Rhys. The book.

Yes. Today I brought out a new book. Rhys. It became a huge one, but Yahoo Groups ended and I couldn't save the text I had written for the story. As this story was growing into a part of a larger 'world', where Rhys interacted with many characters that others on that author mailing list were writing. I think that went on for at least 2 years, and the ending was quite impressive. You may be able to imagine how…

Rhys

Meet Rhys. The young man who lives in Din Lligwy, Wales, in the time that the expansion of the Roman Empire is extending to the British Isles. Rhys just wants to be a Druid, and happily married to Keyna, the girl he had his eye on for a long time. The Roman invasion of England doesn't pass Wales by, and that's the start of a very strange journey for Rhys. Suddenly he finds himself in places and times he could…

Own store and Kindle

You may see 'my own store' pop up in places on book-pages. Yes, I'm trying to help people who want to avoid buying from the big tech bro places like Google, Amazon, etc. Click that option, find the Kindle you want to send the book to (one of the many Kindles you own, no doubt!) and then, in the details, you can find the email address where to send the epub file: You do need to make sure that Amazon…

Egypt Calling

Angie Kimball works as a collections manager and curator at the History and Heritage Museum and she loves her job. That happiness gets a big hit when a huge statue of Ramses II suddenly disappears without a trace. That disappearance is the start of a string of strange events and flashbacks with connections to ancient Egypt. A harp seems to play a crucial part in these connections, and it will deliver some amazing help in getting things back to normal.

Egypt

Another blog post. I'm not good at them, it seems, but then, there's never much to report about writing. It's writing this story, then that story, it seems. Today is different. Today I'm excited to tell you about a new story I've written. Okay, I'm excited about nearly all my stories, but this one is quite remarkable, as it deals with the now and ancient Egypt. Why am I so excited about this story? Because it's so intense. It jumps…

Newsletter

I wonder if anyone is interested in signing up for a monthly newsletter, where I sometimes put out some things. It will be a very low volume affair, about new posts on the site, progress in writing, books I'm reading, and sometimes a suggestion for books by other indie authors. Lately I've found Facebook to be very limiting in reaching readers. Only when I donate significant amounts of dollars or euros to them, will they make my posts there be…

Long overdue update

Yes, I've been very quiet here for the last few days. Weeks. Okay, months. I've also been very busy with lots of things. One of them is "work", that hobby which eats up so much time. Next to that, I acquired a new hobby. It looks like a harp, sounds like a harp and... yes, is a harp. Nera was very helpful in making this a short video... In writing parts, there is some progress too. I've dug up an…

Clara's Ogen. Hoofdstuk 39, deel 7

Op dat moment zette zijn vader wat muziek aan, via een draagbare luidspreker die Shelley verzorgd had, en vroeg zijn schoondochter ten dans. Ron verschoot; ze hadden wel het plan gehad om dat te oefenen, maar het was er nooit van gekomen! Hij had ooit wat dansles gehad, jaren geleden, maar Clara? Clara stond op en kreeg het voor elkaar om vader te volgen, terwijl Ron met zijn moeder danste. Shelley en Martin voegden zich daarna bij de twee dansparen,…

Clara's Ogen. Hoofdstuk 39, deel 6

Rons ouders waren er uiteraard ook, en die wandelden met het tweetal mee het park in. Ron had gevraagd om Clara niet 'weg te geven', maar ze zouden samen naar de plek lopen waar de ambtenaar van de burgerlijke stand op hen stond te wachten. De vrouw had er plezier in om dit huwelijk op zo'n bijzondere manier te voltrekken. Opeens kwam ergens muziek vandaan. Ron en Clara liepen langzaam naar de plek waar het zou gebeuren. Zoë en Shelley…
