Hello everyone!
I have just uploaded a sample of my first Valguard novella, KNIGHT OF COINS onto Tablo and you can read it for free at
https://tablo.io/david-humphrey/valgu... Last year I uploaded a teaser sample onto the now defunct and greatly missed ReadWave website and it seemed to go down well. I have been looking at a number of platforms to publish online - both for samples and free complete stories - so you can expect more soon. I plan on releasing more short stories/novellas/quickreads or as Kindle calls them 'singles' in the future and over the summer I have been writing two more; Queen of Cups is finished and an unnamed standalone story is nearly there but I wanted it finished by September so I can return to the epic novel, Ten of Swords.
The sample posted is Chapter 2: 'Captured' and is far more typical of the rest of the book and my writing style. It is more tense and the hero is trapped, outnumbered, bound, literally on his knees and facing a very immediate death.
Whilst most sites I'm listed on allow you to read the first few pages of the book I have always found it showed text that was atypical of my writing. There is almost no dialogue in it and it is consecutively violent with the protagonist deliberately shadowy.
Here's the link
https://tablo.io/david-humphrey/valgu...It's totally free and you don't need to sign up or anything and if you like this and are looking for your next read - the entire book is only 99¢ 99p .99€ on Amazon
