Blog postThe Truths We Live—the very much long-awaited sequel to 2015’s The Lies We Lead—will hit Amazon Kindle devices on 4th April 2021.
That’s one Month from today.
One Month.
Pre-orders are live right now. And I’ll be releasing details of how reviewers can sign up for an Advanced Reader Copy this weekend.
Are you ready to dive back into Bobby and Emma’s world? (Or should that be dive into Dick & Kitty’s world?)

Blog postI’m happy to say that I met my self-imposed target of completing the first full read-through of The Truths We Live by this weekend with ease. I actually completed the read-through on Thursday evening.
That means that I now have a Word manuscript that’s about as clean as I think I can make it on my own, complete with fake tweets & text messages as needed. The next step is to seek some beta-readers to give me their opinion of it so I can work out if I need to make any changes to the -

Blog postIf you read yesterday’s post, you’ll know that my current goal to do a full read through/edit of the first draft of The Truths We Live. As part of this one thing I’m doing is adding fake tweets and text messages to the manuscript. These will carry through into the eBook and while it will make the eBook file larger to do this, I hope it will add to the experience of reading it.
There’s quite a bit of ‘banter’ between some of the characters on Twitter early on in the book. Here’s one ex -
Blog postI don’t deadlines when it comes to my writing—I get enough of deadlines at work, I don’t need them in an activity that’s supposed to be a hobby.
But I am happy to set goals. Goals aren’t deadlines. Deadlines get you in to trouble if you miss them. Goals… Not so much.
So, my currently set goal is to complete the review of the first draft of The Truths We Live as soon as possible. I by as soon as possible I mean this weekend. Maybe.
We’ll see.
If I can do that, t -
Blog postFacebook is an odd platform, isn’t it? It’s a multi-billion-dollar company whose main income—indeed, I believe its only income—is advertising. And yet, when was the last time you can honestly say that you bought something, be it goods or services, because you saw an ad for it on Facebook?
For me, it was at Christmas. I saw an ad for ‘personalised chocolate gifts’, clicked through to see what they had to offer and eventually, a few days later, bought my children a couple of things each -

Blog postTwo more of my short stories that made their debut at Ruthie’s Club back in the day have also received new covers this month.
Public Performance is a story that may or may not be based on a real-life incident from my university days in Aberystwyth. Meanwhile, Private Party is very much a fully-fictional effort.
Both are available to buy on Amazon or can be read with a Kindle Unlimited Subscription.
Here are the new covers

Blog postThe Ladz Local Lovelies series of four short stories are dear to my heart for the simple reason that they represent the first stories I ever had published when they were picked up by Ruthie’s Club.
Ruthie’s is no longer with us, but the Ladz series lives on as eBooks on Amazon, at just 99c each or as part of Kindle Unlimited.
As part of my continuing project to keep by Amazon offering fresh, these four stories have all received new covers this month.
And here they are… -

Blog postThe designing book “Teasers”—small graphics for sharing on social media that contain a short little snippet of the book’s text—is a fun distraction from all manner of life’s travails. And whenever I’m trying to get back into the ‘role’ of being Marc Nobbs, it’s one of the things that I turn to as an aide.
So it should come as no surprise that I’ve recently designed some new book teasers for Kissed by a Rose. The book was re-released back in October, but I completely ignored the releas -
Blog postMy last post here on the blog was back in September when I announced the re-release date for Kissed by a Rose. Then after a good six months of being able to find the time to work at being Marc Nobbs, things changed. It’s been a hectic few months for me since October. Not as a writer, but as a living breathing person with a job and a family life.
After the UK’s first ‘lockdown’ came to an end in the summer (not that it was much of a lockdown, in truth) both the schools went back, and t -
