Writing news
I am delighted to announce that my new collection of creepy tales, Hall of Hauntings, can be bought from Amazon and is also available to read in Kindle Unlimited!
Do you dare to read these six spooky stories of the supernatural? Feel the chills running down your spine and your pulse pounding with fear as you encounter…
The reality show in a haunted mansion where the ghosts aren’t real… are they?
Murder and mayhem at a bakery… who is the evil man in the corner?
A terrifying ancient mummy, but how is it linked to a beautiful portrait?
The old piano with a horrible history... are you afraid to play upon it?
A mysterious glowing figure with a secret to die for… what is hidden in the attic?
The deathly stillness of a barricaded library, but are the hauntings inside, or outside?
Remember to leave a review and let me know which story scared you the most!
Blog news
In the previous newsletter, I said that December was a record month for blog views. The record was broken by January’s views which were just over 4,000! My post on whether Kindle Unlimited is worth it was very popular, perhaps suggesting that people had received Kindles for Christmas and were deciding if they should sign up for KU. I have now added Hall of Hauntings to my Writing page.

We shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. Still, I couldn’t resist featuring some ugly book covers in one of my early blog posts.

House of Mirrors by Erin Kelly, which will be published in April. I have enjoyed most of her previous books and this one is good so far!

The X-Files, which I am working my way through from Channel 4, still on series 1. I was a bit too young to see it first time around. I enjoy it. The truth is out there!

Turin Brakes. There are 9 albums, so I made myself a mixtape of my favourites. You can still buy blank cassette tapes although only from a few manufacturers.
That’s all for now. Thanks for reading - see you next time!
