So far my work has been short stories with a nod to the thriller/suspense genre.

I am more than happy to be interviewed by any kind bloggers. My answers will be witty, funny and with no boring pretentious nonsense either.

Not sure about modesty though.

Hi!

I love giving interviews, the questions are always such fun! Guest posts are interesting as well, I've only done one of those so far, but it's a learning curve.

I write YA and so far I've completed three novels, all of which are very different:


Over the Mountain - Self harm and suicide.


Taken - Thriller where a teen discovers he was abducted as a very small child.


American Girl - Historical Fiction about Japanese-American internment in World War Two.

My latest book - Eight Mile Island - is undergoing a second draft at the minute, and should be finished soon (I hope!) - that's a thriller / horror story about cloning.

If anyone's interested, I'm online at:

Just read Lucinda's review. Wow! congratulations to both of you, Michael for writing book worthy of such a review and to Lucinda for writing a review that makes the time and thought necessary for an informative review apparent.

Thank you Sadie and thank you also Lucinda.

I have actually re-read Lucinda's review about three or four times now...!

Hi Lucinda

What a wonderfully generous offer and I would love to take you up on it.
My novel, Precious Moon, is about two young Brits who find themselves irresistably drawn to living in the same remote Andean village in Argentina, when the Falklands War breaks out. Despite their government's advice to leave they decide to stay in Argentina, which is at the same time being torn apart by its own Dirty War, as innocent civilians mysteriously disappear.
The story explores themes of displacement, escape, exile, loss and recovery.

If you would be interested in reading and reviewing Precious Moon please could you email me your preferred method to receive the e-book?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks!

Hi Lucinda, its fabulous that you are writing your own novel! When I started writing years ago the only consistent advice out there was 'if you want to be a writer, be a reader', so you're well on your way to being a great writer.

Again, thank you for all you're doing for us!!

I am always up for being interviewed, but don't think I've published enough to merit it yet.

Reviews are always very welcome indeed!

Dear Lucinda, I actually have tears in my eyes reading your review of Precious Moon. I feel quite giddy, as though you understood everything I wanted to achieve with my writing, and so honoured that the story meant so much to you.
A heartfelt thank you for reading Precious Moon, and for leaving such a wonderful review.
I'm so pleased we're 'Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ friends' now - I will certainly follow your reviews and your writing with interest!

Review requests are also welcome. :)

Hi, everyone! I'd like to introduce myself and my epic fantasy novel, "In a Wolf's Eyes". I'm A. Katie Rose, but just shorten it to Katie. I'd love people to read and review it, its getting some awesome reviews so far! Just look at Michael's review on Dragon's Lair Books/blogspot. Here, I've included a brief synopsis:

