New Cozy Mystery Soon and Gifts
My new Storage Ghost Murder Mystery will be published soon! It's the longest book so far in this series and is about twice the length of 'The Last Reading'. I've hired a cover designer who has created some wonderful 'cozy' mystery covers for other writers. She's presently searching for the right images for Grace and Pearl, I think they would look great together on the book cover. I can't wait to see what she finds.
When the book is ready I'm going to publish it at no cost on Smashwords, Google Books etc. It takes a bit longer for it to be free on Amazon. I will let you know when it is available.
I've recently subscribed to author websites so I can see how they run their businesses. No, I'm not nosy - just curious. I like it when I get a free book in exchange for my email and I thought I should do the same for my lovely subscribers. The book I'd like to give out is 'A Different Shade Of Death' which is a novella in the Storage Ghost Murder series. Unfortunately, I'm locked into an Amazon agreement with this book until 20th December which means I can't give it out until then. So, if you have already subscribed you will be receiving a complimentary PDF of the book. Of course, any new subscribers will receive it after the 20th December too.
I was also thinking that any subsequent books I release should be priced at a lower cost for a week or two so that my subscribers and readers of my blog can get it at a good price. I like getting a bargain and I'm sure you do too. I shall keep you updated.

Free Paranormal Cozy ebook
I've got a couple of new books out, the first of which is permanently free on Amazon, and the other one is going to be free for five days soon.
The permanently free one is called 'The Last Reading' and is part of the Storage Ghost Mystery series. This one is different because there is a murder mystery for Grace to solve. I hope you like it and I hope you don't guess who the murderer is too soon!
Amazon ComAmazon UK
The one that is going to be free is 'A Different Shade Of Death'. It will be free for 5 days starting on the 19th September 2014. I got the idea from something mentioned on a UK quiz show called 'Pointless'. I love that show and I've learnt all sorts since I started watching it. I won't tell you what the item was that was mentioned but you'll probably guess what it was by the end of the book. I hope you enjoy it.
Amazon ComAmazon UK
I must say thank you to all the people who have left lovely reviews on Amazon and other places, I appreciate it so much and it encourages me to write more. The above book is longer than my previous ones and I think it's now time for me to write a full length novel. I feel that I've been strengthening my 'writing muscle' with my shorter stories - it's now time for me to do more!Please feel free to get in touch with me at any time.

Storage Ghosts Boxset
I've been really busy with my writing recently, especially with the storage ghosts stories. I must say thank you to all the people who've posted great reviews about these stories. It's always a worry for me to release new stories and seeing what people think!
The 5th story for the Storage Ghosts Mystery is 'Daisy's Chain'.
Amazon ComAmazon UK
I've also put together a box set of the stories at a price of $3.99 which is a good saving (about 50%) over buying the books individually.

I've now got a sign up option on this site - to the right. If you want to hear about my new releases please feel free to sign up.I'm now working on longer stories for the Storage Ghost Mysteries which will involve Grace trying to solve murders - again, with the help of ghosts. I'm not sure how she's going to do it yet, I've got 'plot points' all over my desk at the moment. I know who committed the murder but I have to hide the clues somehow ...
