A writer does write...

 Hello everyone, how is your 2026 going?

 

Thanks to all who bought So… I Met a Witch, always appreciated.

 

I am currently working on two novels: a dystopian adult one which is going through its editing stages, so should be out Winter time (maybe) and a new So… I met book! This one is at its early stages.

 

Other than that, I have started writing on Substack – non- fiction for now. Those wanting to check it out, I will put a link below…

 

Take care all…

So... I Met a Witch

It is just over two weeks until the release of the latest So... I Met book, So... I Met a Witch. I personally feel it is the best one in the series and I hope you do too. Actually, I didn't think I would write a new one, but inspiration struck and maybe deep down I know a new one would come along. Here is the link on how you can pre-order the Kindle version. No link to pre-order the paperback yet though.

Hot News! Book 2 soon!

 ‘Shadow Earth Book 2 – Death’s Bane’ will be released on Kindle and Paperback on Saturday 16th September.

 Check out the link here and the cover below for your dystopian fix. The Kindle will be at a competitive price of $2.99 or about £2.39 and the paperback $9.99/ £8.00.



From the Blurb:

‘Death’s Bane… a walled city where the daemons live, most importantly The General, AKA The Daemon King. An old, cruel daemon who slays all who stands in his way.

 Jodie and Jonas have been taken there and made to assist Professor Hamilton and his granddaughter, Chloe, in their experiments. But here disturbing discoveries are made and their lives are in danger. Can Jonas fix his transcender before it is too late?

 Tom is heading for the walled city with Maigge and a few others, but things don’t go to plan and his life is put in danger when he is separated from the others.

 The daemons have been given a new lease of life and they are stronger. Now they are ready to finish off what they started… to kill all surviving humans…’

Book 1 plug and Book 2 news

 

A big thank you for those have decided to support an independent writer and have bought/ or are about to buy the new book Shadow Earth. It costs less than the price of a coffee on Kindle and is free on Kindle Unlimited. Hey for $10/£10 you can get a coffee (or tea, hey even a beer) and copy on Kindle and read it in a bar/coffee shop. Or feel the texture of a new book by buying the paperback, smell the newness… Check out the book here.

As I have written all three in the trilogy already, the next one is in preparation for maybe an October publishing date.

The title is Death’s Bain and here is a blrub…

*Shadow Earth Cover reveal* *Reviewers get a mention in book 2*

 


Pleased to reveal the cover of Shadow Earth Book One - Earth’s Tear

And I am looking for reviewers!

 

Here is the cover and the book will be out in Kindle and Paperback on 3rd July 2023. 

 




Want to be mentioned in book 2? Looking for reviewers! Please message me and I will email you a PDF version of the book. If your review is up on amazon before or around the release date, then I will mention you in an acknowledgement/thanking page in book 2. But not only that, I will grab one of the reviewer’s names out of a hat and they will also get a copy of Shadow Earth book one in paperback.

 

Shadow Earth Blurb

 A tear… a rip into another world… a Shadow Earth…

Tom would rather have not to have gone to stay at his aunt’s place in Lancashire that Summer with his younger sister Jodie. He would prefer be back home with his friends, partying like all normal seventeen years olds.

 And his wish is granted, but not in the way he expected at all…

 Jodie talks him into helping an old lady who claims there is a monster in her house; inside, he is confronted by a crazed daemon and, trying to fend it off, slips through a door of light.

 He finds himself in some kind of apocalyptic world where everything is in ruins.

 And the daemon has followed him.

 The strange door of light has closed and he cannot get back, but luckily a fearsome teenage girl with a leather jacket and baseball hat and hunting knife helps him fight off and kill the creature.

 She tells him her world is riddled with such monsters and mankind has to live in strongholds to stay safe. She is going back to hers tomorrow, perhaps someone there may be able to help him get back to his world…

 But the daemons are closing in on what is left of mankind, ready to extinguish them from the world forever, and Tom has found himself at the very centre of this war…

New Year!

Belated Happy New Year to all who read, have read or are intending to read my fiction. First off, my little short story collected ‘From Beyond the Vale’ has had a little make over using AI art... check it out here: From Beyond the Grave It's only just under a dollar or 80p in UK, why not get yourself a copy... you know it makes sense. And leave a review if you like...

 Also, the dystopian trilogy I have been banging on about for the last hundred years will see the light of day sometime soon... well, there were will at least be news this year, watch this space.

 When did I become a sci-fi/dystopian fiction writer? I am currently writing another one! About halfway through the first draft... That is another year or so away from completion though…

Updates on So I met and the Trilogy...

My So… I Met series (Ghost, Alien, Demon, Vampire and Werewolf… so far) has had a well needed facelift. The covers have been updated for a while now but the books have also had a bit of a polish: there were a few spelling errors here and there and also the books have been updated. Nothing major, just a freshen up. 

So, if you have yet to meet any of the books go take a look, they are available on both Kindle and in paperback. And if you have already read them, please go to Amazon and give them a rate or a review as this will give my work lovely algorithms….and we all need lovely algorithms!

In other news, my dystopian dark fantasy trilogy will be searching for a home sometime this year.
