Right, Here We Go ...!

Right … I’ll Start! I attended a Date with an Agent seminar last week in the hope that my attendance would be enough to ensure the book I have recently completed would be snapped up by the agent I was paired to see. I am a man of high expectations.

That don’t last!

Still I do stand behind the work and I am not about to regret the learning curve I’ve been on in the three or more years it took to conceive, write, re-write, burn, re-start, re-write, burn again and then complete.

The people giving the seminar were pretty au fait with the machinations of the publishing industry and they were at pains to stress that if you want agents and publishers to help you to achieve your goals you have to be prepared to muscle in. Writing the book is apparently only the beginning. So here I am, sleeves rolled up, willing to do all the things that need to be done to make millions for all of us.

My blog is the key.

Rome will burn without it.

So here it is. Entry one. With still no real idea as to how it will work out. I’ll try to make it more interesting for you (and for me) as I go along. And I hereby undertake to update it as often as is possible. Best wishes to you all and if you are interested my new book is a crime novel called The Dualist and I’ll be telling you more about it as time goes by. Meantime here is a selfie of me and it. Perfect couple!

Best wishes
