Downloads of my book-Undercover Soldier-Part One

My book, Undercover Soldier, Part One, has been downloaded one thousand times on free e book net. The book was doing very well on ebookmall.com. I don't know what has happened to that company. I am going to relaunch Undercover Soldier very soon. All I think it needs is a good book cover.

About Undercover Soldier-An Interview

Again my friend Witty Brown decided to interview me as to my reasons for writing Undercover Soldier. WB: Why did you write Undercover Solder? AM: I knew I could write a full length novel. I had written several short stories before. WB: Is Undercover Soldier your first novel? AM: It was my first novel. My late sister in law, Margaret Haughton, said that it had too many killings. I rewrote it, taking out most of the bloodletting. The book has been edited twice. WB: Who helped you edit the book? AM: There was a lady, I can't remember her name now. It was she who suggested that I change the name of the book from Operation Wareika. The other editor I used was an American gentleman. I also used another American gentleman for the formatting and book cover. I don't think I've recouped what I have spent on this book. WB: Why did you choose Undercover Soldier? AM: The main character in the book was working undercover and he was a member of the armed forces WB: Have you made

About Uptown Lovers-An Interview

My friend Witty Brown decided to interview me about my reasons for writing Uptown Lovers. WB: Why did you write Uptown Lovers AM: It was a story where Morgana and Bev were engaged to their boyfriends. These two guys, Rick and Brad would arrive from abroad and take them away from their boyfriends. WB: Did you enjoy writing it? AM: It was very challenging. I still believe that it's a great book. The book is divided into Book 1 & and 2.Both have been downloaded over 300 times on free e book net. WB: Do you believe that you would have met more success had you book been published in the USA or Britain? AM: I believe so and the fact that I'm not a very well known writer or academic. Also due to the fact that my book was not professionally proof read, edited, formatted or had a book cover. It's very difficult for you to get these things done without the financing in place. WB: How do you see your future as a writer? AM: I have several projects planned. I might just do

The Downtown Massive-Some interesting Characters

Read my book, The Downtown Massive and meet some interesting characters. You'll get to meet the reformed gunmen, Errol Douse, Tad and Sam. Douse is being tempted to take up the gun again. Sam and Tad migrated to other countries on false passports. Young aspiring Don, Bobby Deacon, feels betrayed by the old Don, Shadow. Shadow had promised to help him in his war with a bigger Don, Coltrane, but pulled out his forces at the last minute leaving him exposed on several fronts. Four of his fighters are killed and they have to flee to the rural areas. After Douse foils the robbery of a taxi in which he was a passenger, gunmen invade his yard, killing his brother in law. He is tempted to go for his gun and even moreso when a month later on the same men shoot up his taxi and kill a fellow taxi operator.
