Your Christmas Cracker from Alex Breck!

Christmas Cracker

Christmas Bundle Price – Get ALL 3 Published Thrillers at a 25% Discount

Hey, I know present buying can be a real hassle sometimes!

Just because you know someone really well doesn’t mean they can be a breeze to buy for. And the last thing you want to do is waste a ton of money on a present they won’t like.

But… I have your back, my friends.

If you know your friend likes reading fiction and perhaps some black humour thrillers by Scottish authors then why not improve your odds of success by buying them a bundle of books. Maybe they won’t like one but totally love the other two?

Buying a whole bunch of books by different authors could be expensive however.

Let me sign your books

And your chances of finding some that have been personally signed by the author will be slimmer than stumbling across an honest politician!

Until now.

You can grab all of my three published thrillers; the first two Ridge Walker books plus my recent Scottish thriller,The Devil You Know, for a Christmas Bundle 25% discount!

And as soon as you give me your mailing address I will sign your books and post them off

PS: Here’s a very recent review for The Devil You Know from Amazon in the US:

What kept me reading was the quality of the writing, in a word: marvelous, an example of modern prose, impossibly long sentences that somehow work out, a sardonic sense of humor and a host of colorful characters that include the traditional tired detective, grumpy old boatman, a prominent local criminal and a beautiful female assassin. I am not a Scot, and I had some trouble following some of the colorful dialogue that illustrates the peculiarities of Scottish conversation. The effort was worth it. More than a story, I recommend this book to readers who appreciate good writing. I am truly impressed and hope to see more books by Alex Breck.

The Thing Speaks For Itself by A.S.A. Durphy

The Thing Speaks for Itself: A missing person. A fading mind. Time is running out.The Thing Speaks for Itself: A missing person. A fading mind. Time is running out. by A.S.A. Durphy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this fast-paced and tautly written thriller. Gritty and unflinching at times, it nevertheless manages to combine hip humour and wry observations that will make you smile. Gracie is a tough cookie who has issues and can be awkward to handle but, if she can be hard on the bad guys, she is even harder on herself. Although a Scot, I once lived in San Francisco many years ago and this excellent tale accurately evoked my memories of the city and it’s environs. I can see hard-headed Gracie being played by a younger Jodie Foster perhaps and many of the characters were well-rounded and believable. A fine read which kept me hooked until the end. I will wait for more from A.S.A. Durphy.

Did You Survive NaNoWriMo?

NaNoWriMo is done and dusted once again!

 

nanowrimo
That was my third year of being a NaNoWriMo Winner and this time it really was down to the wire. I had to write about five thousand words on the 30th of November to get my word count in on time!

I can thoroughly recommend it for anyone who has maybe heard of the National Novel Writing Month but hasn’t given it a try yet. Writing 50,000 words in 30 days seemed like an insurmountable challenge for me when I first looked at it but IT IS possible.

NaNoWriMo won’t guarantee that your fifty thousand words will be a literary masterpiece but it will build up your writing muscles and you will be able to write faster, with less procrastination and like any other craft, the more time you spend doing it, the better you become.

So make a date in your diary for next autumn and give it a go. Plan early with your plot all worked out beforehand or be a ‘pantser’ and make it up as you go along…

What’s Your Story?

And if you were a NaNoWriMo Winner this year then drop me a line and let us know how you found success. Or if you crashed and burned like I did one year then share your story and maybe you can help others avoid the same pitfalls.
