Welcome to my February Newsletter.
Things have been a bit hectic over the last few weeks as we completed and launched my new website, by professional website designers Bookswarm. (https://www.bookswarm.co.uk). My thanks to Simon and his team for his work. One thing that I managed to obtain was a new website URL without the dash in the middle. So you’ll now find me at https://stephencollier.com. Although the old site is forwarded to the new site for a while and my emails will retain the dash for now, until I can get to change it with all my other website access!
Readers House Magazine.
I’ve also had the good fortune to be interviewed by the Readers House Magazine. They have done a feature on my work as both a copper and a crime writer. It is available to read HERE. Hopefully it will put me in the limelight for a while and sell some books! Please have a read and feedback what you think – nicely please!
In a Field of Bones ( Jordan & Kingsfield 3)
The writing of this tome has stalled for a bit. I wouldn’t call it writers block, but more of a decision making break. I said in my last email that I did not really have any idea as to the endgame of the book. But I can now report that has been resolved and it’s gonna be a doozy!
Blind Murder – The Movie
The screenplay for Blind Murder has now been completed and it’s ready to farm out to any producers who want to read it and option it for production. I have also become a member of the International Screenwriters Association (ISA) so I am able to keep and eye on what going on in the world of films in production.
Coppers Coach Podcasts
I am busy working on the script for my first podcast. It will be about fifteen to twenty minutes in length and its aim is to talk about writing crime fiction, a bit of true crime and police procedures. So I would like to ask my readers if there is any subject that you want me to put into a podcast. If so please contact me.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“No, I am not at all cynical, I have merely got experience, which, however, is very much the same thing.”
