Great news! The Unforgiven Dead has been chosen as one of the additional winners of Inkshares’ Mystery & Thriller contest. I’m not one for hyperbole, but this is THE BEST THING THAT’S EVER HAPPENENED TO ME! (Apart from the birth of my children. And my wedding day. Obviously...)

There is, however, still a lot of hard work ahead as I work with Inkshares’ editorial ninjas to polish my manuscript into a polished thing of shinny magnificence. (Ok, maybe I am one for hyperbole.)

Anyway, I would like to thank Inkshares and everyone who has supported my project. There’s been times in the last ten years when I’ve seriously considered quitting this writing lark and taking up philately instead. All seems worth it now!     

Hi everyone,

I’m here to give you a brief update on the status of Red Circle. Before diving in I’d like to first thank everyone who has followed this book, left comments and reviews, and spent any time reading my work. I’ve only been on Inkshares for a couple of weeks but I’ve received a tremendous amount of feedback and support in that short amount of time.

Some of you have kindly been asking me for more of this book, and for those of you who are eager for additional chapters I have good news. I have 10 chapters completed, which is nearing the halfway point in the novel. I’ve outlined the remaining sections and I’m in the process of writing more. I’m also taking time this week to review and revise what I’ve already written to ensure it is in the best shape possible before sharing it with the Inkshares community.

To that end, I’ve just added revised versions of the first two chapters, and you can expect additional chapters in the next week or two.

Thank you again for your time and support and I look forward to hearing more about what you think of Red Circle!

Sincerely,

Matt Farley
