Hi everyone, I hope in these scary times that as you are reading this you and your loved ones are doing ok. Today would have been my late mother’s birthday and as she was the one who started me writing back when I was 11 today seems to be a very apt day on which to make this announcement. One of the amazing upsides I have seen since this pandemic began is the amount of stuff my fellow creative people out there are doing to help ease people’s time in  isolation.

“Just because I’m at a comic convention doesn’t mean I won’t buy a prose novel…after all I am a geek.” The above nugget of wisdom was delivered  at my exhibitor table at the Thought Bubble Comic Festival, several years ago. I was there selling Unseen Shadows comics when someone stopped by to ask about the project. I explained how the comics were, for the most part, standalone stories that featured characters from my novel ‘Fallen Heroes’ (yep I just had the one novel back then).
