My Character Blog Tour
A few weeks ago, I was approached and offered the chance to take part in a Character Blog Tour. I was invited by fellow author, Shari Sakurai. So, before I get into this very fun project, here’s a little information on Shari herself.
Shari Sakurai has always loved to write and published her debut novel, Demon’s Blood, in January 2014. Demon’s Blood is the first of her planned vampire novels. Shari is very interested in other countries’ cultures and mythology; in particular Japan. Japa...

Upcoming – The Vector Series Novels
All or Nothing is currently with a publisher, the waiting continues – it comes with the territory – so in the meantime I’ve been working on other projects. For a while, I’ve wanted to write a series of novels, based on some amazing, developing characters who can’t fit into one book. It seemed only fitting that I do this with a genre that has inspired and intrigued me for years…the dystopian thriller.
Now, I mention thriller, because this is the go-to genre it seems. In my world, this...

The Customer Is Always… is FREE for this weekend on Amazon.
This week was supposed to see the self-published release of All or Nothing. However, the manuscript has since been selected by a potential publisher for a reading. Effectively, this could mean it will be published in the traditional way. Exciting times!
A few people are looking forward to All or Nothing. As an apology for the delay, this is a huge opportunity for me, I have decided to release my debut novella, The Customer Is Always…, for FREE this weekend. That’s right, for the entire...

All or Nothing – June 30
Hi All
Well, its literally a week – well, 6 days now – until I release All or Nothing. The book is finally ready to go.
The initial plan is to release on Kindle and Paperback, the latter determined by pricing etc. I’m just wrangling the pricing but when you have 442 pages or so of content, it becomes a little expensive.
Otherwise, that’s it. All or Nothing is released on June 30. The suffering will soon begin…

The Writing Process Blog Hop
After a few weeks of preparing a wedding, actually getting married and going on a mini honeymoon, it’s time to get back to the writing.

We answer a few questions, tag other authors and they do the same.
The author who tagged me is ShariSakurai, a British author who wrote Demon’s Blood, an original take on vampires,and theupcomingPerfect World. You...
