Three more appearances before the year draws to a close

I've got three more appearances and talks to come before the year draws to a close. On 27 November I will be at Waterstones in Portsmouth between 12 noon and 2pm signing copies of my crime novels or just chatting to readers and anyone else who happens to pass by and is foolish enough to give me eye contact!

Then on 15 December I will be travelling to Broad Chalke in Salisbury to give a talk to the Women’s Institute, which is followed by a trip across the Solent to the Isle of Wight on 21 December to give a short talk and present the prizes to the adult winners of The Wight Fair Writers Circle, A Winter Short Story Writing Competition. Two of my crime novels are set on the Isle of Wight: Blood on the Sand, an Inspector Andy Horton marine mystery police procedural and In For The Kill, a stand alone thriller.

Then it’s looking ahead to 2011 and seeing what I’ve got lined up in the way of talks and guest appearances. This includes The London Book Fair 11-13 April 2011 and an appearance on a panel at the International Crimefest 19-22 May 2011 in Bristol. More on engagements for 2011 to follow and more information on my web site.

Chance to win a copy of a DI Andy Horton crime novel

This week there is the chance to win a copy of DI Andy Horton number eight, Death Lies Beneath, which is being offered on the Crime Readers Association (CRA) website

The CRA was set up in 2012 by members of the Crime Writers’ Association with the aim of bringing crime fiction fans a superb range of crime novels written by top authors, as well as providing informative and entertaining articles written by published crime authors. There's a great deal more on the CRA website including author events and a blog. Membership is free and includes a weekly newsletter as well as an edition of the CRA monthly magazine – Case Files.

What else is happening in March?

I'll be entertaining audiences with tales of murder, mystery and mayhem and explaining how I write my crime novels. I'll be speaking about the inspiration behind my crime novels, how I research and plot them and I'll be telling the audience about the creation of my flawed and rugged detective, DI Andy Horton.

Writing

On the writing front I will be busy working on three novels, yes, three. I'll be revising DI Andy Horton 12, writing DI Andy Horton 13, and plotting out the novel in my brand new series of crime novels with a new series hero.

I'll also be planning for the publication in April of the latest in the DI Andy Horton series, Shroud of Evil, which will be published in hardcover in the UK and Commonwealth. Shroud of Evil will be published in the USA in August 2014.
