Autumn Sky
I’ve posted photos of this sky before, and it seems to be turning into a bit of a series. The photos are taken somewhere I visit regularly, and at the same time in the evening, so are a good illustration of the seasons as they change. Now the nights are starting to draw in, theContinue reading “Autumn Sky”

A Marketing Experiment – Follow-up
Last week, I wrote a post about a marketing experiment I was doing, the main objective being to increase my readership and, hopefully, generate some interest in my upcoming new release, No Quarter.

Walking Through Rivendell
About twenty-five years ago, I went on a trip around Europe. I was living in Canada at the time and this was my first big holiday by myself, so it was a Big Deal.

The weather seemed to reflect my mood today. It was all over the place. Rain was spattering my sunglasses, but I needed them against the bright sunlight coming from behind the clouds. As I emerged onto the park at the top of the hill, the sky opened up around me, grey rain and darkness toContinue reading “The Big Sky”
Conor Kelly’s Legends of Ireland, my latest book-baby flies the nest!
A new release from Ali Isaac about the legends of Ireland’s past. Ali is a wonderful writer who captures the mystery and magic of legend so well – this is definitely on my ‘to-read’ list!
The Sticky-Note Mystery
I’ve mentioned before that I usually have a notebook with me in which to jot down ideas, whether for stories, client work or blog posts. I also make copious use of sticky notes – several decorate my computer monitor as I type this, with more on my desk and sticking out from the pages ofContinue reading “The Sticky-Note Mystery”
A Marketing Experiment
Tomorrow I’m going to be running a little experiment in marketing. Oak and Mist, the first book in my Ambeth Chronicles, will be free on Amazon Kindle for five days starting tomorrow. The paperback will still be full price, but the e-book – free. I realise there are differing schools of thought on whether weContinue reading “A Marketing Experiment”
