Hello fellow Junkies,

So it is official: Half Life will be the third and last book in the Helheim wolf series. With dwindling pack numbers, I've realised that I don't have enough to sustain them. This third book will (hopefully) tie together all the loose ends that the first two books may have left. I think I've got all the bases covered, but what I'd really like to know is what questions all you have that you would like answered. Plus, are there any characters out there that you would like to know their full story?

 Sabel is the main character in this book. Revenge is fresh in his mind, and he's determined to find the person responsible for the death of his best friend. The main plot has been planned, and I've added a few more chapters leaving me with another 5 to write before it's the end of the Helheim pack.

Procrastination has dug in its dirty claws recently leaving me uninspired and unwilling to even sit down in front of my laptop to write. That's probably a good thing though. I can just image spending hours writing absolute drivel only to have to delete it the next time inspiration hits. Ho hum...

Hello fellow Junkies,
Just a quick update on Indi and all the gang. I am currently writing the third book in the series. I still have to decide whether this will be the final book, or second last.

New characters are introduced, and older ones are explored further-Vaile's boss being one of them. We will find out about Sabel's dark past as well as the females of the Helheim pack and the roles they play.

As it stands, I have another 3 chapters to write in order to end the story of Half Life, but one or two of those chapters is going to be intense-epic battle scenes which take a little more brain power to write.

Decisions also have to be made about Brax and his involvement with Rhett and Indi. Mmm, I can smell a love triangle *rubs hands together gleefully*.

The other fun part about writing a book is choosing the cover art. I think I have narrowed down the one I want from a selection of 5 or 6, but I will know for sure once I've finished with the final edit. Things can always change.

I hope I've teased you sufficiently, leaving you wanting more of the Helheim wolves.

Hello fellow Junkies,

Half Truths, the second book in the Half Blood series, has been available on Amazon.com for almost three weeks. Sales have been good, but they could always be better. So, if you have read Half Truths and you like like it, I would love to hear from you. Post a review on Amazon.com and tell everyone what you thought. I'm anxious to know how the second book is being received!

Hello fellow Junkies,
Just a little update on the promotion I had running with "Half Blood" for 72 hours last month. In total, I had 4,086 downloads of the book which, I think, was a great success. For the remainder of the month, I had 100 more sales. It was a fantastic response to Half Blood, and if anyone is considering using the promotion tool via Amazon.com to promote their book(s), I would highly recommend it.

Also, if anyone out there has read "Half Blood" and liked/loved it, I would love it if a review was posted. The more reviews I have, the more likely it is that someone else will decide to read it too.
