Amazing News

Oh happy days.  I woke up this morning to the news that my attempt at world domination has taken yet another twist.  My short story is now on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.es and Amazon.it.   The only Amazon I am not in is the rainforest in South America.

The Story of Albert Ross, fingers crossed, will appear on a number of other sites in the coming weeks.  Keep your eyes and ears open as I have tried to distribute it as widely as possible.  Therefore it is all merely a matter of time.  As my Grandfather used to say ‘Rome wasn’t built in a day’.  But then he had a habit of stating the bloody obvious.

 

 

 

Smashing News

Are you ready?

Are you sitting comfortably in front of your tv?

Yes?

Well, stop.

I have some news.  I have published a short story on Smashwords.com, and it is available for a whopping $0.99.  Not even a dollar.  For the Britishers amongst you, that amounts to an extortionate 75p.  The catch is that it is an eBook, so you need some kind of electronic device to read it on.  The good news is that it is available in a wide variety of formats, so you can read it on Kindle, Kobo, Nook, Sony Reader, Stanza, Aldiko, Adobe Digital editions,  iPads and iPhones, Smart and Clever phones, Blackberries and Blueberries as well as some relic of the past known as a computer.

And here is the cover

In the coming weeks ‘The Story of Albert Ross’ will be released on more platforms.  Keep checking back for more information.

An Anniversary Of Sorts

A few days ago I unwittingly celebrated my first anniversary as a blogger.  It seems somewhat unbelievable that so much time has gone by and that so much nonsense has passed from my brain to my fingertips and reached your eyes.  However, it has, and that is reason alone to celebrate.

A year ago I had no clear idea why I was drawn to starting this site.  I suppose mainly it was to give myself an outlet as I drowned myself in editing my first novel.  In the year which followed I wrote another book (and actually finished editing it), amassed 95 posts on a variety of topics, gained a surprising number of followers and in turn learnt a great deal about myself.  And for that I would like to thank all of you which have been stopping by over the past year.

To celebrate my anniversary I decided to revamp the site.  Now it has a shiny clean look, and hopefully a more user-friendly feel to it.  I hope you like it.  I do.
