Rules for life

Posted on by adamjoneswrites

Hello everyone, hope you are all well. I have just finished the first draft of the third instalment of the Little Whippendon series so I thought I would share the first page with you. Have I missed any off the list? I would love to hear from you:

 

Moshesh’s rules for modern life

(vis-à-vis how to act in drinking establishments)

1. Though shall always get your round in

2. Though shalt not queue.

3. Though shall lean on the bar with money in hand; eye contact means you are ready to order

4. Though shall remember which coin belongs to which player in the queue on the side of a pool table

5. Though shall accept that peanuts and crisps are valid as main meals when offered

6. Though shall not, under any circumstance, sit on a table with a group of people you don’t know.

7. Children should be kept out, or at least kept quiet

8. Thou shalt not order coffee.

9. Mineral water is never the right answer

10. Though shall smoke when in the snug, regardless of law or popular fashion.

The teaser has become more formal – I’m proud to announce the final cover design for The Vampire Strikes Back, the keenly (perhaps) awaited follow up to Morning of The Waking Dead. My full length debut contains vampires, vicars, cross-dressers, gimps and drunks. It will be available on Kindle and Paperback(!) 1st September  2013 and to celebrate, I will be offering it for free kindle download for a limited time (dates to be confirmed). I hope you like it!Image

OK, so I am rubbish, I admit it. It has taken me ages to update the next chapter of The Vampire Strikes Back. Good news is, its done now. You can find it here – https://adamjoneswrites.wordpress.com/the-vampire-strikes-back/the-vampire-strikes-back-chapter-4/ Another chapter will follow at the weekend, I promise.

Also, I wrote a story for a competition recently, but thought it was only fair to share it with you lovely people. Its a short thriller about art, inspiration and love so if you are after something more serious than anrgy old women and vampirse, you can read it here – https://adamjoneswrites.wordpress.com/stories1/evening-of-the-muse/

And finally, This weekend sees the publication of Morning of the Waking Dead on the Kindle. Its been revised and has a pretty cover (see below)!

So lots of news and more excitement to follow over the next few days, hope you are all spiffingImage

Howdy all, just a quick update on whats going on at AdamJonesWrites HQ, i.e. my living room.

Firstly, thank you all for the amazing feedback on Morning of the Waking dead, it means a lot to me. If you haven’t read it yet, and you like the ideas of comic but heartwarming zombies in middle England, then you can check it our here

On the other hand, if vampires and the Women’s Institute are more your thing, then you may like the first two chapters of The Vampire Strikes back which is here

I’m currently writing the third chapter of TVSB and another little short. Should hopefully be posting these in the next few days. As always comments, messages follows and favourites are always welcome. 

 

Toodle pip for now

 

The Vampire Strikes Back is underway

Posted on by adamjoneswrites

Hello hello, as promised, I have begun to blog my next story. I’m using the word story for pretty much everything as the categorisation of short, novella, novel etc. is tricky when you don’t know how long something will be. Also, it’s largely meaningless as the main thing is the storytelling in my humble opinion. Anyway, the first chapter of the new story, which I am calling The Vampire Strikes Back (largely because it had to have a name of some sort and I quite like Star Wars) is now up and running. You can find it at the following link if you are so inclined. https://adamjoneswrites.wordpress.com/the-vampire-strikes-back/the-vampire-strikes-back-chapter-one/
