Where are my books?

Okay. What's going on? Friends are telling me they are now receiving their copies of my latest book, 'Crazy Man Cade'. And I haven't got my advance copies from the publisher yet!! Annoyed or what!
And I can't speak to the girl at the publisher's until Wednesday! Typical eh?

I'm now working on trying to answer the ten questions for the 'Next Big Thing' which I will be posting on here on Wednesday (I hope). It's a way for writers to spread the word about their latest works in progress, and also to spread info about their writer friends.  Please look out for my blog then, on Wednesday 17/10/12.

Thanks folks!

linking to other people's blogs

Well folks, I've been ordered to put a link on here to my mate's blog, She's a real bossy boots you know! So I'm going to try but I'm a bit useless at this job.
To read all about her works in progess, and other  info about this lovely lady  please visit her at -madalynmorgan.blogspot.co.uk

New book out soon.

Am just hearing from folk that they have started to pre order my latest book, 'Crazy Man Cade' from Amazon!  (published through Robert Hale, as a Black horse Western). My first one 'The Ghosts of Poynter' sold out in less than three months! Let's hope this one does as well!
Thank you to those who purchased the first, and those who do decide to purchase the second.

News from the tipi.

Hello All. I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of my parcel of advance copies of my second Western 'Crazy Man Cade', on pre-order at Amazon as we speak!

In other news - My 85 year old Mum was flooded this week, lost carpets, some furniture, knick knacks etc, I felt so helpless, as I couldn't get down there to help her, she lives at the bottom of a hill, in a 300 year old cottage, and all the rain from the hill runs down past the front of her house, usually. only this time, it got in. Without knocking!!

My little dog, Poppy, had a fit last week. Horrible! We think she might have epilepsy. Need to ask vet. It's a horrible thing to witness.

I hope anyone reading this is fit and well. See you soon. :)

Anybody there?

So, does anyone ever read blogs? I keep on writing things and hoping for readers, but they don't seem to come! I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth keeping on with a blog after all?
Maybe I'll see you around eh>

Research. Is it useless?

Hello out there! Hope you are all well? I was having a discussion with some other writers today about the differences between writing fiction and non-fiction.

Some of us have spent a heck of a long time (in my case, 3 years) in working on local history books, digging up obscure facts from hidden places, only to find no publisher is interested as the book will not be 'commercially viable' as the area the book is about, is too small for them to cover.

So now, what do we do with all that research? Leave it in the attic? Burn it? If we use it on our blogs, will other people use it in their books, which may even be published? It's a dilemma. Ho Hum. Think I'll stick to fiction, it doesn't take as long!

Howdy Guys and Girls.
I'm back! And waiting eagerly for my parcel of advance copies of my second Western. Busy writing the next one, as well as polishing off my first Contemporary Romance, which I'm seriously considering putting straight onto Kindle, although I might just try one or two publishers first, after a conversation with a writing friend today. I have two more of the Romances, at various stages of progress, so keep watching this space!
I hope you are all well, and coping with this awful weather!

New Cowboy in town.

Jed Cade is coming to town. Prepare to have your hearts broken ladies! He's rough, tough, lean and mean. But he's got a soft centre.

'Crazy Man Cade' is on pre order at Amazon now. Don't miss him, he's waiting just for you. Honest!

I'm Back!! (I hope).

Hello all. I've been gone for a while, because I thought I'd lost my blog! So I set up another one, only to lose that too. Then I heard a friend say she'd experienced the same thing so I felt better about it.
Guess what? I came on line today on the offchance that I might find my old blog, and here it is! So maybe I'll be blogging a little more regularly again now.
However, now I know I'm back, I've got to go. It's tea time, and the food won't cook itself. I hope to see you all later with news about my latest books, about my friends books, about magazines, about animals, about ------ oh, you get it!!

See you all soon!!
