Congratulations to Emma Mills on Witchblood

My good friend Emma Mills has self-published her first novel today and I am so unbelievably chuffed and excited for her. Please join me in showing your support by shelling out a measly 77p and buying a copy of her paranormal young adult story based in the North West (UK).

I have bought my copy and will be reading shortly - it's so refreshing to have a vampire story based here in the UK and I cannot wait to get stuck in.

You can also follow Emma's blog at www.witchbloodthenovel.com so why not pop by and say hi?

Thanks guys and gals!

ETA: Now available in other ebook formats from Smashwords.

Feeling even luckier!! Can you believe it?

Yes folks, I've done it again!

With huge thanks to Camilla Chafer, author of the fantastic Stella Mayweather series (that I can highly recommend if you like YA paranormal), I am now the proud owner of this new book by Dale Mayer.  Woo hoo!!

You can read more about 'Tuesday's Child (Book 1 of Psychic Visions)' or pick up your own copy right here.

January is definitely shaping up to be a YA paranormal feast!

ETA:  I misread my FB messages and discovered even better news in my inbox from Camilla Chafer!!!

I have also won a copy of No Rest For The Wicca by Toni LoTempio, also available on Smashwords right here

Kicking off the New Year with a... short story

But first, I must wish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!  I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.

I enjoyed a lovely couple of days over Christmas itself at my in-laws and then took off to North Wales for a week with my fabulous little family.  The lack of computer and WiFi got to me in the end but it did enable me to start the following short story; the first few hundred words written long-hand in my trusty notepad.

Please let me know what you think!  (and if you spot any clangers, let me know about that too)

If it's any good, I'd like to submit it to one of the magazines that accepts this sort of story - hence it being exactly 2000 words as per guidelines - to see if its worthy of publishing.  I'll only do that though if I get enough positive feedback.  So here goes...

ETA: Now removed prior to submitting to magazines for potential publishing.
