Publishing Update - May 2014


 
It’s a long time since anything was posted on my personal blog but things have not been quite so inactive off-stage.   There’s the regular postings on the Compass Books blog http://www.compass-books.net/blogs/compass and Facebook facebook.com/JHPCompassBooks - not to mention the launching of the new quarterly online CB magazine, Writer’s Wheel  at http://www.o-books.com/blogs/obooks/writers-wheel-2/ and the typescript for Creating Meaningful Dialogue is now in production.  There’s also a mini-series called ‘Starting Your Writing Career’ on the CB blog that gives a step by step and book by book guide to the different disciplines of creative writing.

 I’m now up to Chapter Fourteen of my novel ‘House of Strange Gods’ and hopefully the first draft should be finished by the end of the summer.   On the home front it’s been quite a stressful year with hospitals playing a large part in the drama and the loss of three of my beloved greyhounds: Alfie, Harry Boy and Jack due to old age and accident.   Fortunately writing is my hobby as well as work, so work is often the only relaxation at the moment – and I’m still working on two more novel ideas in my head!

 If you want to keep up to date with what’s going on, go the Compass Books sites.
