    A ghost story based on truth

    in Crime / Mystery / Thriller

    Posted

    I'm an author as well as a reader (of course!) so I'm just letting you know that my latest book is available from Amazon for 0.99 from today, 18th September, until 24th September. This is what it's about:

     

    Ghosts? What ghosts? I can’t see any? That’s how it started for me and I still haven’t seen any but I have seen people see them. Were there ghosts in my Flint Cottage built in 1843? If so, why were they there?

     

    From an Amazon #1 Time Travel Romance author comes the tale of Ellie who dismisses the gossip – ghosts and disappearing people – what nonsense. The neighbours are friendly, if a little strange and the rent is exceptionally cheap. The dishy vicar declares himself willing to help her, if necessary, day or night. Night? And then there’s the warning about a Midnight Train.

     

    Ghosts. Disappearing people? Would you ignore it?

    and also available on Kindle Unlimited

    :welcome: The Kindle is so good for carrying around loads of books at a time, for instance, good to take on holiday. Also the font can be made bigger. But there's nothing like a paperback or hardback for relaxing in the evenings.

    I think Christians take the day of rest on a Sunday as that was when Jesus rose from the dead and proved there's life after death and so they make Sunday the day to go to church. I can't be certain, maybe I'll Google it...

    I am so looking forward to you saying, "This is it! I've found the one that suits us both."    :yahoo:   Not easy, is it?

     

    Are you keeping a chart with headings such as "Good for children," and "Sound theology" and "Interesting Sermon" and "Great hymns"? And you can mark them out of 10. Good fun - perhaps????

     

    Short cut: Ask God to let you know which one suits!

    This sounds like the most positive experience you've had in the churches you've tried out. It's especially good if they cater for young children in their services. I hope you both enjoyed it. I look forward to hearing if you go again.

     

    Oh, by the way, when my children were young I used to take a few picture books with me for them to read during the sermons! They only had those books on Sundays so they didn't get fed up of them - it kept them quiet. I decided not to take any toys that hooted or jingled!

    Have you ever thought of making a list of all the churches you've been to? You could comment on each and give them marks out of 10! It might flag up the strong contenders.

     

    I'm not sure if I mentioned this before but it's important - someone I've known for some years tried what sounded a great independent church. She'd heard that it was attracting loads of new people. I think she said she tried it out and was asked to join - for a fee! Something like that; I've forgotten now. I only remember being astonished at the size of the fee.

    I do know that the Pentecostals are strong in speaking in tongues. I don't know anything about the Anabaptists and Mennonites. I know something about the Amish. 

     

    What did you think about the service? Will you give it another try when the usual leader returns? And were the people welcoming and friendly?

     

    I'll look up on Wikipedia about the Anabaptists and Mennonites asap. Gotta go out now.

    I'd be fascinated to learn about the process of self-publishing through Amazon. Always been curious about how it works, what percentage they get, who prints the paper copy, what the whole thing involves, etc.

    I'll get back to you on that Hux. It might be better if I message you.

    Against all the odds, I am finally ready to launch my new book and until 14th November the prices are lowered to £1.77 for the ebook and £8.50 for the paperback. Also on Kindle Unlimited.

    The essence of the book is that it is based on truth. I really did move into a downstairs flat in Flint Cottage. The highly interesting couple upstairs really did say there were ghosts as did some of the nearby neighbours. I am definitely not Ellie, the protagonist, but like her, I never saw any ghosts. Someone did tell me the ghosts were sitting next to me and they were in the television. Visiting friends were spooked and could not understand why I was so cool about the whole situation. It’s amazing what you can learn to live with. Bits of truth are dropped in here, there and everywhere in the book. There’s more I could say, but I think you have the idea! One thing you can be sure of – as it’s a time travel story, it’s not wholly true!

    The blurb: If you were offered a dream cottage in an English country village and it was dirt cheap, would you jump in without viewing it? Perhaps you would if you had walked out on a no-good two-timing whatsit and had nowhere else to go? Even the neighbours are great, bit strange perhaps. And the dishy local vicar declares himself willing to help day or night. Night? And what’s this talk about a mysterious Midnight Train…are you sure you’re doing the right thing?

    It's the 1970s and Ellie attempts to make a new life for herself, ignoring the gossip about ghosts and disappearing people. Boring? She’ll never be called that again and I think you’ll agree with her.

    This is a treat for the imagination – based on truth. 

    Both the ebook and the paperback will be cheaper for the first couple of weeks and if you do buy ‘Beware the Midnight Train’, I hope you will really enjoy it. 

    Here’s the link: Beware the Midnight Train eBook : Faversham, Anna: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store

     

    Free on Kindle Unlimited, reduced to £1.77 as an ebook and £8.50 as a paperback.

    I didn’t intend to launch this spooky book close to Halloween – it was meant to be finished in July or August. ‘Things’ got in the way. Ghosts will be ghosts and it seems I was overuled, so late October it is then. Here's the blurb.

    This is a treat for the imagination  – based on truth. Yes, really. Go on, travel in style on the Midnight Train and see where it takes you.

     

    Both the ebook, now published, and the paperback (publication 25th October) will be cheaper for the first couple of weeks  and if you do buy ‘Beware the Midnight Train’, I hope you will really enjoy it.

    I'm no expert or fan of Halloween so please be aware, it's probably nothing like a normal Halloween book.
