Hi Barbara,

The review was well-deserved and I'm glad it cheered you up considerably. 'Thorn's is a wonderful story, and to pack so much detail and emotion into a book of that length was a great acheivement. So well done.

Don't be too downhearted about the literary agent thing. I received dozens of rejections of my various books before finding one. Did you try Aidana yet?

thanks for the congratulations on the award. I just hope that 'Purple Death' does as well this month. Graeme, who designed the cover has been very depressd himself lately and a win would certainly do wonders in lifting his spirits.

Best regards and look forward to hearing from you soon.

First of all congratulations on your book cover win my friend! I'm thrilled and humble at the same time over your gracious review for my novella, Thorns of an Innocent Soul. It warms my heart that you and your sweet wife enjoyed it. Your review and kind comments could not have come at a better time. I've been feeling somewhat depressed over my lack of enthusiasm for my latest novel, Hollowing Screams. I've already received a few literary agent rejections, and knowing this is the proccess we must endure, sure does not make it any easier. So much for poor me... I am humble to get such a wonderful review of my work from such a great writer as yourself.

Hi Barbara,

I've finshed the book. It is indeed an engrossing and surprising tale. I would never have guessed the revelation at the ned as I was reading the book. You managed to sustain an emotional high throughout the pages and it was a real edge of the seat read which always left me feeling a little uneasyabout what was about to happen next. It was in many ways a wonderful illustration of how abuse can lead to mental istability and obsession in adulthood. You achieved something in a short novella that you can be rightly rpoud of. I'll be placing a review along these lines on Amazon for you in both the USA and the UK. I hope all's well with you and thank you for producing a beautifully crafted story with a very unexpected twist in the tale!

Hi Barbara,

Thanks for the blog comment. Glad you like the covers. I'm sure you'll find a little bit of space for them when they come out...hehe Thank you, I'm honored that you want to add my works to your collection.

Juliet has finished "Thorns". She really enjoyed it, and tells me it's a compelling tale that held her attention from start to finish. She really liked the edning which she says took her by surprise.

Now I can get my hands on it, I'll read it too and then put a review on Amazon for you.

Best regards

Brian

HI Barbara,

Yes, it looks as if I just got lucky then. I'm so pleased to have received one of the signed copies. It makes it that little bit special.

Have a great day.

Hollowing Screams (New Novel)

INTRO

As you look beyond the gate your eyes focus on a massive structure of concrete and stone that rises high above the valley and winding stream below. Except for the hallowing screams that sometimes come from inside and echo down through the valley, the gray fortress sits on the hill silent as death.

It should have had a condemned sign posted at the entrance. One of the souls living inside had been condemned long ago, condemned to a life of living in hell.
It is bizarre to say, but even in… Continue
