A Bevvy of Bookish Blogs

For the last few weeks my 365 Adventures in Writing and Entrepreneurship... 
 

...has been consumed with the craft of writing.

I am on the organising committee for Bristol Festival of Literature and I am in the final stages of writing the last book in the Sheridan and Blake Adventure Series - Gabriel's Game, Part 2: The Black Knight.


The Sheridan and Blake Adventure Series

 Gabriel's Game, Part 2: The Black Knight 


I'm aiming to have this book out by Christmas. It will be the last in the Sheridan and Blake Adventure series before I move on to the next project.

I'm in the final stages of the first draft. Here's the book blurb:





Gabriel's Game, Part 1: The White Queen

 
 

Is available now on Amazon

This is the first part of the book and I would recommend reading this before the next book. Get it now and read it in time for Part 2 to come out.

If you are new to this series of books I recommend at least reading Solomon's Secrets first. This is the second book in the series but stands on it's own.



Ideally you'll start with the first book, The Bronze Box


I've written a big chunk of the book during an August 31 day writing marathon.

Here's a blog post on 30 Days to First Draft
