Shining Ones Go Shiny!

Posted on April 20, 2017September 2, 2018 by Richard

Monday saw the release of my first book in some time, and my first ever co-authored publication. Yeah, I should have posted something then but the day-job was kicking my backside. So, better late than never. Shining Ones features members of the Ogmios Directive, an off-the-books special ops team who solve messy problems at home and abroad that the British government would rather not have to be associated with. Way back in 2014, Steven Savile, author of the immensely successful thriller...

A Whirlwind Launch Week (updated)!

Posted on December 15, 2014April 7, 2015 by Richard

What a week it's been! Two titles came out on the same day (December 9th) and behaved in very different ways. One was Fantasy For Good, a new anthology featuring a ton of amazing talent, with all proceeds going to the Colon Cancer Alliance. The other was my debut novel, The Patchwork House, a haunted house story with a time travel infusion.Let's hold on Fantasy For Good for a moment. Yes I'm talking about my own novel first, in a blatant attempt to publicize it to anyone coming here for info abo...

A plethora of newsy things!

So much time and so little news! I may have got that backwards. Errr... The Patchwork House It's real! It exists... At least for pre-order. Reserve your copy now before the internet runs out of data. It could happen! Oh and take a look at the cover in all its glory. Very pleased with how this turned out. Getting the right cover for this book was quite a task, and I have Justin Terrell of Azarath Designs to thank for this haunting image. Yummy. Here's the book description... How do y...

News, reviews and birthday blues…

Posted on July 27, 2012July 27, 2012 by Richard

Lots to catch up on. Firstly, a bittersweet day this past Wednesday. This site turned one year old and I tried to think of a fitting way to celebrate. Unfortunately, the day job intervened and I didn't have time, which is more or less the story of my life for the past eight months. Ho hum. So happy birthday, website and I'm sorry the best I could come up with was a balloon image. You've done pretty well over the last year, and I hope you last for many more. (more…)

An incredible week!

So World's Collider was published on July 10th and sold pretty well out of the gate, but then something happened on Thursday morning (July 19th) that changed everything. This e-mail was sent to everyone in the UK who had previously bought one of Aaron Rosenberg's books from Amazon. So basically, Amazon UK saw that World's Collider featured Aaron, assumed this was his latest book (which it only sort of is) and publicized it to all his previous customers. Now Aaron has sold quite a lot o...
