Interview

As a part of my ongoing efforts to increase awareness for my writing I have begun to conduct a number of interviews on-line.

So- if you want to know a little more about me then please take a look at the latest interview.

In The Chair 67 by Jan Ruth

Getting Personal.

Good evening all.

As you will have noticed, all of my posts thus far have focussed on my work, whether it be my earlier acting career or, my more recent forays into the world of writing.  I think it is probably well past time that I expand upon that.

If you can detect a note of reluctance here, then congratulations.  You see, I am an intensely private person.  It is against my nature to broadcast my views, feelings and especially aspects of my personal life in this manner.  I find it exposes me in a way that makes me very uncomfortable.  Having said that, I realize that I need to engage more with my prospective audience.

Going forward therefore, I intend to post items of a more personal nature on this blog.  Exactly what, I cannot say at this juncture.  I am, however, open to suggestions.  If there is anything in particular that you, as my reader, wish to know about me, then please, feel free to ask.  I would also welcome any comments you may have an this, or indeed, any of my posts, past, present or future.

I should inform you at this stage that all comments are monitored by myself prior to them being published on this site.  I have no wish to censor anyone or block opposing viewpoints to my own.  The reason for this monitoring is that I have no wish to provide a platform for the various "trolls" and "keyboard warriors" that inhabit this environment.  I will not tolerate, abuse of any kind, and such posts will not see the light of day here.  If you object to my opinions in a reasonable and erudite manner then I will happily present your objection to the public and engage in an open discussion with you on whatever the subject may be.

I sincerely hope that this position meets with everyone's approval, and I look forward to presenting myself to you and engaging with you.

Thanks for reading.

I Need You !!

Hello to everyone,

There have been some interesting developments regarding my second Novel "Fool In The Ring".  As you may be aware, I had planned to release the novel this month and, in truth, it is ready to release now.  However, I am putting back the official release date in order to try something a little different.

I submitted my manuscript to Amazon for their Kindle Scout Campaign programme and, surprise surprise it was accepted.  So, what does that mean?

Well Kindle Scout selects previously unpublished manuscripts and places them in front of the general public (i.e. YOU) for a period of thirty days.  During that time you have the opportunity to nominate manuscripts you believe are worthy of being published.  At the end of that thirty day period Amazon will then offer selected authors a publishing contract for their manuscript.

So, starting today, I launch my Kindle Scout campaign for "Fool In The Ring"  and I need your help.
I am not asking you to make any kind of purchase, all I am looking for is a little time investment on your part.  This is what I need:

1. Visit my Campaign Page  -  Please take a look, as a little reward you will find the first 5000 words of my novel there as a taster (that's almost 4 whole chapters!!)
2. Nominate - If you like what you see there then please nominate my book.  A large part of Amazons' decision will be based upon the number of nominations I can generate over the thirty day period.
3. Share - Share - Share !! - Help me spread the word, please share this post through social media as far and as wide as you possibly can.  You can be sure I will be doing the same.

It goes without saying that I am going to be repeating this message a lot over the next thirty days, so I apologize in advance if I become a little repetitive.

I thank you all in advance for your time and support.
