New year, new books!
Last week I told you about my new account at Booksprout, where I’ll be offering free books for reviewing. Many thanks if you downloaded a copy of Carrie Hatchett, Space Adventurer. If you missed out, don’t worry. I’ll be putting up another free ARC copy in a couple of weeks.
What you can expect in 2019
Your captain is also planning on making some publishing changes. This year you and the rest of the shipmates will be first in line for my new series before they’re available at Amazon or anywhere else. As soon as Star Mage Saga book 3, Wildfire and Steel, comes out, I’ll begin work on a spinoff series from Space Colony One. Watch this space for updates!
Competition winners and new space colonisation release!
My second piece of good news is that space colonisation series Building New Canaan book 3, Troy, went live last week. If you live in the US or the UK you can pick up a copy for 99 cents, and book 1, Carthage, is currently 99 cents everywhere.
