Thank you for the support,
I have currently put LOFS on the back burner while I fininsh up a connected book, Heart Break for the Nerdist contest. 
Have a look if that interests you.

Thanks every one!

So, initially I wasn’t going to worry about doing TTG via Inkshares. Then just as I was putting the finishing touches on the book I saw Nerdist was holding a Sci-Fi Contest, thus I’ve decided to throw my book into the ring, one last time.  I figure the contest could be the best chance to get extra eyes on Through the Ghost. Either look for Through the Ghost in the Nerdist Contest or follow the link below if you want to help: https://www.inkshares.com/books/through-the-ghost-1c45ac

Thanks, and wish me luck.

Hello, 1000 Faces followers.

As I’m almost certain you’re all aware, 1000 Faces is part of the Nerdist Sci-Fi contest and is currently placed 4th. To be in with a chance of receiving Inkshares full publishing support, the book needs to place 3rd or higher. Due to the short length of the contest - it ends on June 25th - I’m going to come right out and ask you all for a big favour: please consider preordering and recommending this project to a friend. Today. Right now, even.

1000 Faces is set in a not-so-difficult to imagine near-future where the internet bubble has burst, creating an unprecedented era of paranoia as every part of the internet becomes accessible to the public. To maintain a shred of anonymity and privacy, people wear digital avatars - a mask, like a more high-quality, identity-concealing version of the photo filters we see on Snapchat and other social media. The main character, Kara Finch, is a designer of these masks for the ubiquitous MyFace corporation. She’ll find herself caught up in an attack on her companies code base, coerced into working with a new generation of cyber-terrorists and strong-armed by government snoopers. If you like Black Mirror, A Scanner Darkly, Mr Robot, or Gattaca, her story should tickle your fancy.

I’ll be sharing some draft content from the book soon. Keep your eyes on your inbox.

Hello, readers! Long time no write. I haven’t been in touch for a while, and that’s mainly because I haven’t had a lot to write to you about! 

Work on Witherfist continues at a steady pace. Right now, I’m in the process of some fairly large adjustments to the structure of the plot. I’ve heard from other authors in the Inkshares community that there is a lot happening in the way of preparing, polishing and publishing manuscripts - which is really promising. Given the timescales being quoted, and my current progress with Witherfist, it’s unlikely that the book will see publication before 2018, as I’m going to submit my manuscript to Inkshares in Autumn 2017 at the earliest. 

In other news, Inkshares launched a new publishing contest this week, looking for the next big sci-fi novel. I’ve tossed my hat into the ring with an entry! Why not, eh? You can follow the book - tentatively titled 1000 Faces - and if you want to support it, you can preorder right now. 1000 Faces is set in the near future, in a society where all of the internets secrets have been revealed. To try and maintain a modicum of privacy and anonymity in public, people use ’digital avatars’ to mask their faces - imagine Snapchat filters that you wear all day! The book follows a digital avatar designer who ends up tangled in cyber terrorism, government conspiracies and a whole host of ethical chaos. It’s a dash of Mr. Robot meets A Scanner Darkly via Gattaca with an unplanned detour into Invasion of the Body Snatchers.  

As a little bonus, I’d like to share with you a piece of ’flash fiction’ that I wrote for a sci-fi writing contest earlier this year. The World In A Teacup is a story that I wrote in just 48 hours, based on a handful of prompts. You can download it for free on Amazon / Amazon UK. If you don’t use a Kindle, there are other download options available via Pronoun.

Thanks for reading,
