WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU – The Paperback Tour January 2017

Happy New Year! I hope you all enjoyed the festive season and have had an excellent start to 2017.

My week has been busy preparing for the release of the paperback of my third novel, What Doesn’t Kill You, due 9th January.

The novel has been available for a year in digital form, but there’s nothing quite like holding the paperback in your hands. I’m lucky enough to have a few author copies at home. Next week I’ll be guesting on blogs as my book goes on a virtual tour. Please do join me and find out some of the background to What Doesn’t Kill You.

I haven’t gone as far as to print tour tee-shirts, but here’s the programme.

Hoping 2017 is a magnificent year for you.

Take care,

Follow Me, Follow You: Trailers and Teasers Day 1

Follow Me, Follow You: Trailers and Teasers. Day 1

It’s all go in the James household as we gear up for the paperback release of my second Choc Lit novel, Follow Me, Follow You.

I’ve been writing guest posts to accompany the upcoming book tour, putting together a short about Chris and Victoria’s early love affair, sorting out bookmarks, and preparing for the actual book launch itself, to be held in Dorset on the 6th September.

From now until that day, I shall be posting images connected to Follow Me, Follow You – photos used for the trailer, images of inspiration, research pictures – anything that’s contributed to the creating, writing and promotion of the novel.

Today, I’m introducing the trailer to you, as a teaser for the next couple of weeks.

This is the first time I’ve filmed a trailer. Over the last few months, I’ve taken several trips to Chesil Beach and captured many images of the area on my camera. Thanks to a wonderful app called Waterlogue, I was able to turn those photos into water colour paintings.

This trailer is the result of many hours of me having fun with nature and technology. You won’t need 3D glasses to view, and it’s probably too short a film for you to make and enjoy a bucket of popcorn, but if you have your cup of tea and a Hobnob to hand, settle back and find out a little more about Victoria Noble and Chris Frampton.
