THE RIVER

The River is available in paperback or pdf. (coming to Kindle and other leading E-readers soon)

Follow the story of Constable Matthew Temple as he finds himself transported, in a manner of speaking, to the distant future. Behind Aeson’s eyes he encounters Planet class spaceships, regenerates in skin-booths, communicates using inner-screens, meets children who’ve gone through accelerated youth and dreams of home, the Hollow-Earth.

Writing this has been fun, challenging and rewarding. I’ve learnt how to write what I know and what I don’t. I’ve been able to visualise what writing a book looks like. And, most importantly, I’ve realised that the best way to get ahead is to start.

Through this blog you can see how this story (and its cover) has been rising, rising some more and eventually totally risen (only to hit a last hurdle). You can also gain links to the freelancers that’ve helped me complete this work.

So, that’s where I leave you. This story is fun, engaging, sometimes horrific, always accessible and hopefully very interesting. Retail Price between £3.95 and £9.99.

[...] The River took 37 months, 44 chapters and more money than I wish to mention to complete. If I’d prepared, planned and estimated properly I would never have started, let alone completed it. If I’d never started I would’ve cheated myself out of a new skill and the enjoyment that came with it. [...]
