My second author newsletter is out this week. If interested please subscribe on www.patricklarsimont.com
This month, I’m musing about ‘The Few’ with a free short story and some portraits that may be of interest.
In the meantime, here’s one of Jox McNabb created by my daughter.

I saw this the other day and it struck a chord. I've been fortunate and had a few readers say nice things about my stories, so as a bit of mid-week encouragement to toiling writers and authors, just keep going. Those who appreciate your words are out there.

My first author newsletter went out today. It talks about what I've been up to, what's in the pipeline and incudes a FREE short story, appropriate around VJ Day, which was long listed for the HWA / DD Shorty story comp in 2022. If you'd like to sign up, please do so at www.patricklarsimont.com

It's heartening when you debut novel has been out for a bit, but new readers are discovering it and saying nice things. Cheers an author up on a Sunday morning when in the editing trenches. Be a pal and leave a review. Cheers.

I was pleased to be interviewed by Reader's House magazine. Here is the article providing some detail of the genesis of Jox McNabb's and my writing. I hope it is of interest.

On Memorial Day remembering some of the real people that have been part of Jox McNabb's story. A roll call of heroes irrespective of their nation: Ferriss, Brotchie, Marseille, Falls and Musolesi.
Rest easy and not forgotten.

It's apparently the anniversary of THE RAIDERS AND THE CROSS on audiobook, so my publishers are offering it cheap.

Most authors will know how blue you feel when one of your 'babies' is stalling. That's when carefully considered reviews can really lift the spirits. This is a five star GR review from a US reader. She gets me.

It’s disappointing when a book doesn’t do as well as its siblings. My ghost story has had some great reviews, so I’d encourage Jox McNabb readers to give it a try. At less than a £/$ on Kindle, that’s a lot of reward for very little risk.
