about me

I write because there is little else to do with a laptop when watching some of the dire tv we have these days.

It also keeps one of my hands busy when the other is holding a drink

Love life and karaoke

Jess G

No job, no girlfriend, no hope. Life is bad for Steve until his cousin steps in to help. Then it gets worse.


As a favour to his aunt, Mark agrees to help out his cousin who is having a bad time of things. With unemployment and a five month depression hanging over him, Mark plays the puppet master and helps sort out Steve's life. With the perfect replacement girlfriend in mind and a crowd of beer loving friends what could possibly go wrong? Well there is her ex who is having trouble taking no for an answer and is re-inventing the definition of stalking. Not to mention Mandy herself who is famous for her mood swings and terrible temper which Steve starts to uncover quite early on. But every path to love has its bumps and while there is beer to drink and karaoke nights at their local things can't be too bad. Until Daniel Tate steps in. Angry, psychotic and terrifying. And also the best friend of Mandy's ex.

I thought this was pretty good. A book I would certainly pick up for a holiday for a nice beach read or an airport wait and don't take that as a slight on your work because it's enjoyable.

Yes This is what I call a decent bit of work, one comma missing was the only error I picked up, (paragraph 2: devout religious. Good as anything out there on the shelves? Yes. Does it keep me interested? Yes. Will it do well on this site? It had better, I don't back bad books so get to work... view book

Graham Impressive opening, punctuation may need a little work but does not affect the story at all. Good conflict which is essential in this genre. My only gripe is when Ben shot Jacob he knew he hit him in the ankle yet in my head I imagined the church to be dark. Was this my mistake? Not ... view book

A good story which fits well into your chosen genre. I wasn't sure about Charlotte's promiscuity at the beginning but these modern career women eh? I won't bore you with going into typos etc as it took nothing from the story. If I was to put my critical head on I would advise you bring more ... view book

You say you have written for 30 years and that is clear with your writing which in itself is flawless. Your faith is conveyed in your words and you express it poignantly. Well done and all the very best. Jess view book
