Writing and speaking events for March

Image
March and spring is on its way, hooray! So what have I got happening in March? Quite a lot actually. Aside from putting the finishing touches to the Inspector Andy Horton novel I’m writing there are a clutch of events. Firstly, my crime thriller novel In For The Kill is being featured in Read an E Book Week 7-13 March 2010. In For The Kill is set on the Isle of Wight on the south coast of England and is a thriller about what happens to one man when his identity is stolen. For Alex Albury, the hero, the nightmare that destroyed his life will only end in death; his or his tormentor’s. With its twists and turns the reader is sucked into a frightening world of deception, betrayal and revenge in a highly topical story that has its roots deep in the past. For one week only during Read an E Book Week people will be able to download a free copy of In For The Kill from my official web site. I’ll put a link on here nearer the time. On 15 and 16 March I’m off to the North East of England ...

A marine mystery crime talk onboard a marine masterpiece at Hartlepool Maritime Experience

There's a great new venue for my talk about my marine mystery crime and thriller novels in Hartlepool on 16 March and that's on board a restored paddle steamer the P.S.S. Wingfield at the Hartlepool Maritime Experience. I'll be on board this wonderful 1934 paddle steamer on 16 March 2010 at 2.30pm. There must be an idea for a new crime novel there! This unique event is being organised by Hartlepool Library. You won't need your sea legs either because we'll be tied up to the dock ( I hope so anyway). P.S.S. Wingfield is a former passenger ferry built in Hartlepool by William Gray & Co. She is the largest exhibit at the Museum of Hartlepool. Tickets cost only £2.00 and include tea and coffee. It will be a unique afternoon's entertainment. Numbers are limited though, so if you want to join me do book early to avoid disappointment.
