Blog postWe’re getting closer to the re-release of A New Threat. That’s right, it’ll be available to purchase again soon!
Today I’m revealing the shiny new cover.
But first, some background information.
I first started working on A New Threat back around 2007. It was the first real novel I’d tried to write, and I learned a lot in the process… and it took forever to write…

Blog postSo, after a while of not doing much (day job, blah, blah) I’ve decided to release one of my WIPs (Work In Progress) as a web serial. I’ve also release new version of the website to make that process easier.
