Hi, I'm Jonathan Stubbs. I'm 39, married, and live on the Wirral (uk) with my wife and two young daughters. The Tributary is my first novel. It is currently listed as a giveaway and as an excerpt, but I'm keen to provide it to as many readers as possible, whom if interested, would kindly provide an honest critique in return. Being proud of your work is not enough in pursuing any kind of a dream of being a writer. Only the honest views and opinions of likeminded readers (strangers, or people I don't know, as a more kindly way to put it - people whom I've no doubt are very nice and normal and knowledgeable) will cut it.

Jonathan’s Quotes

“Humanity is identity. All men are made of the same clay. No difference, here below at least, in predestination. The same darkness before, the same flesh during, the same ashes after. But when ignorance is mixed with human dough, it blackens it. This incurable blackness takes over man’s insides and there turns into evil… Destroy the dark hold, Ignorance, and you destroy the mole, Crime.”
― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
