Once again, the writing machine has been churning out its wares and two websites are now showcasing both of my in production novels and a number of short fictions.
The first of these sites is the HarperCollins vehicle, Authonomy. The website is a showcase for many authors to display their wares, and being able to bring a sizeable chunk of my novels to readers free of charge is the biggest plus I can give the site. The two novels are Don’t Hang Up, a tense thriller in the vein of James Patterson, and Grim Reaping, the comedy of Death in which we discover why it is not healthy to attempt to kill the immortal collector of souls. To read the opening quarter of both novels, visit the site at www.authonomy.com.
The same two novels can also be found on the writing community site of Tome City. Tome is a site featuring general fiction and also a number of interactive fiction stories by some very talented authors. As well as the two novels, I have also posted a number of my shirt fiction stories on the site. Any support or new members to the *FREE* site are appreciated by those who run it, and if you enjoy a good read or maybe want to show off your own imagination then please do. Check out the site at www.tomecity.com for more information.
Finally for this blog, I have previews of the first cover ideas for both books. The cover of Don’t Hang Up takes its insipration from Hitchock’s Psycho with glaring red and white constrasts dominating its cover, while Grim Reaping is both a minimalist sketch of the quintessential figure of Death against a striking black backgound. The contrast of black and white as well as the pencil sketches will be a main feature of the Grim Reaper series covers.
So there you have it for this time. More news as and when it happens and don’t forget you can now keep up with events at the following places:-
