort to personally redo the eight covers and update the end matter in both paperback and Kindle formats.
There's a small picture of Jimi Hendrix amidst the other cover images on 'A Slice of the Seventies'. Some might say that Hendrix is more 60s than 70s, but I saw him play live at the Isle of Wight Music Festival in the summer of 1970, a few weeks before he died at such a young age. I write about the Festival and many other things in my memoir, 'A Slice of the Seventies'. It is the first book in my loosely autobiographical Mug Trilogy. 'The Lying Scotsman' and 'Straws' are the others in the series.
The Kindle version is £0.99 on Amazon until 31st July along with all my other Kindle editions. I still prefer paperbacks and that's why I made paperback versions as well as Kindles for each of my eight books
A Slice of the Seventies.

All of my Kindles now £0.99
The Kindle editions of all of my fiction books are now £0.99 on Amazon until 31st July. My one non-fiction book, Living with Postcards, is £1.54 until then. http://amzn.to/1WuzgXp Don't say I don't give you anything.
If you are clueless which ones to pick, I suggest Random Bullets, The Hostile ... oh, and Potholes and Magic Carpets ... and of course there's Her demonic Angel if you like short stories ... oh, just buy the lot, ha ha! At this price, it won't bankrupt you.

My 'Random Bullets' kindle is free today!
The Kindle edition of my 2015 thriller, Random Bullets, is FREE on Amazon today, 18th June.
After shooting and killing his nephew, a gunman runs wild in a London park. What drives Edward to commit such heinous acts? Who will survive yet another of his moments of madness? The action takes place in Jersey, Cornwall, Manchester, London and other places not of this world. Set in 2015, Random Bullets is a thriller with a fantasy twist.
Random Bullets is still my favourite book out of all eight books that I have published. One of its main themes has impacted hugely on my life and will continue to do so until I am no more, and probably beyond.

Hello there, I discovered your blog by means of Google while looking for a similar topic, your site got here up, it appears to be like great. I have bookmarked it in my google bookmarks.
A perfect day
June 10th 2016 was not only the day that my beloved daughter, Zoe Mutter, married Christian Blyth in Ilfracombe, Devon, but it was also the day that the audiobook of The Hostile went live on Audible, Amazon and iTunes. As with my audiobook of Her demonic Angel, an iTunes copy is half the price of the Audible and Amazon copies. To be honest, I was so enchanted and involved with celebrating the spectacular wedding that I hardly noticed that The Hostile audiobook, narrated by me, is now for sale or free download until I returned home on 13th June.
On 8th June, I flew to Exeter from Manchester, stayed a night in Exeter with my 86-year-old mother, who had flown from Jersey for her granddaughter's wedding. We then caught a taxi (£110!) to Ilfracombe. At least we could share the cab fare. The rain luckily held off until after the outdoor ceremony overlooking sea, then it hammered down as we enjoyed a Lionel Richie themed reception. There was even a Lionel Richie cake and a Lionel Richie conga. It has been a magical, perfect six days that I will remember forever.
I am now back in Oldham, slightly shell-shocked and slowly recovering from the meticulously planned festivities, gradually sliding back into my normal life of writing books and trying my best to market them, whilst bracing myself to start writing book nine, a sequel to The Hostile. Oh, did I mention that The Hostile audiobook went live on iTunes, Amazon and Audible last Friday?Joy Mutter
