And Another One

by Bernard Davis February 10, 2021 No Comments

The second of my books to hit the shelves inside three weeks ‘The Book Without a Story’ grew out of the NaNoWriMo movement in 2019. I put the results of that rush to one side for a while as I worked on ‘Dark Roads’. Now both are completed and available on Amazon. You can get […]

Daek Roads has now gone public, its available on Amazon as a paperback and as an ebook in the Kindle reader. I added a simple advertising campaign as well, so let’s see if it can generate a few sales. I think a sequel will appear in due course, but got one or two other irons […]

What Now? – The Answer

by Bernard Davis January 21, 2021 No Comments

There a couple of things to keep me occupied, the first is getting a cover designed for Dark Roads. Graphical design is far from my strongest suite, but I’ll struggle through until I get something that looks close enough to what I want. Unsplash here I come, I think. It looks like they have lots […]

What with Covid and lockdowns and music exams and all, its been a while. But hopefully, things are starting to settle down a little now. I”ve finished re-writing parts of Dark Roads, added a little more descriptive narrative as suggested by an early reader. Picked out lots of typos and silly simple mistakes. In particular, […]

Now what? Well, agents and publishing houses it seems don’t always send rejection slips many […]

Completed the First Draft

by Bernard Davis May 27, 2020 No Comments

Dark Roads is finished, at least in first draft form, the final word count stands at just under 101k. making this the longest first draft I’ve managed. I wonder if this is the case of never mind the quality, feel the sidth? Still, the story is now done. I know that there is definitely going […]

Almost There

by Bernard Davis May 25, 2020 No Comments

Currently standing at 99500 words or so, Dark Roads has almost come to the end. Just a little closing off, some sort of an epilogue and it can be printed for a detailed edit. Still got a lot of work to do though and there are going to be some inconsistencies that will need editing […]

Judging the Length

by Bernard Davis May 10, 2020 No Comments

When I started the current work – Dark Roads, I made a guestimate as to the length and the target date. Eighty thousand words seemed a reasonable length for a full-sized novel and because I expected to need a certain amount of research, 30th June seemed a reasonable end date. Well, it’s the tenth of […]
