Not much going on here.
1.) 22 Mar 2020 19:35:06
early doors though.
2.) 22 Mar 2020 23:26:22
Are you guys open?
{Ed002's Note - Absolutely - please share your story here.}

I have plenty of stories ed, looking forward to hearing everyone else’s though. I’m delighted they’ve opened this page again. I’d like to think I’ve acquired some knowledge about the publishing industry and only too happy to give what advice I can. Essentially I’ve made every mistake any budding new author has ever made. One might say spectacularly. But I’ve managed to somehow make a living out of it.
{Ed002's Note - Post what you did on the Liverpool page are - if the deal is still running - it is a great starter. I don’t read fiction myself, but I am sure many will be keen to pick up on it.}

Unfortunately, the deal ended. Some of my books are contracted to kindle unlimited (Netflix for readers- two months free if you sign up at this current time) so they’re strict on allowing free books for longer than a few days between contracts. I’m going to try get another free book up at some point because, yeah, it’s a lock down and reading is a wonderful release. For the record, and anyone wondering, my name is Robert j power, some people know me for the fantasy series “spark city†series. If anyone asks about when the sequel is out, I’ll kill them. As soon as I’ve got some free goodies, I’ll post up the link here. As I have said before, I’m delighted to give advice on the industry, from writing the first few lines, to submitting (don’t) to everything after book is written. We’re all about to be locked down for the next few months, might be the right time to have a crack at writing.
{Ed001's Note - when did you say the sequel is out?}

Cutting a fine line there ed- sounding like one of my sycophants. 100,000 words and counting. As scary as things are, I’m just doing my best to push on, like everyone really. I put up a short story on my site if anyone’s interested. I don’t have a link, I have an internet wizard guy who does all of that for me. Just google Robert j power. In a few days I’ll put up a proper post on what help I can give for aspiring authors to make a living. I don’t expect much traffic on here at the moment but hopefully between all the sites, there’ll be enough readers and authors to kick this off.
{Ed001's Note - a sycophant? That is the nicest thing anyone has ever called me.}

Anyone read the book, the damage done, by Warren Fellows? It portrays his time in the notorious Bangkwang prison, nicknamed "Big Tiger". Fellows was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1978, convicted of heroin trafficking between Bangkok,  Thailand and Australia.
I read this book years ago and was the first time I really enjoyed a book. Turned off the tv to continue reading it, read afew good books since then but this definitely my favourite.

Fitting with how we are all locked in at the moment. Closest I read was “mr nice†about an infamous English drug dealer who had quite an interesting story to tell. Would recommend. A great book beats any tv for me. Just pure escapism.

Howard marks. I was given the book years ago by my brother-in-law but I never read it tbh. I mostly read sports autobiographies now. Reading Tyson Furys atm.
