Hi, all. I’m back from my travels and preparing to start on a new book.

It’s good to be able to report that, so far since its release, ‘1893’ has been doing well, and, thanks to the promotions and you, the three Clearwater series also continue to attract new readers. That’s good news, and from reviews, it seems readers are mostly happy with my work. My aim is to entertain, so as long as readers are entertained by the stories, I am happy.

So, for now, it is back to writing, and I’m afraid, back to the relentless promos and publicity needed to keep me in writing materials. So, let’s kick off 2026 with these:

Promos

I have three promos to share this month, as you may have seen in yesterday’s newsletter. In case you didn’t, here they are:

New Year, New Attitude: Memoirs, Poetry, Relationship, Inspirational reads

Here’s something slightly different from my usual promotion. It’s a collection of 28 titles, all of which are non-fiction. In fact, they are more along the lines of inspirational fic, women’s fic, literary fiction, memoirs, poetry, etc. There are no self-help books, and nothing has been done by AI.

I have entered my godfather’s biography, ‘Bobby, a Life Worth Living’, into this promo.

Steamy MM Winter Nights

There are 133 titles in this collection of steamy MM romance novels, all of which are available from Amazon. All kinds of tropes are included; there are some great covers, very tempting taglines and blurbs, and loads of variety.

Have a look and prepare to curl up with a steaming hot mug of this is how male love is.

All Flavours of MM Romance

There are over 20 books still available in this special promo, all MM Romance, but all different tropes and flavours are included.

That’s that, for now. I aim to be back on Saturday, when I might have some news for you about TikTok and other things I don’t understand!
