Hey I can't believe how well my book is doing on Amazon. I never actually thought I would be an author but my novel "Inside the Clock"
based on a true story, has been published in the Amazon Kindle store.
What I'm doing now is to trying to publicise it by going door to door
with cards while I collect my window cleaning money!
The
way Amazon works is that the higher your book gets, the more good
reviews it has then the higher it goes again to a place where more
people begin to see it so more buy it.... you get the picture. It's a
place where a lot of writers would dearly love to be; including me. But I
look at it this way; I never imagined I would write two books and have
thousands of people read them. That in itself is a privilege even if
most of those books were acquired whilst they were on offer for free.
I am trying to look at it altruistically rather than be disappointed that I never made a fortune out of it.
This book called "Inside the Clock"
is actually based on a true story of something that happened to me for
real in 1969. It was nothing extraordinary but it was something that has
bugged me for years. All the characters in the book are actually real
as are the places and animals. It is a real story but with some
fiction thrown in to make it interesting. In this way I am able to write
with confidence since I was actually there and most of the events
described in the book did take place right down to the news events of
the era.
I have several interesting reviews so far
which gives me some confidence. The person giving one of the reviews
seemed to think that I had actually travelled back in time. But anyway, make up your own minds as to what is real and what is fiction in this, my first novel - "Inside the Clock"
