Review copy

I am looking for some lovely people to read the book and write an honest review. If you love urban fantasy and would like to see a copy send me your contact details. Please note that if I get lots of requests it will be first come first served. Thank you.

And finally....

I am pleased to announce a new arrival.

The book will see the light of day through a variety of distributors, starting with Kindle for the e book version and lulu.com for the print on demand version. The ISBN 978-1-326-88423-9. Both should be available just after Christmas.

If people are willing to give a review then I will arrange a free copy for you to read.

The rear page of the book reads -

So one day you inherit a bookshop. It turns out to be a magical gateway to other realms where goblins and elves are real, where magic is possible and there is an evil witch who wants to destroy the world. Oh and as owner of the gateway it’s your job to stop her. Perhaps not your best Monday ever! But you are not alone, a tubby school friend ,a hobgoblin magic coach, assorted elves and an ADHD pixie should all make your life easier;when you finally work out how to cast some spells. Book of Spells is an urban fantasy novel for all of those people who wish they could step out of their boring reality into something more magical,but with added guns and pizza!

Getting published update - a sorry tale.

The book, all 96 000 words was finished early in 2015. It spent alot of time being edited and tweaked to get it to a point I felt it was good enough to send out into the big wide world.
My baby was ready to be published.
But...
Over a year latter I have approached 17 different agent, all chosen as they had published books in the genre before.
In that time I have received three positive replies - I/we loved the book but ... I/we hope you find someone else to publish it. Or or usually a short standard email or no reply at all.
A bit of a dead end then...

So I have come to a decision. I will publish "Book of Spells" as an ebook.
I wrote it purely for pleasure, and if others get pleasure from reading the tale then that will be a bonus. At least it will not be sitting on my hard drive collecting the electronic equivalent of dust!

I have a bit more research to do working out the best way to go about this. Read that as cheapest and still effective, but should hopefully be able to provide a link where you will be able to get a copy.

So here's to Pyewacket and co being unleashed onto the world for others to read.
All the best
Bill
