And so, it begins

Power Unbound is now available for sale in all good bookstores near you. Not a bookstore near me, unfortunately – at least, wasn't on the shelves at A&R Queanbeyan when I went in this morning. But I know they're on the shelves elsewhere, cause I've seen pics and two people have contacted me to say that they've got their copies.

Yet again, my sister-in-law was first cab off the rank. Thanks Michele [image error]

The wait is over, and I can kinda relax. Celebrate too – Moet with dinner tonight. Of course now, the question is – will the reaction be good? First review of the book was very positive – thanks to the great folks at Angus and Robertson Edwardstown and particularly Taran. So many people have told me how much they loved Secret Ones that I've been living with a strange type of fear for months now. Namely – what if I stuffed it up?

What if, in the process of writing Power Unbound and Rogue Gadda and doing a better job with both of them, I have destroyed the thing that made people love Secret Ones so much? Whatever that nebulous thing was?

Well, it's time to let it go. I've done the best I can and I think it's a great read. Readers will react to it how they will. Some will love it. Some won't. Some who normally would love it will read it at the wrong time in their life and so not love it.

I can't control any of that. All I can do is write the best book I can. Which is why I put the excitement aside and did my words on the new series for today.

Am now half way through book one of the Lost Ones trilogy. Romance is so far cooking along nicely, but the other aspect of the storyline is doing an iceberg trick on me – from time to time, I see glimpses of the whole and it's tantalising, but the entirety is yet to be revealed.

I love my job.

PS Please buy my book. I'll love you forever if you do. Yes, YOU! You can get it on Kindle here or go to your favourite bookstore.
