  • A Quickie

    Let’s see how many people that title brings in! I haven’t posted for a while, so I thought I would make a quick one to update everyone. Shadow of the Wraith is now sitting on the shelves of both Eason in Derry and Waterstones in Coleraine (both Northern Ireland). Although…

  • Meet Juni

    This is Juni: She does not like long walks on beaches, but she does like romantic candlelight dinners, because it’s that much easier to vanish into the shadows. She also likes long, sharp knives. This portrait comes from the scene in Shadow of the Wraith, where Travis Archer goes to…

  • Updates and Peanuts

    Disclaimer: There are no peanuts involved in this post. I can’t think of much to write about, so I’ll just update y’all – to be momentarily American – on stuff and whatnot. First off, I am in Underground Book Review’s Self-Published Author Awards, and I joined late, so I have…

  • Kira…again

    Kira is now available on Amazon and Smashwords, for just 99c/75p! Kira is a steampunk short story/novella of just over 13,000 words. Kira’s town has so far survived the destruction wrought by the Government on so many others. But for how much longer? In the middle of a blistering desert,…

  • Kira

    Kira is the 23-year-old title character who takes us through twenty four hours of her life in my new steampunk short story. She lost her home and her family fifteen years ago to a brutal organisation known as the Government, and now etches out a meagre existence in another small…

  • Paperback

    I decided ages ago that I was going to bring out a paperback version of Shadow of the Wraith, but I decided I’d wait and bring it out at the same time as book two. Then, a month ago I decided I might as well just do it straight away.…

  • 60% Celebratory Discount

    Well, I have now published Shadow of the Wraith on Smashwords (here). It hasn’t gone entirely smoothly, as I left out the simple words ‘Smashwords Edition’, meaning that it can’t yet be sent to places like B&N and Apple, etc. And because I’m not at home for a while, I’m…

  • Free For The Last Time

    Shadow of the Wraith is free again today, tomorrow and Monday. It will be the last time it’s free, as I won’t be enrolling in Select for a second time. So get it now! Or…wait and buy it later. I don’t mind. ‘Harrison expertly throws curve balls at the reader…’…

  • America’s Stealing Your Money!!

    Well…the IRS is stealing 30% of your royalties if you’re a non-American self-published author selling books anywhere they deem to be ‘America’. But the title got your attention! Unfortunately, the American government forces Amazon.com, for example, to withhold 30% of any royalties made there for tax. Yes, even though you…

  • It…Ends!

    Like the end of the world, come December. But with less violence, looting and I told you so’s. The final stop on the tour is Tea and Text. I admit, I was a little concerned about today’s review, as it was the only one that I hadn’t seen ahead of…
