Welcome to my author website! Here you can follow my blog, purchase books and keep up on the news. You can follow my Facebook Page or Twitter (see the usual icons above) or, if you feel like a deeper dive, you can subscribe to my Substack Newsletter community. My Substack is dedicated to the craft of writing and my WIPs in progress (The White Rose of Stalingrad) and all things Romulus Buckle (currently Book 4: Romulus Buckle and the Guns of the Babylon). The publishing world is changing rapidly and I'm fully independent now, so your patronage and support is highly appreciated. I'm offering early reads and lots of goodies in return.
