After releasing my last book, Access Denied – What Happened Next, back in November, and having published three other books in 2023, The Curse of Poker, BD and Thrashman – The Express FM Years, and my mother’s collection of poetry Written on the Road, I decided to take a short break from writing or anything to do with writing, bar the occasional marketing of the latest books I’d released.

I came back to a piece I’d started early last year and worked my way through it from the beginning, as I always do when returning to projects. It’s a horror story and I was really surprised that on reading what I’d written previously, how often I got goosebumps at the content. Really made me wonder that if it has that effect on me, and I wrote it, what the effect on someone else would be.

I now can’t wait to finish it and get it in front of someone to critique and get their feelings/thoughts on it. I’m hoping to release it at some point this year, most likely aiming for Halloween, if not before.
