My Novel - Dana Point

If you like reading my blog, please consider supporting me by buying one of my books. My science fiction novel, Dana Point is worth a read if you like a mixture of humour and adventure. 

Here is the link to the book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FP5DLJ1

Steven Adams Traded to Grizzlies

Steven Adams being moved to the Memphis Grizzlies, good or not? I think this is good for Adams. The Pelicans are famous for making the worst trades in the NBA and this is yet another example. Put aside all those draft pick rights, who in their right mind would think the big Lithuanian, Jonas Valanciunas would be the equivalent of Steven Adams and Eric Bledsoe. This has got to be a dumb move by the Pelicans. I've said this before, most recently in relation to that ball-hog Russell Westbrook; there is no way one player can be worth more than multiple very competent players. The Pelicans now look like a bargain basement team.

For Adams, he moves to a better team which last season qualified for the playoffs, while the Pelicans missed out. Adams as he ages will have to learn how to come off the bench and play a role rather than be the starting big. But big he is, and the Grizzlies will appreciate his presence. You can talk about movement on the court and driving lanes all you like, but having a wide body blocking the inside and protecting the rim is the most valuable asset on any team. You start with the block of concrete and build around that, not the other way around.

Oh and my basketball novel is still available, you can buy it from Amazon as a digital or paperback copy:

Third Novel Underway

My readers will be happy to know I'm in the middle of writing my third novel. It's a little bit Sci-Fi, a little bit comedy, tongue in cheek. I will be finishing it up in a couple of months time.

Promotion to start 2017

Through an Amazon promotion I am making my two novels free as a Kindle read on the 1st and 2nd of January 2017. You can download and read an electronic version of these two great reads on those dates.

Physical paperback copies are available from CreateSpace. I have a high conversion rate from Kindle to the physical book, meaning many who begin reading the books on Kindle or on their computer, like the books so much they go and buy them in print.

The Crushing Son is set in the quarrying industry on the Gold Coast, Australia. The title is a play on words; the rival families work crushing rock, one of the sons crushes the father over time, and the oppressive heat crushes the spirit.

>>Click Here for my First Novel<<

Pitched at the young adult reader level, Basketball Obsession is set in the only town in New Zealand where basketball reigns instead of rugby. That town is Nelson, and we follow the fortunes of a team with obvious talent but little cohesion at the start. Pete is the team's power forward and he holds the team together as they advance to nationals and a shot at glory.
