about me

I like writing, writers and books.

I come here occasionally for fun. I also occasionally do critiques. Please don't ask for one unless you really want it. I'll give you my opinion, and won't pretend it's anything other than my opinion, but I won't pull punches.

Hi Jenny, Thanks for suggesting I read this - I read and enjoyed the whole extract. It's a very interesting book that's well written and an original take on the fairy tale. You mentioned that you thought there might be a problem with the age group, so I thought I'd tackle that. For what it's w... view book

Hi there, Thanks for asking me to have a read of this - I read the first three chapters. You're a very talented writer, and there's a lot here that reminds me of Harry Potter - the put-upon kid living in a family not his own (useless father notwithstanding), the induction into the magical world e... view book

HI TB, Thanks for suggesting I read this. It's a great story with all the elements of a really good thriller. For my money, it could be fine tuned a bit. It feels very cluttered at the moment, and maybe it needs to be pared down. For example, the scene in the coffee shop. He's obviously tense ... view book
