Amazon kdp Select & advertising – is it worth it?
Yes! Well in my experience anyway, and I've been an indie author for three years now.

Review – Antiques and Alibis, by Wendy H. Jones
I have to begin by saying I think the book cover is great! If you want a picture to draw you into a story, this one certainly does. Its atmospheric black and white picture of a moonlit street simply shouts mystery and intrigue, a very good start for a detective novel! As the blurb tells… Continue reading Review – Antiques and Alibis, by Wendy H. Jones
Should we go to writers conferences?
Until this weekend I wasn't sure about writers conferences, plus I have discovered I am a terribly indecisive procrastinator!

Before today if you had asked me about a conference I would have answered you with umm's,… Continue reading Should we go to writers conferences?

The Innkeeper’s Son ~ K C Herbel
As a Christian, I love it when I find a book full of morals. One of my all-time favorites is the Narnia series by C S Lewis. Clive Staples Lewis (1898–1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably one of the most influential writers of his day. I love that Clive went… Continue reading The Innkeeper’s Son ~ K C Herbel
Ruin’s Lot by ID Johnson
Over time, many authors have painted a different image of angels and demons. I loved the film Michael with John Travolta drinking, smoking and smelling of cookies... ingenious. Also, really enjoyed Constantine with Keanu Reeves, which was intriguing and spellbinding. And City of Angels with Nicolas Cage, which was lovely and moving. These are just to name… Continue reading Ruin’s Lot by ID Johnson
