    Who needs original? My story involves Atlantis, dinosaurs, mythology, good guys, bad guys, inbetween guys, moonbases. Original? I dunno but it's good fun to write and that's the important thing! Wonder what the film'd be like with all that stuff in it!

    Thanks very much. I hadn't realised that the cover art was appreciated so much but you're the third person over the last couple of days to mention it.

    Cover Art sells books.... almost sad, as the words are slightly more important but a good cover sells.

    Period.

    Nice work mate...good luck

    Had some good news today in that a local book shop wants to do a formal launch three weeks tomorrow... I'm in a bit of a tizz because I've so much to do now! Can't complain though!
