I have just persuaded my publisher to reduce the price of my book, THE BOY FROM BERLIN. This is the only title of mine on Amazon to which I do not have the rights. The price is $4,99 (£3.30). It has been released as a paperback in America by Harlequin Books, so I have great hopes for it. The link is http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009R6A26U/?tag Read more…….
THE EAGLE’S COVENANT is now available in paperback in Europe only. I ordered a copy for my son, Terry because he designed the book jacket. I always send him the books he’s designed so he can scrutinise the results. I have also ordered some copies for myself and will no doubt buy more at some future date. I can’t release this book in America because Harlequin Books have the English language rights over there, and will be releasing the book in November this year. This means that all my books, eight in all, are now available on-line and in paperback. Now I have to concentrate on promotion and marketing for a while. Anyone know a shortcut to success? Let me know if you do. Read more…….
Some people have good and bad days. Me? I have good and maybe not so good days. My week began on a good note because ENT posted my bargain book deal (ROSELLI’S GOLD), which resulted in 141 sales. There is usually a follow on effect from this, and my other title which was a bargain deal (THE DEVIL’S TRINITY) is still selling; something it was failing to do before the daily deal was posted on ENT.

ROSELLI’S GOLD a bargain book deal today on ENT. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0069TYFK2/?tag
Late today; should have posted this yesterday. Had some good news over the weekend: my bargain deal, THE DEVIL’S TRINITY, was picked up by ENT, and the result was 122 sales that day. Compare that to an average of one sale every two weeks and that’s a huge result. It lifted the book from about 350,000 in the rankings to 1200. It also reached #34 in the Action & Adventure category.

My latest Kindle title, THE EAGLE’S COVENANT is now available on Amazon (both sites) at $2,99. Check it out at htttp://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CJZE6Y0/?tag
I have been promoting one of my titles, THE DEVIL’S TRINITY since dropping the price two weeks ago to $0,99, but very little happened. Then yesterday ENT picked it up and posted it as a bargain, daily deal and bingo! sales started climbing. I was looking at a sale of about one or two as a result of the price drop, but just a small ad (free) for a day on ENT and I have a big smile on my face. It reached #34 in the Action & Adventure category, and at the time of writing it is beginning to fall away. But what the hec: a nice little surprise for yours truly. Why not check it out at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A40ZUWE/?tag ?
Life is full of little surprises, and none of us are immune to them. My last post included a piece about a young, lady writer I joining Acclaimed Books and hoping to publish a collection of quotes that made people happy. I had passed on a recollection of something that had made me happy and included in that was a reference to my church here in Torrevieja. Read more…….
I have a lot of thinking to do about the way in which I will go with respect to my writing. I am currently working on a project which could take all of this year to complete. This isn’t a problem as any writer will know, but I keep getting distracted by wanting to turn my attention to other projects like book promotion and marketing etc. I also have another title waiting to be published on Amazon.

Shocking news yesterday. Pat and I had just come back from church when we received a phone call from our neighbour to tell us that our Vet had murdered his wife. This was the Vet who came to our house four weeks ago to put our dog, Lucy down. Read more…….
