Interesting to see that the annual earnings from Amazon of new authors are higher for those publishing independently  compared to those who have been taken up by the Big 5 publishing houses.  If you are an established author, the Big 5 are great. However, if you are new, it seems you sell more and earn…

For my friends and readers in USA and UK, TWIN is part of an Amazon Countdown deal for the next 7 days. Sadly not available in Oz.

CHAOS, Book 3 in the Path to Chaos series has now been released on Amazon. Find it here. This is the last in a series which has taken me 10 years to write! Hope you enjoy it. This series, and particularly this last book, examines what it means to be evil. We all have it…

Errors have been fixed and I’ve asked Amazon to email any who have purchased the book to inform them that an Update is available to download. Again, apologies for the errors. Lesson learnt for the 3rd book which I will delay until I’m completely happy with the editing. Sometimes Amazon will not email and if that’s the…

I’m pleased to say the the second book in my PATH TO CHAOS series has been released much faster than expected. I got a great review from the professional reviewer from Lynk manuscript and only had a few bits and pieces to adjust, which I’ve done so we are ready to go! THE THREAD FRAYS takes…

One eagle-eyed reader has picked up an error in my prologue. I named both twins as babies – Jack and Tul – then proceeded to have Tul stolen back to the monastery. No one there should have known his name. But they did! A basic error and easily fixed but its a lesson about the importance…

I’ve dropped the price of TWIN to US$2.99 which is more realistic for a new author. I was reluctant to make the book too cheap since, in mind, it looks … well, cheap! It’s amazing how price sensitive the market is. The ranking for TWIN in the Fantasy category on Amazon has risen from 9400 to…

I’ve just joined the Goodreads fantasy book club to try and be more a part of the ‘community’ of writers and readers of fantasy fiction.