“In a Wolf’s Eyes� is the first of a series of epic fantasy novels set in a medieval-type world. It’s an adventure story told from the alternating points of view of the hero, Raine “The Wolf� and Princess Ly’Tana. Raine, an escaped gladiator, and Ly’Tana, a bride running away from her marriage to the murdering High King find a common bond and join forces. With Rygel, a wizard addicted to a seductive drug, Ly’Tana’s cousin Kel’Ratan, and Ly’Tana’s warriors, must first free Ly’Tana’s griffin bodyguard from the High King’s clutches. They succeed in their endeavor, yet Raine and Ly’Tana are separated from the others and escape the city.
However, the High King, nicknamed Brutal, has set on their trail a clan of hunter-assassins called the Shekinah Tongu. Raine is brought down, beaten by the Tongu. The hunters are set to rape Ly’Tana when, in a rage, Raine’s breaks his bonds and saves her from her captors. Beaten down once more, Raine sacrificed himself for Ly’Tana. Free, Ly’Tana flees into the forest. Bar, the griffin, finds her and slays the Tongu who pursue her. Once more among Rygel, Kel’Ratan and her warriors, Ly’Tana is determined to rescue Raine from the Tongu. In the form of hawks, Rygel and Ly’Tana return to the forest, hunting the hunters. With his magic, Rygel blinds the Tongu and begins healing Raine of his grievous injuries. With Bar’s help, Rygel and Ly’Tana get Raine back to Kel’Ratan and the others.
As Ly’Tana and her people plan to depart for her homeland of Kel’Halla, Raine refuses to accompany them. His sister is still in the city and also a slave: he will not leave without her. In disguise, Raine, Ly’Tana, Rygel and Kel’Ratan brave the risk of capture by Brutal and rescue Raine’s sister, Arianne, from her cruel mistress. As they ride away, they are indeed trapped by Brutal and his new wizard ally, Ja’Teel.
The story continues in book two, “To Catch a Wolf.�
“In a Wolf’s Eyes� is a story of life and death, love and hate, honor and betrayal, loyalty and cruelty. The hero and heroine are determined to save not just their own lives and those they love, they fight to prevent their adversary, High King Brutal, from invading their countries. They act out of a fierce love and patriotism to keep their homelands free from the King’s evil greed. An audience can relate to this tale through drug-addiction, humor, modern colloquialisms, personal sacrifice, romance, and the very human lust for power and greed. It’s packed with enough action to keep an audience captivated. It has an appeal for all ages and contains much that everyone watching can relate to. Most fantasy stories these days are of the save the world variety. This is not let’s save the world. Raine and Ly’Tana only want to save their small part of it.

I am available for questions or interviews.I have written a timely e-book called A Pitch For Justice that examines what would happen today if a manager ordered a rookie pitcher to throw a disabling pitch at a batter in retaliation.The ensuing criminal investigation leads to a murder indictment.
Here is a review by Robert D'Angelo of the Tampa Tribune.Posted Apr 15, 2012 by Bob D'Angelo

Updated Apr 15, 2012 at 09:44 PM

Pitching high and tight is a dangerous, yet acceptable part of baseball. Pitchers like Sal Maglie, Don Drysdale and Bob Gibson made their living off chin music, reasoning that fear and intimidation could tip the balance in their favor.

But what if the unthinkable happens and a "purpose pitch" causes a batter's death?

It has happened before. On Aug. 16, 1920, Ray Chapman of the Indians was hit in the head by Yankees pitcher Carl Mays and died the next day from a severe skull fracture. Mays voluntarily turned himself in to the police, and even though he had a reputation as a headhunter, he was quickly exonerated of all blame.

"I've always been haunted by Carl Mays and Ray Chapman," Sarasota-based author Harold Kasselman said.

If that incident happened now in today's litigation-happy society, would criminal charges be filed? Would there be a trial? Would it be prosecuted as manslaughter or as a homicide? And what would be the verdict?

"The verdict would come down to a value judgment as to whether the pitch was worthy of condemnation in a criminal court," Kasselman writes in "A Pitch For Justice," a thought-provoking novel that combines baseball and legal themes. It is available as an e-book for $2.99 on Amazon.com.

Kasselman, 67, is a lifetime Phillies fan who "cried like a baby" when Philadelphia beat the Rays in the 2008 World Series. He came up with the idea for "A Pitch For Justice" while watching a testy game between the Phils and the New York Mets.

"I was like a man possessed," Kasselman said from his Sarasota home. "I'm not a writer, not in a million years.

"I sat down and it all came out."

He wrote his original draft in three months, and then revised it by putting in another subplot just before publication.

Kasselman is no novice to the legal system. For 30 years, he worked for the Camden County (N.J.) prosecutor's office, spending his final eight years as deputy first assistant prosecutor until he retired from the post in October 2004. He then worked in a private practice until retiring in 2010. Since 2005, he and his wife Robin have spent their winters in Sarasota.

