*BOOKS* The hidden reason why what you write, and what you read, truly matters.
There is a hidden, undiscussed reason why the books you write or the books you read genuinely matter. This is the story of how I discovered the truth the hard way. (NOTE: It’s not a post for the faint-hearted or the easily scared, but it’s an important one.)

*BOOKS* ‘Redemption’ is a paperback: the saga behind the saga.
Do you have a few hours to hear the story behind the publishing of the paperback of Redemption? No?

Whether you read my books or not, you might find the behind the scenes of the publishing industry eye-opening.
