Write It Right
‘Write It Right’.
Is writing a book top of your bucket list? If writing is a burning ambition for you, and you don’t know how to start, I wrote this book for you. I’ve been writing all my life, and seriously with a view to publication for around six years. I’ve made a lot of mistakes along my writing journey. I wrote this book so you don’t make the same mistakes.
My Future Book
‘Cross of Anjou’ Part 1: Billy’s Story is another draft novel and I have created an idea for how the front cover may look. ‘Cross of Anjou’ will become a series of three novellas.
The first is the story of a young boy (Billy Baxter). Billy grows up in wartime Britain, and forms friendships with the young men of a local RAF Bomber Command Squadron airbase.
The second in the series continues the story through the eyes of Billy’s surrogate mother-figure, Esther Gray.
In the third novella in the series, Fred Gray takes up the baton of narrator, and we see how adversity shapes the airmen and local community as the war draws to a close.
