I was pleased to be interviewed by Reader's House magazine. Here is the article providing some detail of the genesis of Jox McNabb's and my writing. I hope it is of interest.

Halfwits.

He visited my school when I was a boy. I remember being very impressed. I'm not sure whether he inspired me to write, but here I am with six published novels.

To mark with eternal gratitude the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day (VE Day).

Most authors will know how blue you feel when one of your 'babies' is stalling. That's when carefully considered reviews can really lift the spirits. This is a five star GR review from a US reader. She gets me.

It’s disappointing when a book doesn’t do as well as its siblings. My ghost story has had some great reviews, so I’d encourage Jox McNabb readers to give it a try. At less than a £/$ on Kindle, that’s a lot of reward for very little risk.

Given it was St Paddy's Day and well, I'm a Paddy, my audiobook publishers set my book up on a deal. I've been a bit slow off the mark, but here it is. Cheers.

To mark the passing of the 'Last of the Few' Group Captain John 'Paddy' Hemingway DFC, I thought I'd share the Youtube tribute created I believe by his son. I feel sure that Paddy will cross paths with Jox McNabb at some point.

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone. You showed greater respect for my advancing year than my daughters. Here are the cards to their old Dad. I suppose I should be grateful they have a sense of humour and an artistic bent. PS: I do collect golfballs when walking the dog and yes, I do...

A hundred reviews and ratings in nine days, that's rather pleasing. Includes a one star from a 'Mr Magoo' in Oz, but the rest are all four and five. Happy days.

Just a backbone.
