Coming soon. 'Once Upon a Time There Lived'.

It's been well over a year -- interrupted, unfortunately, by illness --  but my new novel Twice Upon a Time There Lived is finished and ready to go. It's with a couple of New Zealand publishers but typically they are very slow to respond. For example, Penguin says to wait up to four months which I think is both ridiculous and disrespectful. However, I've decided that in this case I'll wait as this book deserves the support only a mainstream publisher can give. But if it's eventually rejected, as all my books have been, then I'll publish myself on Amazon/Kindle and sell it in America where I always get great reviews. 

Here's the cover blurb:  

When teenaged Barbara Conwyne learns that cousins who marry risk having children with mental or physical handicaps, she fears she and her beloved cousin William will never be able to marry. The cousins, born only weeks apart, to identical twin mothers, and fathers who were brothers, are biologically closer than most cousins and therefore, believes Barbara, at even greater risk.

Despite intensely and obsessively loving only each other, Barbara’s fears blight the first part of the cousins’ lives as they go their separate ways. Only after twenty unhappy years apart does fate work to bring them together at last to live in the family home in blissful happiness.

Until fate intervenes.
