Phantasms in the Infirmary
A compendium of ghoulish encounters
If you like to be scared, read this
Guaranteed to spook you to the limit... You will never feel alone in a hospital
Working full time in the busy health service is very tiring but rewarding.
Assessing and treating the sick, management of the busy teams under my wing, paper work... Mountains of it....
Having time to write is not easy.
There are always more important things to take priority.
I have taken a week off to catch up on writing and finishing off some stuff.
However, the other stuff has taken top priority, especially as one of them was becoming a grandad!!!
March 2015 is when we meet the next generation.
We are so excited at becoming grandparents, such a joy and so wonderful for our son and daughter in law... And us of course!
Please see the scan of our grandchild...
I will be getting back on track soon...
Phobic Wars
My second book is a work of fiction that addresses themes that are meaningful and original. Bugs are far from revered and mostly detested.
Cockroaches are the theme in this story.
It is based on 2 separate lives/Stories that clash in their joint mission of irony.
Meet the characters, embracing their different backgrounds with the difficulties in working towards their mystical mission.
Dystopia if they don't succeed but do they.
Read it and enjoy Phobic Wars
Available on paperback or Kindle ebook
The pleasure of getting a book published is exhilarating.
Seeing ones book in print is especially so.
The smell of the paper, flicking through the pages and recognition of ones efforts is wonderful.
Seeing your name on the cover, especially if you have had some input into its design or like with Legally Lucky, modeled for the cover....
Our eldest son, Paul, a designer by trade, told me to lay down on our kitchen floor after taking £35.00 (all I had) out of my wallet, throwing it on the floor then taking photos of me and the money to construct the end product. Getting hold of handcuffs was no easy task... Thanks to a local toy shop, I bought some plastic ones... They would do.
After a few pics, he kicked the money around, photographing the random settlement of the notes.
Next was the wizardry of photoshop skills he has and hey presto the cover was born...
As this was my first book, I was as excited as a child in a candy store.
The covers for Phobic Wars And Mental Dental (MBP) were designed by me. They are cool but not as good.
I need to redesign these so if anyone has any ideas, please contact me.
Nearly completed

Editing to be done, stringently!!

Not long now!!
I'll give you an updated invitation to download a copy soon

Everyone says, ‘you should write about what you know' and if there is something I know a lot about, it's the fear of cockroaches.
The panic and disgust I feel when meeting these creatures renders me quite helpless and my poor coping with this has been a stumbling block for me since childhood.
The trepidation and reactions to these insects has resulted in many an embarrassing memory and equally, a more determined effort not to encounter these creatures at all if possible.
My fear of cockroaches has led me to probably develop other phobic responses. I believe I have become claustrophobic as a response to my fear of these bugs. The logic to this is that the more likely environs for these creatures to live in and thrive in are the dark, confined spaces I now dislike so much.
Just thinking about the insects and what they look like causes the hairs on the back of my neck to stand on end, my body to shudder in freight, disgust and absolute revulsion. This is an involuntary response and personally I would rather tackle a whole rugby team single handed with whatever the consequences of this action might be than face one solitary and relatively minute cockroach.
Phobic Wars is a fictitious story of 2 main characters who although have a very separate story, crash together to help save the world as we know it...
Bugs, Atlantis, science, death... They are all blended in this book.
Please check it out. It's inexpensive and original.
7:45 tomorrow, Sunday 7th... Football history is being made..
One of the oldest FA 's in the world is getting recognised.
Gibraltar FA take a massive step onto the wide world of football... UEFA football
They take on Poland, a great soccer nation.
This is our (Gibraltar) first full competitive match.
The odds are stacked against us but that is great... The underdog has a fierce bite.
It would be so great to win and prove our worth. By the way, the odds on winning or draw are worth a punt...
My old school friend Allen Bulla is their manager and as a Gibraltarian, I am with them 100%..
Come on Gibraltar!!!

This new review of Mental Dental (MBP)
Ever wondered if there's anything worse than a dental abscess?
By Peter - 5 Sep 2014
Amazon Verified Purchase
Intriguing from the start this short story unfolds in front of your eyes like a news headline story right through to the (unexpected?) end. A great read from a fledgling author who will one day become well recognised. Look forward to more from Ram
Thanks Peter

Help the presumed guilty Jessie Stack face the reality of murder.
The police don't believe believe her but she uses her ingenuity and initiative to help solve the crimes
This is a #bloody good read... Bloody in more ways than you can imagine.
Being a part time author can be difficult.
After a long day in the NHS it can be difficult to get motivated to write.
The enjoyment of it allows some focus to return.
Putting my imagination into gear is not a problem though, ideas for developing the story or stories in this case is wildly exhilarating.
Phantasms in the Infirmary is a collection of short stories based on 32 years in healthcare.
Ghostly Nuns, asylum tales and others are written... 9 tales so far, they are spooky too.
At times I have to check there isn't something sinister looking over my shoulder!!!
I think it is brilliantly different and with any luck, there's loads of material for volume 2.
Just waiting for the literary agents decision on this and then full steam ahead. I hope to have this available in October... Fingers crossed.
