Since I started writing and publishing my paranormal Kindle books on Amazon three years ago, all of which I am now producing in paperback, I feel really proud of my achievement as an author. It really has been a fantastic journey, and I get a real buzz out of seeing my books in print and reading my readers' feedback. I am especially proud of my book HAMMER HORROR REMEMBERED, the paperback version of which I have just received from Amazon Createspace. Having always been a big fan of Hammer horror movies, I thought I would do a book as my own personal homage to a studio that has given me much pleasure over the years. The book I am currently working on is a book on the history of UK talent shows. I would recommend anybody who has a keen interest in books and writing to take up the pen themselves. It really is a highly rewarding and fulfilling occupation. Wirral Writer Wirral Writer www.wirralwriter.co.uk

Can't say anything else apart from 'brilliant'!. Well done and yes, you should be proud of your achievements. My gosh, that's a surprise for everyone on Wiki !!
Congratulations! I believe one of the hardest parts is finding a publisher , once you have written the book ?

I'd like to say well done as well. I've always loved creative writing and used to be in a writing group many years ago. I think that the feeling you get when you are first published must be wonderful. I have sent short stories off to magazines in the past but no joy. Not good with technology it all baffles me so would not be able even if I had the talent you've got to achieve your success. It's great to hear you are doing so well and keep it up you could well be no 1 bestseller one day.
