Wizards Return
It's been a while since Wizards' Kingdom opened up my writing world. This was my very first dip into magic and wizardry. So, I've decided to write another wizarding adventure. This next series won't be in any way linked to my first series.
The idea of writing another mythical and thrilling trilogy has been nagging away at me for years. I've got some really great ideas which once I've finished Death Trap, the book I'm working on at the moment. Then it will be full steam ahead.
I can't give anything away now, but I will put the progress on my blog. I have the titles and character's names, and a bunch of different plots so far.
Keep watching...

Crank Tech One: DESTRUCTION - 'A fast-paced, well-plotted adventure.'
The Wishing Shelf Awards.
I really had to think about this review before writing it. There is so much right with Crank Tech One but there is also a lot that is wrong. But overall my experience reading the book was positive. The best thing to say about Crank Tech Run is that it was a fun read. The book is quirky, the story a bit different, it had some fun twists to the story and overall I read it with a smile on my face. I’ve read a lot of “robot” stories and seen a number of “robot” movies and this story was fairly original and not a rehash of plots I had seen before.
However, the writing is very uneven. There are points where I was impressed with a well written section, and then cringing at the writing in another section. Many times the story progressed forward brilliantly – but at other points it relied on hokey contrivances. If the entire book were written up to the standards of its best segments, it would be a five star sci-fi classic. The poor parts had the effect of pulling me out of the story, which is never good.
I am going with four stars because the plot was original, and there were several shining moments in the book.L Sweet 4 stars October 12 2015
