Guest Author: Anne Barwell

Today I get to welcome back a long time friend. Anne Barwell and I have known each other for years. A librarian with a library system in New Zealand, Anne made it possible for my Champion of the Gods series to be available in her library system. Anne is here today to talk about Slow Dreaming which re-released after her publisher returned to her the rights to her books. Welcome back to the World of Make Believe, Anne! Slow Dreaming Thanks for hosting me today. Slow Dreaming is a story close to my heart for several reasons.  Firstly it’s set in Petone, where I grew up.  I’ve sat on the same wall along the waterfront that Jason and Sean do, …

Guest Post—Shadowboxing; by Anne Barwell

Knights and Pawns Thanks for hosting me today. The line between hero and villain is not always as clear as one would think. As a writer I find it much more interesting to write villains who are convinced they’re doing the right thing. In their mind they are the hero fighting for a cause they believe in. In Shadowboxing—book 1 of my WWII Echoes Rising series—there are several men and a woman who have various ways of justifying their actions. The title for this blog post comes from a recurring chess theme within the story, and the fact that several of the characters enjoy the game, both on the board, and in reality. SS Standartenführer Karl Holm, the main antagonist …

Please welcome, Anne Barwell to the Land of Make Believe today. Anne comes to visit from New Zealand and is here to talk about her newest release, Family and Reflection.  Another Perspective Thanks, Andrew, for hosting me. Family and Reflection, book 3 of The Sleepless City—the urban fantasy series which is a joint project between myself and Elizabeth Noble—reintroduces a character from book 1, Shades of Sepia. Ange Duncan, Ben’s friend from New Zealand, visits Flint, Ohio, and stays with the guys at Boggs’s Castle. Why bring her into this book when it is Lucas and Declan’s story? There are a couple of reasons for it. Firstly she’s a strong female character and I like those in my MM stories. It’s …

New Releases: Monday June 24, 2013

All authors face the same daunting task – how to get their book noticed. In an effort to help some of my fellow authors, every Monday I’m going to post some of the numerous new books that have been released. For the most part these will be M/M Fiction with a heavy bias on Romance. That will probably evolve over time, but for now that’s were it is. I’ve not read everything that is listed, though I’ve probably read or will read many. Which means inclusion on the list isn’t an endorsement or suggestion. You should read the blurbs provided to see if you’re interested. I’ll post reviews to books I recommend under the ‘Books I Reviewed’ tab. This is …
