Granted, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but let’s face it, there are some pretty awful book covers out there and for some peculiar reason, a high proportion of poor art has perpetually appeared on romance books. I’m glad to report this trend is changing and, as with the content, the covers are [...]
I’ve decided to clear out some of my old posts (from my website and myspace) but some posts like memories are worth keeping, so every Monday I’ll take a look back and if I find anything interesting I’ll repost with any additional comments I can think of.
So, this morning I had to ask myself if [...]
Much of the UK is currently covered in a blanket of snow. The strange thing is people seem to be finding it harder to cope this year even in my surrounding streets but the strange thing is we had more snow here last year. I’ve just said on a myspace friend’s page that while I [...]
I had plans. I had a schedule. I have no idea what has happened to these ‘organised’ things. I think I had an attack of ‘life’ as in ‘life had other ideas’ or ‘life got in the way’. It happens to the best of us sometimes.
Thank you to those who have sent messages in the [...]
For some strange reason all through 2009 I kept writing 2008. Maybe I was trying to claw back a year of my life but I don’t think that’s the reason. I think so much has happened to me in the last couple of years I had simply lost track of time. When you’re young the [...]

Please support the authors you love by adhering to copyright regulations. The same laws apply for digital books as digital music etc. And no, purchasing an ebook does not give you the right to share it around. Many readers ask why when they can lend or give a print book. The answer is simple. It is ILLEGAL to COPY a digital file. While many authors would not object to a reader making a back-up copy for their own personal use to prevent loss, you cannot 'give' a digital book to another person without first buying another copy (or in other words more than one license). Most people when they file-share or pass on a digital file keep the original and therefore a copy is made. Do so and I don't care what reasons you care to give, you are breaking the law and hurting the writers, many of whom write on top of a full-time job while trying to have a normal life. Many people believe producing digital copies of an item has no cost but this is simply untrue. For one thing it costs the author in 'hours' and hard work. Please show your support by reading, accepting, and abiding by copyright law. Do not give out files or accept them from file-sharing sites and always report a breach of copyright. Thank you.
