About her book:

This very-well-written, 398 page fantasy novel is about striving, overcoming fear, success, failure, courage, compassion, goals, camaraderie and the value of leadership, supportive friendship and respect for others doing their best in very challenging circumstances. It's also a fairytale inspired by the author's reading of Russian fairytales in Ukraine as a young person with hopes and dreams like everyone else. It is the first book in a projected trilogy and therefore introduces all the characters that will permeate any future sequels and thus it is a colorful parade of interesting, and often exotic and quite amazing, characters from start to finish.

It is also a book about magic, wizards, witches and derring-do, a vicious leprechaun, good and evil and all the animals that permeate this imaginative book speak English and show their feelings in all their revealing lights just like any human being. If you ever see animals in the same light again I, personally, will be surprised. This book comes from the heart and never leaves it. It has extremely beautiful, often lyrical, descriptions of things, locations and people and carries you into the author's very imaginative and incredible world with 22 of her illustrations, being two per chapter.

All illustrations, 14 of which are in color, are shown in full on the website at www.destiniesinmotion.com accompanied by relevant text from the chapter to which the picture relates. This allows the reader to see more deeply into how the author saw and put together her dream-like creatures and occurrences.

And the website, which we cordially invite you to visit as a "must", sets the tone for all the subsequent events and allows you deeper, and therefore more rewarding, insights into other persons' reviews and thoughts.

This large, 9 X 6 times 6 X 9 book, took almost two years to write and self-publish which itself was a very challenging learning process, not for the faint hearted as we discovered.

Printed by Create Space, a subsidiary of Amazon, and now for sale in the Trade Paperback version at $17.99 U.S., at the greatly-reduced price of $3.99 for the Kindle Ebook and $2.99 for all other eBooks, this whole package of emotions is frankly fine value for money and a great, exciting, and often highly amusing, read.

Finally, this is a tale for all ages. No animals are seriously hurt in the production (except for their feelings perhaps) and there is no inappropriate language or sexual inferences to occasion discomfort, but there is hate and love and all the other subtle nuances of typical human behavior which will be recognized as part of life's stream and I assure you it will be an enthralling ride .

Kind regards and enjoy.

Going to have a go at reading this interesting novel, I have great difficulty these days in reading anything more than an average chapter per week so it may take me some time.

 

First things first, the Editor, could he possibly be Roddy Rhodes ex Inverness by any chance ? I last met him in Germany during National Service

Sorry to digress but I am still intrigued by the coincidences re.my pm to you some time ago and wondered if there was another one looming. 

 

Best wishes.

As far as Roddy Rhodes is concerned you might be on to something. Tell you what, Bughtmaster, I will  ask him to send you a p.m. soon..

 

I do know he was out there about 1955 through 1957 at an air base named Jever doing his 2 years National Service but spent a lot of his time down a radar site hole in the ground at a place he once mentioned--sounded like Broxetel-- and felt like a mole when he came up for air.That's funny eh--should be, it's how I remember all this stuff.

If you prefer to talk to him rather than me, whom I think you will find much more interesting, go right ahead.; Indulge yourself  and get it out of your system. You'll be back though....you'll be back. 

 

Meantime go on, have a good read of Destinies in Motion; 12 Chapters at about 30 pages per chapter will have you ready for a nice kip every night for the next 1-2 weeks. Then you can let me know what you think of it. 

Then, of course, Mrs B. M. will want yer Kindle or Sony so she can read it too....she might like the young heroine falling for Validar, the knight in not -so- shining armour,  who came through the portal from another world by mistake. He saved her life so she is quite taken by him! Of course he has a nice horse  named Lachin, who can sure move his feet so....women, eh?   Maybe Mrs B. won't be able to go to sleep otherwise because your laughter will keep her  awake.. some of the characters in the book are real CHARACTERS and no mistake; thinks, reminds me of this site in a way, you never know where the next surprise is coming from......

 

Cheers, B.M.

Thanks Scarlet will be nice to get in touch if it is the same Rod I knew. Many gaps to fill in, the memory is ageing quicker than me so it will be interesting to see what transpires about the days of yore. 

 

Ordering Destinies in motion, Yes Mrs BM is an avid reader and not frightened to give an opinion so I will give you feedback later.

Not selling too well SP?...............re-advertising campaign?

[Scarlet Pimple]

Bughtmaster.   Himself has already sent you a p.m. and is awaiting a reply with bated breath. He's muttering under his breath  though  "who is this guy..etc etc? ".

 

Alex, one can never be complacent about sales. This is especially true of a business and it can creep up on you until one day you wake up and find that things are not what they used to be and it's a wake up call all right. So, onward and upward.

 

Unpublished authors cannot attract an agent of Traditional publishers because they are paid a commission and thus if the book doesn't sell then they don't get paid, so they are  nervous and timid right off the bat on taking a chance on any untried author. Thus self-publishers have to get off their buttie -wutties and sell their creation themselves. And, in the process, combat scepticism or inertia.

But an ebook for $2.99 U.S. is hardly likely to  have you crying in your beer if you don't like it so ..just take a chance and I will refund your $2.99 if you are not happy. BUT, you have to agree to read it from start to finish. Fair?

Hi Son of Scarlet, a quick mention that I have been in touch with himself, so maybe normality will return now.
