It’s been a good week aboard the starship, your captain is happy to report. The cover for the first book of the new space fantasy, Star Legend, has arrived. Well, the preliminary cover anyway. I need your help in giving it its final tweaks and polish. Check out Publishing News below to see it.
Your captain also learned the starship can move to her new mooring in a couple of weeks. After nine years of rentals and no garden, we’ll finally have a proper home. Many thanks to everyone who sent in their moving tips. I was overwhelmed with good advice, which I’ll certainly be putting into practice.
Finally, a big hello and thank you to long-time shipmate, Sarah Woods, who is a member of the Review Crew and also now a patron!

The interstellar bridges provide a lifeline for billions.
To save humanity the Darkspace Renegades must tear them all down.
Unjustly kicked out of the Consortium Security Force, Hallam Knight has been reduced to working as a gunner, defending the precious Randenite fuel tankers from notorious extremists, the Darkspace Renegades.
Hell-bent on ending bridge travel for good, the Darkspace Renegades threaten to tear down the interstellar travel network that supports billions of lives, across a dozen worlds.
When a violent encounter with infamous mercenary group, the Blackfire Squadron, almost costs him his life, Hallam Knight finds himself at the mercy of the Darkspace Renegades and their mysterious and enigmatic leader.
Hallam discovers that everything he thought he knew was a lie. Far from being the enemy, the Darkspace Renegades are humanity’s only hope – they just don’t know it yet.

So, this is the preliminary cover for The Valiant, book one of my new space fantasy, Star Legend.
I was thinking that I’d like it to be more ‘moody’ and distressed, and I’m not sure about the colour.
I’d love to know your opinion. Post on our Facebook page or reply to this email.
The Valiant is in its final stages before being sent off for proofreading. Then, next on the agenda is book two, The Fearless.
After that comes the fifth Carrie Hatchett Christmas story. You’ll be able to read all the stories for nothing in your exclusive shipmates’ Christmas collection gift.
These are happy, somewhat silly, uplifting stories, which I think we all need in these difficult times, right?
Enjoy your books, stay sane, safe and happy!
