    Hi Anthony, I’m sorry to hear the news and I am one of those people who probably understands quite well. I am quite close to my father in a strangely distant way that I can’t possibly explain but I’ve been anticipating similar news for years as my father is also an alcoholic. I would grieve for what my father has taught me, the man he can be sober, but I grieve for those things anyway.

      Thank you for your reply, Emma. It is a very difficult thing to explain, a personal set of emotions that for every person who has a similar tale, will experience in a differing way. It is a horrible thing to sub-consciously anticipate and, when the time comes, it is, for me, a very strange thing to deal with. I shall hold onto any good memories that rise to the fore and I hope, when the time comes, I hope you can, too. Take care.

    I can really identify with the “But I don’t read fantasy” comment and I do find it frustrating. But then it is also true that I need to read more widely. The problem is that I get bored with contemporary fiction, I need more “what if” stimulation of my imagination.
    But I’m concerned that you would liken your writing to George R R Martin without having read his work. I have read his novels and am inspired by him in my writing, but feel it would be presumptuous of me to draw such a comparison. One day, just maybe, someone else might make such a comparison and I would be delighted. Sure it’s helpful that many people are now aware of him and he is an exemplar of the field’ but still…..

      Hi Clive. Thanks for your kind response. Sorry, I should have clarified it a bit better with regards to George R.R Martin’s books- I liken my book to the Tv series, not the books, because of the style/feel of the program (which I have seen) as a quick way of letting someone know what type of fantasy it is – I had a kind review recently which did actually say ‘If you like Game of Thrones, you’ll love this’ 🙂

      The inspiration behind my writing was actually the fabulous David Gemmell, whose work I love and miss terribly. And, as you rightly say, it would be presumptious of me to liken my own work to the great man, but, should I be lucky enough for a reader, one day, to draw a comparison with my literary hero, I would be a happy, honoured man, indeed.

      I totally understand your need for more ‘what if’ as well.

      A true ‘Legend’ of British Fantasy. With so many wonderful tales, I couldn’t chose a favourite – although, I will never forget the feelings, the emotions I had with the first book of his I read, ‘Knights of Dark Renown’ and the influence it had upon me.

      Hi Emma. They (Welsh Cakes) certainly are wonderful, going to be having one (or two) with my mid-morn cuppa today 🙂

      In amswer to your questions, I have lived in Wales for four years now and whilst I was born in Berkshire, I love Wales, its people and way of life here (Welsh Brew is a brand of tea from Wales – not sure if it is available outside Cymru).

      It was my wife Amy, who helped me break that barrier, give me the confidence I needed to take that next step from having it sat on my laptop, to believing that I may have a story other people would like to read. Up to that point, the only real tentative step I had taken was to send, many years before, the first chapter of Whispers off to be critiqued (it was a short story back then and bare bones compared to how it appears in the book) – I had a reply saying if I could flesh out the story some more, I would have a very readable piece of fiction… so that was a big boost – but then, as life always has a way of doing, it got firmly in the way.
      I struggled with balancing a full-time job and writing Shadows of a Storm, which is why, sadly, it took a lot longer to arrive – but since Nov 13, I have been part-time and that is why things have started to happen a lot quicker now. I have a routine at last.

      My real barrier now, is me. I am my own worst critic and I beat myself up probably far too much over all the promotion I have to do for even one person to become aware of me. It means a lot to me when people read my book (whether they like it or not) and it keeps me going through the dark days of self-doubt.
      I have a literary agent, also, which is such a boost to my confidence and it keeps me going on my path, which at times can be a lonely one.
      But I wouldn’t change any of it for a second 🙂

    Oh my goodness, I didn’t realise you published with Author House first time round – I have read SO many bad things about them, not least of all some guy who paid £3000 to go with them, and all he received was a badly edited and produced book, priced so highly that no one bought it! Glad you got out of that contract – this is why I blog about these scammers, and urge new writers to understand that publishers pay authors, not the other way round.

      Hi Terry. Yes, I didn’t really know what I was doing at the start. I basically paid £600 (so I got off lightly by the sounds of it) for them to produce the book and cover, which you can create for free on Amazon these days. Back in 2011 , unless I missed it, I don’t think there was that option for me then, and I had spent a year sending the manuscript off to publishers, only to hear the standard “no thanks” after months and months of waiting – so I thought I would go for it and just get myself out there.

      The layout of the novel was all down to me, which was why it did look very good inside – AH did nothing with that, just added in copyright blurb. I had very little support through the process, other than to get a few proofs through, but, of course, if you wanted ‘extras’ you would have had to pay for that privelage.

      It did get me out there, give me a small platform to shout from – but all of that was because of my hard work – if I thought my large word count paperbacks are fairly pricey on Amazon these days, Whispers was listed (and I had no control on that if I recall correctly) by AH for something stupid like £17.50 – basically, I sold all the copies myself at shows etc., and only a very small few copies online – so much for the amazing exposure AH would give me.

      The only positives I can see from my own personal experiences with them was that it did get me out there, and, to their credit, the paperback quality that AH produced was of a much higher standard than the ones I recieve from Amazon – but I really did have to pay for that privelige.

    Yes, that’s the problem with vanity presses – they’ve already made their money from the author, they don’t need to promote the books. I can see how authors who really want to have their books in paperback will try this option – I never saw myself as anything other than an ebook seller.

