You Asked For It: Renee Pierce Williams

Indies Unlimited reader Renee Pierce Williams asks: “Who to choose and why? When self-publishing, who do you choose? What is the most cost effective route to take and why? Will they be able to provide hardcover, softcover and e-book formats?”

Mr. Pish for President

Times are hard, and we need a President who is not afraid to make the tough choices and take a stand—or a nap. The ugly truth is that the problem with all the men who have served in the highest office in the land, is that they are people. They lack both focus and flea collars.

On the Radio

A lot of authors become unnecessarily stressed at the prospect of a radio interview. Maybe you hate the sound of your own voice. Maybe you think you’ll be asked a question for which you were not prepared and you’ll stutter and stammer and come off sounding like an idiot.

Sneak Peek: Prickly Scots Part I

Prickly ScotsToday, we feature a sneak peek of S.P. Mount’s comic epic fantasy, Prickly Scots Part I .

A feel good story with all the elements of an epic adventure, Prickly Scots is a richly described escapade with humour beating at the heart of it. Paths cross on individual life journeys as a wonderfully nuanced, largely irascible cast, human and otherwise, become embroiled in a fantastical situation; finding themselves time-travelling between three time periods in Scotland and interacting with supposedly mythical creatures such as the Loch Ness Monster and Bigfoot as a biblical artefact is sought out. The plot pulls the story along in Part II in a butterfly effect, as even the cast themselves change beyond recognition.

Prickly Scots Part I is available through Amazon.com, Amazon UK, Kobo, Smashwords and other online stores.

Here is an excerpt from Prickly Scots Part I : Continue reading “Sneak Peek: Prickly Scots Part I”
