What I Absolutely Can't Live Without

I've just gotten a copy of Lahiri's more recent short story collection Unaccustomed Earth. I'm really looking forward to reading it. I've also joined a book club at work.

We're planning to discuss the first three stories in the collection at the end of this month.

In the meantime, my writing has slowed down considerably. I'm frustrated by… Continue

Marketing BookBuzzr - A Book Marketing Technology/Site

A few weeks ago, we had an email interaction with Henry at SelfPublishingReview.com, who made a very valuable suggestion for improving the user interface and readability of BookBuzzr on Mac systems.

Complete beginner in need of help

Having finished my sci-fi action adventure novel, and found a publisher to print it. I now feel all the easy work has been done. It seems that now I need to market this book myself and I have bought marketing equipment and book signing materials at a cost that was higher than expected. Now I have all the equipment and the book, all I need now is to get it out there, so to speak. any ideas that you might think of or used to help would be so greatfully received.

Evening Reflections

A suggestion of continuity.

‘Don’t let the way he looks bother you too much,’ the hushed tones of the nurse interrupted his train of thought, ‘ there’s no cause for worry. It’s just that the stroke froze the muscles on the left side of his face so he looks a little strange, but he’s not suffering, not in any pain.’

‘Well, that’s a relief George, I must say that’s a relief. Did you hear what the nice lady said? She said he’s not in any pain, dear.’ Even… Continue

My Poetry book on sale now !!! BECOMING IVAN TARVER

One of my reviews:

The landscapes Ivan Tarver speaks of can be desolate and unforgiving-cold and monochromatic. Here we are introduced to the heart of a man who possesses the poet's essential quality: finding a heartbeat when there seemingly is none. So even those withered and muted lives he depicts get an earnest and sensitive rendering-Tarver's own kind of blue. Indeed, "through all those weeds, beauty appears and makes everything around it, appear the same."

ISBN:… Continue
