'It's getting much harder to be published the traditional way.' Author @malhavardwriter.bsky.social joins me on Northern Voices to talk about why his foray into traditional publishing made him decide to do it himself. on.soundcloud.com/LH2Wo0rK1V0I...

A black and white photo of Malcolm from the neck up. He has short hair and is looking just left of the camera and smiling slightly. He is wearing a dark polo shirt and jacket. Behind him is an out of focus bookshelf.

The Tyne Bridge is pictured in the centre of the frame over a still, reflective River Tyne in Newcastle, UK. Either side of the bridge are buildings with a warmer glow as the sun rises. The words Northern Voices in white lettering feature in the bottom centre of the image.

Thought I'd better get a new banner. I might need a second one to fit the @northodoxpress.bsky.social books on too!

First draft done. Now for the editing... For context, Lena, Elena is a 30k word novella telling the story of how my character, Elena, from the Lisbon books first escaped Nazi-era Berlin then, in 1940, fled the Blitzkrieg in France - only to find other dangers on the road...

For as long as Alice can remember, she has trailed after Agnes ears open and mind eager to learn.... Magpie Moon is a tale of mothers and daughters, of medicine and magic, a crisp walk through the dark days of girlhood where sisters collude and the kind may turn cruel. @bookbound2019.bsky.social

So, that's 772 Kindle downloads in 24 hours including 750 in the States, a market I'd love to crack properly. Well, I hope my 750 new US readers I didn't have yesterday like my work...

We recently passed a 6 month anniversary of John Storey's A Drowning Man: A Manchester Noir! An exquisitely written mystery novel, bumbling PI Tom is hired to find a missing student in the wake of his mother's death. Poetic and tragic, it's a must read! www.northodox.co.uk/product-page...
