My approach to writing

It was pointed out during a recent interview that as a new author that one is entirely dependent on a prospective reader taking that first step and giving a book a chance to impress and entertain.

I agree and am very grateful for the very many people who I don't know that have taken that leap of faith.

For those of you that want to know about my approach to writing:

* I write to entertain, I want you to enjoy reading one of the books, tell all your friends and come back for another one in The Max Thatcher Book Series

* They all have a lead character/hero; Max. I like stories with goodies and baddies, damsels in distress and lots of twists and turns. So that's what I pack into every adventure.

* My books all contain a story line based around current day world affairs. Gatekeeper explores how vulnerable our personal data has become. The Platinum Solution is about whether South Africa without Mandela there to control the various factions present goes the same way as the Balkans did after Tito's passing

* My philosophy in life is in the name of the several successful businesses that I have built over the years GOWI - GET ON WITH IT! My writing reflects this approach, I do not enjoy reading flowery prose designed to take a book up to 400+ pages. So I write in a very punchy style with lots of action throughout

* The books are unlikely to win a literary prize any time soon but would, in the opinion of many, make excellent films. They are hard to put down, so not a Dickens or Tolstoy (which I have read and enjoyed) but are great entertainment to read on the plane, beach or for the daily commute

* My books contain moderate amounts of violence and adult themes. They're not for children, they're for adults who enjoy action and adventure with a bit of bite

I trust the above helps to convince you to take a chance. Please click on the link and buy one so that you, as I would hope, become another happy reader of The Max Thatcher Book Series
