Devil’s Gambit – The audiobook

It’s been a long time coming but my first thriller Devil’s Gambit makes it’s way to audiobook next week. As soon as I have the links to the distribution, I will be posting them up but staking out the book’s Amazon page would probably not be a bad idea. Findaway Voices have done as cracking …

Every picture tells a story

Tomorrow is 100th commemoration of the battle at Vimy Ridge, considered to be the battle that moved Canada from the status of a dominion to a full fledged country in the eyes of the British Empire. Right now I’m reading Tim Cook’s book, “At the Sharp End,” a history of Canada’s involvement in the first …

Man at work…

I know I’ve been remiss at posting as of late but with good reason. I’ve been finishing up the rough draft of Devil’s Ante. Originally it was slated to go to the Editor on April 20th. “Plenty of time,” I thought. Then two weeks ago, my editor contacted me and let me know he’d had …

Devil’s Gambit – The Audiobook

I thought I’d give you an update on the progress of Devil’s Gambit, the audiobook. As previously stated, I’m doing this through findaway.com and they’ve been great to deal with.

Vellum

As much as I like Scrivener and MS Word for the act of writing my books, I’ve never been too happy with the offering on PC for the typeset and layout of my books. I’d been looking at Vellum on the IOS platform to help me correct that. Of course at the time I didn’t …

2016 Breakdown

For those of you in self publishing that might be interested, I thought I’d release my sales numbers for the year. I ran a fair number of promotional campaigns through Amazon and I’ll be honest, while the ROI was great for me, that was to be expected in a year where I didn’t release any …

Another Step

Good news! I’m in the initial stages of turning Devil’s Gambit into an audio book through Findaway Voices. I’ve been looking to do this for some time now but the Amazon ACX system was defeating me at every turn due to my Canadian address. The process is not cheap but the chance to expand my …

Generator 2 with Cmdr. Chris Hadfield

Last night Darleen and I went to Generator 2. It’s a bit hard to describe the show’s format. It’s sort of TED Talk meets, Music with some performance art thrown in for good measure. We’d been at the inaugural show the year before and as I’m a fan of Cmdr. Hadfield (because excellence should always …
