New Novels

With all the upheaval of moving house for the first time in almost forty years, my writing has slowed down a little this year. Added to this is my seeming lack of motivation to update this blog or my personal one.

These are all things that can be fixed, however and I'm now writing steadily again and working on new things all the time. Indeed, my global total for all my work is fast approaching a million words.

Today, however, I have to belated announcements of new novels. Both have been added to the appropriate page, with links to either Amazon and/or Tapas as appropriate. You always have the choice. Buy it for Kindle or in paperback or hardback if you want a real book. Get it for free on Tapas if you're prepared to have an episode every week.

Latest Novel - Flame of the West

 

It's time for another Novel publishing announcement. Flame of the west is a heroic action/fantasy novel full of fighting, magic and sex. My novels are generally getting longer and more narrative, this one being around 100K words. I'm actually quite proud of this one, even if I still struggle to get enough drama into the story.

As always, it is available from Amazon in hardback, paperback and Kindle editions. I've also started this one as a bi-weekly serial on TAPAS.IO.

New Novels Publishing Now

 

There can be big gaps between books being published, but sometimes, the way I work brings two at once.

So, The Lion Sleeps and Another World are now becoming available on Amazon, Kindle versions first, followed by the other versions in the next few days. The Lion Sleeps will also appear on Lulu from Wednesday August 7th.

See the Novels page for details and links.

Tapas - Episodic Publishing

I've been reading stuff on tapas.io for more than a year now, initially because that's the main place to see the latest episode of Heartstopper. Once there, I found plenty of other stuff to read my way through and I'm now hooked on "Through My Eyes" and "Soft Touch" among many others both novels and comics.

I'm not entirely sure that my work will work well in an episodic form that goes with such a sight, but I'm giving it a go and the first chapter of "Out of My Shell" is going online in the next couple of days.

I'm taking a slightly different route than the one normally used on the Tapas site. I'm going to publish a chapter every week, but they are all going to be free to read, always. Anybody who wants to read ahead or support me can simply go to Amazon and get the Kindle or printed versions that will be available right from the start. To that end, there's a new link in the menu above, that will always have my up-to-date list of published novels on Amazon.

Let's see how this hybrid model of publishing and promotion works out.
