Just published a permanently FREE novelette on Amazon Kindle StoreTHE SYNOPSIS:
In July 1993, Detective-Inspector Ikenna Kodilinye of Lagos Police Command is ordered by his superior to travel to the faraway city of Enugu to assist the local police over there with their investigations. He is reluctant to go to Enugu because of the trauma that he suffered there as child during the Nigerian Civil War (1967-1970).
This short story chronicles the frustrations endured by Ikenna while stuck in the notorious Lagos city traffic en route to the airport from where he is scheduled to fly to Enugu.
Between an annoyingly talkative taxi driver, the chaotic gridlock outside and the emotional turmoil brought on by the reawakening of repressed childhood memories, the frustrated Lagos city detective struggles inside his taxicab to keep himself cool under the sweltering citywide heatwave. Then he relieves his childhood trauma from decades past, and comes to the realization that his superior's order to travel to Enugu was serendipitous— a chance to finally experience catharsis.

Happy to share the New Book Release: Metaphysics of Sound: in Search of the Name of God, subtitled “a Brief history of the World beyond the Usual" https://www.amazon.com/dp/9995754460 #freebooks on #Amazonkindle this weekend! Nataša Pantović Metaphysics of Sound
“Following Alexander the Great in his conquest, and challenging two most ancient European historical assumptions: Firstly, Is the Ancient Europe’s progressive scientific drive the result of the Roman’s or Greek’s ancient cultural heritage?, and the Second: Why is the question - are the Macedonians, Greeks or Slavs, so troublesome, in the minds of both commoners and historians?
We find the relevance of these answers today, for its arguments fundamentally shape the structure of the East vs. West, Liberals vs. Conservatives debate.” Ancient History explored! Enjoy! and let me know what you think. Do leave a review! <3

Free 30th April - 4th MayTime slip, historical fiction, YA.
1197/2012
For the last five years, Marion has kept the promise she made to a medieval knight, one Giles de Soutenay, to deliver two Epipens every year at Whitsuntide via the mystical beech tree which once catapulted her back in time. As long as Giles is able to provide these devices for Prince John, he will be able to keep his lands...and his life.
But this year, Marion is in hospital. Desperate to keep her word, she entrusts the devices to Shannon, her daughter. Shannon only has to place the Epipens in a hollow in the roots of the old tree. However, she has recently been betrayed by the man she trusted. Still hurting and embarrassed by the pity she sees in the eyes of her friends, she just wants to get as far away as possible. And she can't get much further away than the twelfth century.
Hildegarde, Abbess of Sparnstow, is expecting a visit from Giles. She is not expecting a young woman from 2012. As Shannon stumbles her way through the social niceties of the twelfth century, she will discover that some things never change.
Although this is book 2 in the Out of Time series, it can be read as a standalone novel. It was published as second in the series, but chronologically, it comes after book 3, Blossom on the Thorn.

Brothers Sen Gogh -- Manik Bal
He wanted to stay true to his art.
It would cost him his sanity and his life.
She wanted a life of dignity.
It was a recipe for poverty and strife.
Soubhik and Sourav, inspired by real heroes Vincent and Theo, try and make it in the cut throat indie music industry of Mumbai with the power of their brotherly love, and the love for their kind of music. The story honestly but delicately documents their romances, their passion, their love for the craft, yet the desire to give a sane life to their loved ones.
Will they live their dream? Can they stay true to their principles?
This is what immortality may mean, not a chain of infinite moments, but a moment that is immortalized in time for its permanence.

LAST CHANCEMy ebook Stop Stuffing Your Face; How you can Control Emotional Eating and Overcome Food Addiction is free on Amazon until midnight US Pacific time.
ood is considered a necessity which we require to live. When does it become our nemesis? Sure, the necessity is there, but there are so many tempting foods out there that we know aren't good for us, but we can't resist the urge to indulge. Sure, you eat because you're hungry, but might you also be eating when you're stressed out? Had an exceptionally bad day at work? Or just bored? Do you know how to enjoy your food, not only for the sake of making you feel better? Those treats you like to indulge in aren't bad, they just need to be eaten in moderation.
If you are emotionally eating to fill a void in your life, why do you turn to food? Do you realize you are even doing it? It can effect men as well as women. This book is going to explain what exactly emotional eating is, why you do it and how you can control it. For the sake of your health, don't let food control you anymore - take back your control.
Free to download for two more days. Available from all Amazon outlets 😊 These novellas have been published before but have gone out of print and now they are back.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V4JNQC5?...
My ebook is free again now until FridayStop Stuffing Your Face; How you can Control Emotional Eating and Overcome Food Addiction
After years of being an emotional eater, I decided to write a book about it.
I was always tucking into a packet of cookies, thinking I'd earnt it after having a bad day, and before I knew it I had taken the last one.
It's a hard topic for men to talk about with their friends. Men don't seem to worry about their weight in the same way that women do, but men's health can suffer just the same.
I've had a lot of jobs that involve driving and after hours of enduring the monotony of a road journey, the temptation to pull into a 'drive-thru' is too great to resist. Drive thrus are so abundant on the highway, by the time you've passed a 3rd or 4th one, temptation's got you. Always seems like a good idea at the time. Not to mention the countless snacks available at gas stations and how they're promoted.
I've been to countless parties where the host says "Someone have the rest of that cake, I don't want to throw it away."
Sweet and salty treats are fine in moderation, but how do we control our cravings.

Because I am going to Italy soon -- the land where my favourite writer came from -- I am going to make my book of tribute stories to him free to download for five days starting right now. This book was published back in 2015.I have written several Calvinoesque tales since, but I still think this is a good representation of the kind of fiction I most enjoy writing. It features one of my rare collaborations (with Des Lewis). In thirty years I have only ever done six collaborations with other writers. Anyway the book is free on all Amazon outlets.
