    The paperback won’t be far behind, and I’ll keep you posted on the audio books. The incredibly talented Kim Bretton, an actress whose portfolio includes the West End and Broadway as well as work for the BBC has signed to do the first three End of Everything audio books, and I couldn’t be happier. Kim’s audition blew me away. She immediately brought the characters to life and I can’t wait to hear the finished product.

    If you love Christian Bentulan’s designs for the covers of Book 1 and Book 2 as much as I do, then why not pop across to the online store and get your very own The End of Everything t-shirt?

    It’s been four weeks since the first book in the series came out and it’s still hovering near the top of certain Amazon charts. It was the fastest selling book I’ve ever released, and Book 2 has more than doubled my record for pre-orders which is incredibly encouraging. All being well, Book 3 will be released on 31st May and book 4 later in the year.

    Take care and happy reading,

    Chris

  2. A little update…
    So…Friday sees the launch of The End of Everything Book 2. This morning I was working on the second draft of The End of Everything Book 3, and now I’m heading back to Safe Haven to continue Book 5. I keep staring across the room to see the completed manuscript of the first book in another new series that will come out in July. I can hear it goading me, telling me to throw caution to the wind and release it earlier, but no, it is part of a longer term plan. (You read it here first, for once in my life, I have a plan).
    Things have been and will continue to be hectic over the next few months, and by the end of the year I will have over fifteen books to my name. As I read that back, it seems a bit surreal, but there we go.
    Since the launch of The End of Everything we’ve had a lot of people joining the newsletter, and it’s great to see so many new faces alongside all my old friends.

  3. The End of Everything has just gone live on Amazon. I am excited, proud and nervous all at the same time. Book two which is already available for pre-order will be out on 26th April, and book three will be released in May. I love the story, I love the characters, and I really hope everybody else does too. There will not be too long to wait before the next Safe Haven adventure, and later on in the year there will be yet another new series.

  4. So, it’s two days before the launch of The End of Everything, and the butterflies in my stomach are flapping much more than usual. Eight weeks ago I left full-time employment to become an author, and although Safe Haven is popular and its following keeps growing every day, I have no right to expect people to read my work, I have to earn it.

    I hope people will read The End of Everything, and even more, I hope they’ll enjoy it. I hope they’ll love the journey to this new place as much as I’ve loved writing it. But I will never take a reader for granted. I will never have the arrogance to rest on my laurels and expect.

    The cover has been sorted, the manuscript has been uploaded, my advertising has been lined up, the newsletter is ready to go out, and the other thousand things that I need to get ready for launch day are ready. Of course, something will go wrong, it always does. I’m human, with a list of faults longer than one of Spiderman’s webs, but when that thing goes wrong, I’ll deal with it. The stuff that I can do something about, I can handle, it’s the stuff I can’t control that makes my palms start sweating.

    As the seconds tick by, and I wait for the book to go live on Amazon, I occupy my time with all sorts. I broke off from the first edit of another manuscript to write this. The End of Everything Book 2, will be out within a month of the first, all being well, that’s probably another reason why my mind’s working overtime. If people don’t like book one, then they’re not going to like book 2, but I’ve already committed to that, and the third one as well. What can I tell you? I’m a gambler.

    The thing is, it’s a gamble worth taking. I don’t write to a plan, I don’t write to market, I write what’s inside me. I go on an emotional journey every time I sit down and start typing. If I don’t invest myself in a story, then why would someone want to waste their precious time reading it? I suppose that’s the big parallel I can draw, and my big hope… The End of Everything Book 1 is the start of a new journey, but one that’s straight from the gut, just like the Safe Haven series. It’s my true hope that people take to it in the same way.

    Well, that’s enough fretting for the time being. We’ll know the verdict soon enough. It’s Time for me to carry out one of my most important duties in life…Daisy needs her walk. (Then it’s back to work…honest).

  5. I’m very excited to announce that the first book in my new series, The End of Everything will be launched on 29th March. 

    We have a lot planned for the release. The E-book will be priced at just £0.99 for the Friday, Saturday and Sunday of that weekend. There will be competitions across in the Facebook fan club, as well as across here.
