Politics divides us. It turns us into argumentative individuals, refusing to accept compromise. We throw buzzwords into the mix – Leftist, Far-Right, fascist, racist, Far-Left, antisemite, and everything in between.

As an Indie writer, I unfortunately do not possess the backing of a number of proof readers, and so in the past, some of my novels have been littered with typos. However, I have begun the mammoth task of completing a final proof read using Microsoft Word’s “read aloud” function, and this has enabled me to locate and eradicate perhaps 99.9% of all typos.

You can drop me an email … Continue reading Quality Control Update

As a multi-genre writer, and a writer of a couple of different series of books, one might expect there to be certain recurring themes – the Nazis in the Greater German Reich for example – but there are also a number of other, more subtle, recurring themes. Prisons There have been frequent prison scenes within a few of my novels. Muslamic Ray Gun had perhaps half of the novel – at least – devoted to prison life, as the lead character was incarcerated for a number of years. Maggie’s Children featured a few scenes – again, the lead character was … Continue reading The recurring themes in my novels
My novel Maggie’s Children is a book without a blurb. I’ve always been rubbish at writing blurbs, and I’ve known for a long time that this particular novel does not have a blurb which adequately sells it. So what’s Maggie’s … Continue reading Maggie’s Children: A story without a blurb