    I don’t seen anything wrong with going with a vanity press if you know what you’re doing, and why; I reviewed a book a while back from a guy who had gone with Troubadour (who seem to be the best of them), simply because he wanted the paperbacks and proofreading service they offered. The problem comes with these scammers who call themselves ‘traditional publishers’ and flatter the authors into thinking that they have a real publishing deal.

    • Reply
      rangerant
      April 29, 2019 at 10:43 am

      Sadly, as always, the bad companies seem to outweigh the good ones. I had not heard of Troubador. I think AH have re-branded themselves now, so I have no idea who/what name they are operating under.

      Amazon’s service makes it very easy to use for new writers, and the option to have a paperback as well is an added bonus for those authors who want to go that route as well.

      Yes, I think my motto is, “if you are paying anything for your deal, it is not a deal.”

      If I was starting out today, I would not start off the same way I did – but, I guess, this is what the journey is all about – the adventure. I am learning something new every day, it seems. let’s hope that by talking about it, we can help others, too.

I am always so humbled when people tell me how much they loved one of my tales – especially so, when they have discovered me through their local library. When I am not off adventuring through my imagination, I work two days a week in my local library in the Vale of Glamorgan, and I can tell you that my smile when I read your message, stretched from the coast here to Pembrey Sands.
      I truly hope you enjoy the continuing adventures ahead of you and I would really appreciate it if you are able to spare some more of your valuable time to share your thoughts on Whispers of a Storm with your fellow readers in a review. Word of mouth can be just as powerful as those written on the page, and it would certainly help to spread awareness of my work even further.

    With regards to reviewing, most people tend to use sites like Amazon to leave reviews, or Goodreads. Either of those would help, if you have access to them, and of course, the best way is to tell people yourself about books you have enjoyed.

    I’m so glad you can visualise it that way, it’s excatly how I write my novels, picturing each scene as if I were watching a film, or epic tv show.

    Let’s hope that one day, Khadazin and Cassana’s will be read (and who knows, seen) by many, many more people.

    Just finished reading “Vengeance of a Storm” the last of the Storm trilogy and it is with some regret – I didn’t want the story to end. The trilogy has been written for the romantic adventurer creating hat fulls of skulduggery and valour in equal measure which is occasionally soothed by the promise of romance. The plot is wrought by the sheer nastiness and heroic selflessness of the of the villains and heroes at play and drops ice water or honey into the cauldron to pull the reader deeper into the political intrigues of the Vales. I have to say a special mention to the villain cum hero Arillion who by himself could fire a good many yarns.
    Well done Anthony – what a bloody good film this literary masterpiece would make. Don’t be shy – send a synopsis to the intelligent – you never know!

    Here’s hoping that we will both return to The Four Vales, once again soon .

    And I STILL haven’t watched Parasite…!!

    Adored Joker but found The Lighthouse too slow… I know it’s artistic, atmospheric, etc etc, but it just didn’t grab me, and we turned it off after about half an hour.

      Parasite is a must watch – it’s hard to put into words how enjoyable it was. I totally get where you are coming from about The Lighthouse, and we almost gave up on it, too. I am glad we didn’t – it’s stayed with me, that’s for sure. It may be a long time before I watch it a second time (and I daresay my wife will not watch it with me again), but I am looking forward to delving into again – though I may have to put the subtitles on to get everything being said 🙂

    Better Call Saul has got better and better! Easily as good as Breaking Bad now.

      Yes, it sure has. I am in good company, it seems in my views. I can’t even predict how this will all end! am hoping it ties up prefectly with how we meet him in Breaking Bad. That would have the best cameos in recent TV history.

    I remember this – it was brilliant. Yo respect to Michael K Williams, one of my favourite actors ever…. and I also love Joshua Jackson.

    You’ve made me want to watch it again!

    A fine collection! It’s so long since I watched Fargo that I can’t remember what I thought of it, but tick tick for Queen’s Gambit, and I really must try The Last Kingdom again – loved the first season, but we watched ep 1 of S2 and thought it had become a Happy Shopper Vikings. We will re-visit!

    Loving the TV posts – keep ’em coming!

      Thanks, Terry, Glad you are enjoying them (and if my love of these reviewed shows makes people want to watch/re-watch them, I am a happy man). Give TLK another go (first few of season 2 are a bit meh, as you have said – but defintely worth sticking with).

      Happy watching!

    I just started Kiss Me When I’m Dead last night. It’s a fantastic read with interesting characters. One of the best things about this book is that it is written in Present Tense! After I took a screenwriting class I started writing in Present Tense and haven’t looked back. And Dominic does a great job with First Person, too. I’ve had lots of difficulty with First Person. I tend to blather on about nonsense. Fortunately, Dominic’s wiseass protagonist does a perfect job with this narration. His opinions of the characters he encounters is quite hysterical and appropriate. Now that I’ve started reading Dominic’s series, all my own writing will be set aside.

      Hi Adam. Sorry for the delayed response. So glad you loved it! I am currently enjoying Kiss Me When I am Dead myself, and I whole-heartedly agree! I have tried, and failed in present tense before, but Dominic’s style, and he has plenty of it, has certainly inspired me to try again. Enjoy the rest of his series!
