Mental Dental ( Murder by Proxy) Dr. Jessie Stacks, a competent and caring dentist, is devastated when a healthy patient dies in her surgery. Despite being exonerated she still has to endure the police enquiry and press frenzy which ensue following this sudden and unexpected death. She also experiences a crisis of confidence in her own dental skills and proficiency as a result of the traumatic episode. She sets out to discover if there have been any other similar unexpected deaths within the setting of a dental surgery and whether there are any common factors linking any such deaths, enlisting the invaluable help of her father, an eminent dental surgeon "with connections in high places". He manages to access sensitive and privileged information for her and as Jessie delves deeper into the circumstances of other similar deaths she begins to see a disturbing pattern emerge. But what possible motive could there be for these random deaths? Is it possible that such incredible depravity actually exists? Eventually Jessie finds the unwelcome answers to these questions.
I thought the plot ingenious and entertaining (although hopefully implausible!) and I'm sure it has done nothing to help foster good patient-dentist relationships!

Black Sabbath inspired
There are obviously ideas and structure when writing a book.
The music one listens too also has an influence...
Black Sabbath songs were ringing in my head when writing this book. The original self titled album mainly. Tony iommi guitar Coupled with Ozzy on vocals, war pigs, evil woman but also other chilling tunes such as NIB etc... Inspiration

Reverse Tomb Raider
Unlike Tomb Raider II, Phobic Wars is a story of scientific innovation unleashed by scientists to help the world.
The environmental impact is unforseen and could prove apocalyptic.
Mythology and apparitions from the world's past history intervene with a never before written about story that captures the imagination of the reader.
It's a story within a story.
Multiple plots and subplots that need the reader to keep abreast of what's happening.
A complex and entertaining read guaranteed.

Is money everything?
My book Legally Lucky, is a fictional take on the question at the header of this blog post.
Is having money the key to success and happiness?
The recent interview with Gene Simmons, the legendary bassist from kiss seems to think so.
In the interview with the BBC as attached, he reasons why..
Do you agree on the points name?
What are your thoughts on this?
I believe that money helps but it's should not be the only driving force to happiness...

Tales from beyond, hospital horror
Ghosts are all around us, people have encountered real ghosts in their everyday lives. Hospitals can be guaranteed to bring people and spectral beings together. The structures are home to hundreds of ghosts for obvious reasons... They are built for the living but also the dying and those who have passed on. Add witchcraft and the occult into the mix and hey presto you have Phantasms in the Infirmary.
Phantasms in the Infirmary is a collection of hospital supernatural tales, a compendium of scary stories based on true experiences and accounts.
Is there anything as spooky as an abandoned hospital at night. Having experienced these structures first hand, hand on heart, no.
We invite readers who have a further curiosity about ghosts to visit St Augastine hospital...

Criminal minds on overdrive
Dentists get away with murder...
This was a statement made today in a meeting I attended regarding health services.
What the individual meant was not what I heard.
I heard connotations of Mental Dental (Murder by Proxy)
My third book, was about crime undertaken by Dentists. The most severe of the ten commandments being broken... Though shall not kill!
It's an original story of multiple murders that go relatively undetected.
Psychopathic and criminal minds on overdrive...
Here's the link killer thriller

Extract from Phobic Wars
The following is an extract from Phobic Wars...
My third book, still one of my four favourites.. Lol.
Joey had now reached the lab and had put the soil samples on the most powerful electron microscope they had, ‘Nothing unusual in this soil sample just dry soil’ he thought to himself and over the countless years of research, he had seen enough soil samples to sink a ship with. He then thought of Frances words and asking that they examine them for a longer period, if there were ‘Medusa Dermaptera present they would reveal themselves’ With all of this happening in the background the BETT (Blattella Eradication Toxin Trial) was in full swing.

A passage from the book
An Exerpt from 'The key to the gates of hell' taken from our book Phantasms in the Infirmary
8pm: the evening shift were handing over to the night shift who would take on the mantle for the next 12 hours. They would pass on the charge of the patients they’d looked after and rest before taking on their responsibility from them on the next morning, like a massive health related relay race however the metaphorical baton was a ward full of ill people. A capable and experienced lot, there would be every confidence that the handover the next morning at 8am would be equally as uneventful.
Want to know what happened next?
I'm sure you do..
Well Download a copy of Phantasms in the Infirmary and read it, live it and feel the exhilarating ghost stories for yourself.

Easter Sunday
It's Easter Sunday and I am on call from last Monday through until Tuesday.
Tuesday is going to be a relief.
Back to relative normality.
I am planning to complete some of my writing duties then.
There are a few stories I need to draft for Phantasms in the Infirmary Vol II.
There are also a few other projects in the midst so it would be great to address these too.
In between all this, devote some time to my grandson Heath.
He is incredibly beautiful, he's an angel.
In the meantime Happy Easter... 🐇🐣

Mold, psychosis, ghosts and air quality
Apparently, it's known that toxic mold can trigger psychosis and they believe that it's making people see ghosts...