"A Pitch For Justice" is the story of Tim Charles, a Sarasota-born pitcher with pinpoint control and even more sharply defined, high moral values. Charles begins the 2015 season in the majors as a rookie with the Philadelphia Phillies. In a key, late-season series against the New York Mets, the 6-foot-6, 210-pounder is thrust into an uncomfortable position by his tough, old-school manager, Buck Sawyer.

The Phillies and Mets have been having a contentious three-game series, with knockdown pitches and spike-flashing slides. Sawyer wants retribution and tells Charles to deliver the message during a Sunday night game that was being televised nationally by ESPN.

Mets sparkplug Kenny Leyton is the victim. He squares to bunt with two runners on base in the sixth inning, but Charles comes inside and hits him in the head with a 95 mph fastball. Leyton apparently froze as the pitch was delivered, and Charles reacts with dismay and tells the umpire that he did not mean to hit the batter.

Leyton is taken to the hospital and later sent home, apparently with nothing more serious than a concussion. But the incident sparks debate in the sports talk show community and poses this question:

Does that intentional beaning, even if it is part of baseball's unwritten code, rise to the level of criminality?

That answer comes swiftly enough, as Leyton's condition deteriorates and he dies from swelling of the brain shortly after returning home. For the first time, the question of prosecution becomes real.

That's where "A Pitch For Justice" takes off. Kasselman uses his legal expertise to take the reader through the grand jury process, with prosecutor Jaime Brooks assuming the lead role. It's a fascinating read, and if you've ever wondered how a grand jury works, this is a good way to find out.

Kasselman introduces some interesting characters, including Brooks, a prosecutor who envisions a career someday as a singer in a piano bar; Theresa Leyton, the widow of the Mets player who pushes the prosecution and contemplates taking matters into her own hands; Barbara Jay, a dismissed grand juror who becomes the romantic interest; and Chris Meyer, a corrupt grand juror who will play an interesting role as the novel steams to its conclusion.

Sawyer is a cantankerous character who cannot believe he is even in court. During one memorable exchange, he opts to "take the Fifth Commandment," to the amusement of the lawyers and the courtroom audience.

"That actually happened in court, but not by a baseball player," Kasselman laughed.

Sawyer reminded me of Dallas Green, who led the Phillies to their first World Series title in 1980, but Kasselman said the character was mostly a composite of managers from the 1930s era.

Kasselman is a lifetime Phillies fan, who idolized pitcher Robin Roberts and saw his first game at Shibe Park in 1951, a doubleheader against the Pirates (the Phils won both games that day -- June 3 -- 11-2 and 8-3).

"I saw Ralph Kiner that day. I loved it. When I saw that green field, I was in heaven," Kasselman said.

While taking his father to a World Series game in 1980 was a big thrill, Kasselman said his biggest baseball thrill was meeting members of the Milwaukee Braves in 1957 at the Warwick Hotel in Philadelphia.

Back to the book. The romantic subplot between Jaime and Barbara is a good diversion from the legal battles in the courtroom, and Kasselman writes it in a sly, winking style. He switches sports metaphors in one passage, writing that "after some heavy-duty breathing on the couch, just shy of the goal posts, Jamie headed back home ..."

I have to admit I had a good laugh out of that line.

"I still fantasize that George Clooney will play Jaime Brooks in the film of the book," Kasselman said.

And who plays the Barbara Jay role?

"Maybe Jennifer Aniston. When I sign over the movie rights, I'll let them worry about it," he laughed.

It's hard not to have sympathy for Charles, who exudes a wholesome, Tim Tebow-like quality. And surprisingly, it is easy not to have sympathy for Theresa Leyton, whose outbursts during the trial and inflammatory comments to the media make the widow a very abrasive character.

"You do come across a true believer and it's understandable," Kasselman said. "Where they are totally inflexible."

So how does the book end? Is there a conviction? Is a legal precedent set?

Sorry, I am taking the Fifth Commandment on that one. You will have to buy the book to find out. The ending might surprise you. Thanks Bob for the review,
