How to read my books
I
am
fortunate
that
I
am
not
writing
to
make
a
living.
Earning
money
is
nice
but
for
me
it's
much
more
important
that
my
readers
are
entertained,
thrilled,
amused
and
engaged
by
my
stories.
Let
me know if you are.
All
my
novels
are
published
by
Amazon
Kindle,
a
firm
that
has
revolutionised
the
literary
market.
No
longer
are
authors
dependent
on
the
whims
or
bias
of
agents
and
publishers
who
must
be
persuaded
that
a
work
has
the
potential
to
earn
them
as
well
as
the
author
a
living.
Nor
must
authors
invest
in
vanity
publishing
and
hope
that
the
ever-dwindling
number
of
booksellers
will
put
their books on their shelves.
As
much
more
famous
writers
than
me
have
said,
authors
write
to
bring
pleasure
and
enjoyment
to
their
readers.
Print
versions
of
my
books
are
always
less
than
£10
or
the
equivalent
in
other
currencies
and
once
the
launch
is
over,
that
price
reduces
even
further.
Electronic
versions
of
my
work for Kindle or other e-readers are always less than £1 or free on subscription.
Amazon
Kindle
enables
a
book
to
stand
or
fall
on
its
own
merits.
One
very
successful
author
known
to
me
personally
wrote
twelve
books
before
one
was
accepted
by
a
publisher.
She
is
now
one
of
the
most
successful
writers
in
the
UK
but
one
is
bound
to
wonder
how
much
of
a
lottery
she
had to engage in by following the 'traditional' publishing route.
All
my
books
are
available
as
paperbacks
and
are
also
available
for
download
to
Kindle
and
other
electronic readers as well as on computers using the free Kindle app.
Like
all
writers
I’m
always
pleased
to
hear
from
readers
with
comments
or
questions.
Of
course
it’s
pleasing
to
hear
that
people
enjoyed
a
story
but
it’s
even
more
helpful
if
they
critique
my
work,
notice
any
typos
I’ve
missed
or
facts
I’ve
got
wrong.
