AFK sequel still on its way

Whenever I write a new book, I always read it straight through on the computer once I've finished it, editing and correcting as I go.  Then I get it formatted and a proof copy printed, which I read through again with a pencil to correct any mistakes I find.  That's where I'm at right now with 'AFK, Again'.  It should be ready for release in another two to three weeks.

In the meantime, here's the cover :)

Here's my January column for AVENUE magazine.  Photography this month is by Annough Lykin.

A new thing happened to me in November: someone posted a bad review of one of my books on Amazon. Not a badly written review, I should add, but a review that judged one of my books to be bad. ‘Junk’, I believe, was the word used. The reviewer described my plot as ridiculous, which isn’t at all an unfair comment because in certain respects it is. But then, James Bond films are ridiculous and we still enjoy them. In ‘AFK’ – the book in question – I created an unlikely Second Life® scenario in order to create ‘adventure tension’; in my latest novel, ‘AFK, Again’ I’ve attempted to do the same.
