Latest News re my books

I am delighted to announce the success of two of my audio books, A Dangerous Love Affair & Fatal Love. These like my latest published book Suzy's Dilemma, is a romance story mixed with erotica.
From what I can see audio books are a great way for an author to gain more publicity. All being well Suzy's Dilemma will be made into an audiobook early next year.

In the meantime, I wish all at Goodreads and members a very Happy Christmas. May the New Year bring Health Happiness & Success.

Best regards

Colin Guest

My new audiobooks

I am delighted to say that since my last post I have had three of my books made into audiobooks via Amazon ACX. These are, Terror Holiday, a short story re the attempted coup here in Turkey in 2016. see link https://www.audible.com/pd/B07HBCS7MB...
Impending Disaster, a fiction book, that I sincerely does not happen in real life. see link https://www.audible.com/pd/B07H5RQ37W... The story is while three friends are on a sightseeing trip, their plane crashes on top of a mountain. While on their way down to the town below, they make a discovery that leads to most of the inhabitants below being saved from a watery grave. With all the cutbacks in public services, the story shows that the money saved, is sometimes far outweighed by the loss of lives and destruction of property
The third audiobook is my latest book, Desperation Rules the Day. see link https://www.audible.com/pd/B07L9JQBSQ... With Iran suffering under the effects of mainly American sanctions, it gives an idea of what a country in turmoil might do. No government likes the thought of being kicked out of power due to a public uprising.
Another audiobook based on an earlier book For the Greater Good is now being made. The main character in this book appears in Desperation Rules the Day, and isalso in the sequel, Never Pull the Tigers Tail that I am presently completing.
In early 2019, my novel, A Dangerous Love Affair is due to be made into an audiobook. Based on comments I received re the published version, I have since revised and had the book re-edited. I think readers who like romance mixed with erotic lovemaking will enjoy reading, and listening to it once it has been completed
Apart from my audiobooks, I have completed another romance/erotic short story that I expect to be published next year. I am presently awaiting to receive approval and a contract from a publisher. Watch this space for further news.

Great News

After sending off my new romantic story mixed with erotica to several publishers, I received some great news. One thinks my manuscript is well written and formatted. Given this, they have said they will publish it early in the New Year. I have had a publisher say before that they liked two of my books, but expected me to pay towards publishing them. This company is not asking for any money from me. Therefore I am delighted at this news and look forward to receiving a contract from them.

What is life

What is life but a fleeting moment in passing time.
We are born one day in the knowledge we will die.
But it’s what we do in between the two that counts.
For some, only getting wealthy is their single aim.
While others just want to find a right partner in life.
Some want nothing for themselves, only for others.
Many love animals far more than they do children.
We are all different in our ideas and goals to pursue.
In this life, there are incredibly good people and bad.
One should always try and achieve what you desire.
But don’t feel bad or sad when if it never happens.
There are people in life who never seem to win.
While others are never seen to do anything wrong.
Life is a chance or a gamble you could possibly say.
It is something no matter what cannot be changed.
Never feel jealous of others having more than you.
It won’t change things and can make things worse.
Shrug your shoulders, they might have problems too.
Despite what you think money cannot buy you, love.
It can but only give one the impression of doing so.
Love is something you will either have or never find.

Seasons Greetings

Christmas is here with another new Year approaching
How time does fly when one has such a wife as mine
I bless the day we met, and it’s one I will never forget
Since that time together we have always been together
With our happy at the life that we now share each day
You will always find us wearing a smile whenever out
Our love for each other being oh so plain for all to see
I just hope that seeing us so happy helps others in need
For if one has a partner who’s as good as my darling wife
You can put up with things that are not always so good
With these words, I wish you all a very Happy Christmas
May the New Year bring you good Health and Happiness

My novel

After months of writing followed by more months of checking and revising, I sent my book, A Dangerous Love Affair off to be edited. At the same time, I had a book cover made up. which from the many comments received, looks quite good. (let me know what you think of it.)
I am now in the process of sending the book to publishers to see if they think it suitable for publication. If unsuccessful, then I will self-publish. Either way, it will be up to the readers to decide if the book is as good as I think it is. With a mixture of love, romance, erotica, danger and dramatic events, I think it should prove successful. I must point out that this is not like many other books containing erotica, as mine has a real story with it.
To get a free copy of the first chapter of A Dangerous Love Affair go to my website http://www.colinguestauthor.com and join my mailing list. Also, see my blog at http://www.turkmed.wordpress.com
