Woo hoo! Two more 5* Reviews for Witherstone Trilogy :o)

Just coming up for air after spending a few weeks researching beneath the surface of the earth (plot-spoiler alert so I shall say no more ) and am emerging as a very Happy Bunny having found two brand new shiny 5* reviews
for Witherstone and The Hunt Begins! 
~


TerriAnn says Witherstone 'is a brilliant read' and in The Hunt Begins 'the pace and excitement grew' to such an extent that 'I won't be walking through the Wild Woods at night...' !

postscript: Just shows you that hiding from Facebook isn't always a good plan - I just found another fab review on there from Teresa -
 
The "Witherstone" trilogy, by Jane Brunning (a friend of my brother's) - a brilliant read, set in 17th century England...as one Amazon reviewer puts it, you become "...immersed in superstition, magic and dark political forces...a story about real life struggle. The plot is gripping and the narrative carries the story with pace..." The characters, especially the heroine, Eppie, are very real and engaging, and you really feel for her as she battles to try and save her family...so brave, and yet so vulnerable...
I could go on...but read it yourself and see...available from Amazon, Waterstones (Preston)

Thank you Teresa :o)

Now, back down the tunnel...

eKlectic Writing - Official Live Launch of The Book of Shadows!

Following the grand tradition set by my friend and
award-winning poet Terry Quinn, I'm
launching the final Witherstone book, The Book of Shadows,
with friends!

 
 
It'll be a fabulously eKlectic night mixing prose and poetry - and it will be great to catch up with my fabulously-talented friends!
It's FREE too, and is forming part of the NEW monthly live literature nights LexiKal at the fabulous Korova Arts Café Bar just off Fishergate in Preston.
 
See you there!

Books, Tea, and Shortbread Biscuits


Had a really fab afternoon in Waterstones, Preston officially launching  The Book of Shadows into the world with a book signing.


Not only did the books meet with some enthusiastic readers - from brand new first-timers (some of whom bought all three!) through to those avidly waiting for the final part in the trilogy, I met lots of lovely people, caught up with a few friends, AND was supplied with tea and DELICIOUS home-made shortbread BISCUITS (*thank you Chelsie :oP *).


*AND Waterstones are adding Book 3 to their recommended Christmas Reads list too!*

Getting as giddy as a kipper this week - not only do I have a book signing in Waterstones, Preston, to look forward to on Saturday, but a friend of mine has just received a pretty exciting Amazon recommended read...


Me? 



Nuff said.

Book Signing in Waterstones...!


Really looking forward to the official launch of The Book of Shadows out into the world at a book signing in Waterstones, Preston 
this coming Saturday, 26th October... ! 



I'll be lurking amongst the bookshelves from about midday until late afternoon so it will be lovely to see people and have a chat, and, who knows, maybe sign a few books too!
