This year marks a decade since the publication of my first ever full length novel, the vampire horror, Ritual of Blood. It initally started out as an attempt to see if I could start, and then finish, a novel length story. I had tried to get a few started previously, but after a few pages I gave up. It took me about 18 months of work, on and off, and once I'd finished the first draft I wondered how far I could go with it - could I get it published. Well, the rest, as they say, is history, but looking towards the future, a brand new edition is just around the corner - and will be followed by the sequel that I began shortly after release of Ritual, got 3/4 of the way through, and then stopped, but am now finally continuing with.
This is the cover of the 10th Anniversary edition in paperback. It will also be available in ebook formats, firstly on Kindle, and then a few months later in ePub format for all other eReaders.
I still do not have a secure release date yet, but I'll make sure it will be available in the coming weeks rather than months.
A couple of weeks ago I happened upon an old folder of mine full of notes and plot ideas for stories that I thought I'd lost. Luckily, now I have it back it has fuelled me with determination to write more, so expect some more scary novels, and even at least one short story compilation.
So it looks like the next few years are all planned out for me, well, my writing is at any rate :)
