I am so thrilled to announce that, less than a year since I wrote the original book, Flavours of Thought is now in its Second Edition.
The second edition of course includes all the ancient wisdom in the same contemporary context as the first but now there are some added juicy bits such as:
- Seven brand new [...]

Before you get too excited, this is not me but a US-based author called John Locke.
He’s very cleverly written a book that described how he did it which itself I suspect will sell another million in less than that time.
I’ve just downloaded it for my iPad and it’s brilliant – brilliantly simple and brilliantly easy to [...]

It’s simply never a better time to be an author. You can go from edited manuscript to publishing it globally as an ebook within a couple of days and in print within just a few days.
My guest this week on the Barefoot Book show was Joel Friedlander who has written an amazing book called A Self [...]

If I was writing this article just five years ago, when asked what an ebook is, I would probably have said a PDF. Where PDF is an acronym for Portable Document Format which, unlike say an Word document, is read-only and retains all the source formatting and layout.
Nowadays, with the increasing ubiquity of ereaders, it might [...]

I’m thrilled to have been able to help new author Keith Churchouse publish his second book this year on the Amazon Kindle – and via the Kindle app, on the iPhone and iPad too.
Addicted to Wedding Cake is a user manual of how to get divorced in the most painless way possible. Keith’s been there, got [...]

Well I never thought I’d ever buy Knitting for Dummies. But I just got a copy via the Amazon Kindle Store to read, or is that to watch, on my iPad.
So am I taking up crocheting books or, as fabulous author’s coach @ledasammarco suggested on Twitter, knitting light bulbs?
No, I am just checking out how embedded [...]

If one of your books sells in a book shop, as an author, you are likely to get less than 10% of the selling price.
This is not a gripe but a fact, as other people in the chain need to be duly recompensed for their part in getting the book on the shelf.
With the introduction of [...]
 Creativity
By thebookwright, on May 29th, 2010
It’s arrived at last and it was definitely worth the wait. My decision not to buy one of the excellent ereaders like the Kindle or the Cool-er has proved to be right. My e-Writer has arrived in the form of an iPad.
From a creative writer’s perspective, just being able to read on the go is less [...]
 iPhone & iPad
By thebookwright, on April 12th, 2010
As I mentioned in my earlier blog – Do iPad or Do I Kindle? – the iPad delivers something very specific for authors that ereaders don’t…
- quite simply, it’s the ability to write.
Will I be getting one? You bet!
Will I wait a while? Yes too as I specifically want it do act as my mobile writing [...]
