Thank you for all the birthday wishes. I thought today would be a good day to announce I have signed an exclusive contract with Arizona based Potter’s Grove Press to publish my second novel, ‘The Kirkwood Scott Chronicles: A New Jerusalem.’ This is the sequel to last year’s ‘Skelly’s Square.’ I’m delighted to be working with the Potter’s Grove team, whose love of the written word and dedication to their authors convinced me this would be my new writing home.
Thank you to everyone who supported ‘Skelly’s Square’ and posted such great reviews. I hope you enjoy the new book just as much. It will hopefully be released in Autumn 2020.
