Letting Go Ain’t Easy!

At last! Empress Gold is finished – done and dusted, uploaded and already I miss her. She’s on her own, out there on the internet jostling for recognition and there’s no way back. I pretend it doesn’t bother me, but it does. Just a book I tell myself; one amongst Amazon’s millions, fighting, hopefully upwards, through the Kindle rankings. I guess that’s why writers don’t stop writing... We can’t let go.

I’ve started book number three and feel better already – going back in time to the eighteen hundreds, a pre Sons of Africa standalone (perhaps); some thirty pages in and enjoying the excitement. Delving into untold happenings and hardships has really got my heart pounding. The title is set, but as yet, I cannot tell you what it is. A tale of epic proportions, one which I hope will sit comfortably amongst the colonial skulduggeries of Africa’s great adventure stories. Got to stop, old Africa’s crooking her finger and demands that I follow. Hope you all stay with me.
