Indie author Q&A with @authorjoshmillican.bsky.social

All those years in medical school to be reduced to this. Riding to a deserted farmhouse in the dead of night, with two wackos in a blacked out SUV to perform elective surgery in a bomb shelter. - Preppers. #writing.

Been stuck on this section of the book for a while. Reading Crichton has unlocked it. I’m going back to reintroduce a side character as a segue into the madness. When things are feeling stale, a fresh perspective is needed…

Five things you will probably find in most of my books: 1. The first page gets you right into the action. 2. Strong, three dimensional female characters. 3. Short chapters, kinetic pacing. 4. Claustrophobic tension. 5. A kick-ass concept. How about you?

Got my copy, grab yours before it’s too late!

Reading Jurassic Park for the first time (I know, I know) and the way Crichton takes the time to introduce characters he kills off is so inspiring…

It’s @radardeboard.bsky.social birthday so go and buy his book.

After hitting send on a sub call, I thought I’d write a post about deadlines…

New indie writer Q&A dropped…

That old TV trick of making the most famous guest star the killer is really spoiling the new series of Death Valley…

Happy release day to @craigwallwork.bsky.social Got my copy…

Thanks to the good people at Godless, Get Free is now back out on ebook! Only $1.29 (their lowest price) godless.com/products/get...

This is a great example of the old adage ‘if you don’t like something, you don’t really have to comment.’ Just scroll on. Especially if you’re not part of the conversation; it’s just a few likeminded writers having a natter. And, yes, I’m aware of the irony…😬

So, remember how the publisher of Get Free closed down and I found another press to put it out? Well, they just closed… …what can I say, Get Free finally got free!

Funny how the ads never buffer…

This week’s guest going behind the screams is Briana N Cox…
