Delighted to announce that a former writing student of mine is launching his first book in November, called Sinclair's Secret. Details attached.

Mystery and fantasy reading for the weekend!

Collection of titles

Good Sunday to all! What are your plans today?

Protagonists have two goals: external - what do they want? and internal - why do they want it? Goals can force the protagonist to face many secrets, hidden truths, and unresolved issues.

Good Thursday to all. Be creative.
