The good news and the bad…
There hasn’t been a week since I self-published the first three books in The Ballad of Sir Benfro when someone hasn’t contacted my through email, Twitter, Facebook or comments here asking when book four, The Broken World, is coming out.

I am proud to count myself amongst them. As well as being World […]
