Hey Andy - I've spent most of the last week on holiday on the Isle of Skye, during which I've also managed to read all of the Armageddon's Song series! I've really enjoyed the military aspects (although I feel we're a little differently ...

A few million avid 'Romance' genre readers may possibly challenge you on that one, Phoenix

<r> Thanks Phoenix,<br/>

I am unsure as to whether CrackSabbath is referring to my 'Armageddon's Song' series of books or Harvey's 'Black Effect'. I certainly have no Americans using British terms and phrases apart from one character who is trying to impress a female sergeant in the REME by ...

<r> As I state in the foreword of volume 1 of Armageddon's Song,'Stand-To', that I know jack-all about naval warfare, but I do a laymans description and all but volume 4 have a naval element (Volume 4 is all about the final land battle for Europe).<br/>
Here is an example from the Wiki site of some ...

In a week I should have the re-edit and a few maps in there, all to be submitted to Kindle with a request for it to be a free downloaded upgrade.

<r> I am afraid that the place names may be real but the terrain was in my head for a large chunk of the series. <br/>
<br/>
With parts of the books, in Crossing the Rubicon, such as Moruya, and the Macquarie Pass, in New South Wales, Australia, I had Google Earth up on the screen, flipping ...

<r> I am very glad you are enjoying it. The answer to the puzzle is that my brain was suffering through decades of neglect. I did not finish school but joined the British Army as a boy soldier at 15 and until 2004 my jobs were all practical and outdoors, with not a great deal of creative writing ...

<t> Volume 1 and 2 are both chunky sized books and neither of them are my best work, although I wrote them in the belief my grammar and punctuation were perfect. Nick Gill explained the error of my ways and both books need to be re-edited now that the series is done. The problem there though is that ...

<t> I emerged from my cave on Monday, with three months growth of beard. 2yr old son ran and hid, wife had the suitcases packed until she saw volume 4 'The Longest Night' had gone to #1 Bestseller in the UK on Kindle for Alternative History, and Volume 5, 'Crossing the Rubicon' ,the final book in ...

A quick question for any Americans (and Geordies) who read this.<br/>

Back in the 1970s when I was in the mortar platoon of 2CG (2nd Bn Coldstream Guards) I had occasion to attempt to chat up a young lady who hailed from over your way, and I struck out ...

My main problem is trying to crack the file size and retain quality but reduce the maps byte size. It pushes up the price of the paperbacks and I would prefer to keep them low (less is more, right?)The printers take 90% of the royalties as it is.<br/>

I am but a humble amateur, so I am pretty impressed by these maps you guys create.

I am very impressed W1II14m. My latest map is far more basic and took over twelve hours to create. How about yours?

<r> As I have been writing about some imaginary geographic feature called The Vormundberg I thought I had better at least try and put some flesh on the bones...<br/>

49K words down, so perhaps another 110K before the final book is finished.<br/>

My apology zakblood. These are just maps for a book. I have edited my post accordingly. Sorry for the inconvenience!
