With the Christmas and New Year festivities now well and truly in the past, it’s time for me to do some serious work! Determined that 2024 will be a great year to create the opportunities for my Lexicon Series to reach even more readers, no matter their age, I need to ‘knuckle down’. So with submissions and posts at the forefront of my efforts,there can be no let-up. Let’s make sure that 2024 is a good year for reading, whether…..

One boy. Three nail-biting quests. An ancient artefact. Plus an irreplaceable treasure. With the first three books, The Librarius Quest, The Curse of The Bletherwytch and also The Witch’s Blood all bursting with intrigue, excitement, mystery, suspense and a sprinkling of fantasy, they can’t fail to please. So don’t delay. In the lead up to Christmas, now is the perfect time to get to know Alfie Tucker. And talking of Christmas, The Witch’s Blood begins and ends on Christmas Day……

No matter your age, my Lexicon Series – The Librarius Quest, The Curse of The Bletherwytch and also The Witch’s Blood – is bound to fit the bill! So don’t miss out! Get your copies now. And, oh, happy reading folks!
There’s lots going on behind the scenes today, including some re-editing on the, as yet, unpublished manuscript of the fourth and final part of my Lexicon Series. So lots of reading out loud – something I really love to do. It’s a great way to identify anything within a sentence or phrase that doesn’t work/sound right or ‘flow’! Don’t forget, all the books are available on Amazon, where I also have an Author Page. Happy reading!
Ever wondered how or where the idea for a book, or even a series, might have originated? Sometimes it can have come from the smallest spark of an idea, a memory or perhaps something you’ve witnessed or experienced. For me, the Lexicon Series story-line began a few years ago with a 1,500 word assignment I was tasked with as part of a Creative Writing Course. Yes, that’s right. Just 1,500 words! My! How those few words have mushroomed; now a…..
To the young readers I met at a lovely summer gathering yesterday, it was great to be able to have a chat with you, albeit a brief one, I do hope you enjoy the books. Leave a comment or question here and I promise to get back to you. Happy reading!
With the weather reluctant to ‘play ball’ here in the UK, perhaps becoming immersed in a gripping adventure that a book can provide would be a good way to fill the hours until the sunshine deigns to show its face again. Still not sure? Then ‘dip your toe in the water’ as they say by giving The Librarius Quest a try first, then if you enjoyed that, follow on with The Curse of The Blethewytch, a book guaranteed to draw…..
Following a roller-coaster couple of months, during which the website was down, things are slowly getting back to normal, well in some areas at least, while others remain somewhat chaotic. But no matter; that’s the way life goes I guess! On the book front, I have decided that more needs to be done on Book 4 and that re-reads, editing etc can only improve what’s there. I often recall the words I heard uttered by one very successful author that…..
Prologue The young man could often be spotted sitting on a park bench; a lone figure, deep in thought. He was reflecting upon a particular day in his past; a special memory, its true significance a secret to all but himself. Back then, and just a normal 12-year-old who happened to love books, it never occurred to him that that single event would change his life forever………… Start the adventure by having a read of The Librarius Quest. Enjoy!
