Coming up this week:
- I have tweaked my rapid release plans – I'll let you know how that changes things now
- Now You See Her is entering the final push towards completion
- Why I may have just got a little boost to my plans in September
This diary charts my self-publishing journey – the ups the downs, the successes and the failures.

This Week's Talking Points
1) This week's writing:
2) My revised rapid release plan:
1: Mon 9th Sept – Now You See Her [Adam Nicholls collaboration]
2: Mon 16th Sept – Dead of Night
3: Mon 23rd Sept – One Fatal Error [New title is One Last Chance]
4: Mon 30th Sept – Who To Trust [New title is Friends Who Lie]
5: Mon 7th Oct – Burden of Guilt [New title is No More Secrets]
6: Mon 14th Oct – So Many Lies [New book]
7: Mon 21st Oct – Box Set 1 [Dead of Night/One Fatal Error/So Many Lies – Fast Thrillers]
8: Mon 28th Oct – Two Years After
9: Mon 4th Nov – Box Set 2 [Burden of Guilt/Who To Trust/Two Years After – Female Leads]
10: Mon 11th Nov – Left For Dead [Morecambe Bay 1]
***This preserves 10 x weeks of rapid release books, then moves to the more sustainable Craig Martelle model***
11: Mon 9th December – Morecambe Bay 2
15: Mon 6th January – Morecambe Bay 3
16: Mon 20th January – Morecambe Bay Box Set
17: Mon 3rd February … Re-Release Don’t Tell Meg Trilogy at the rate of one book per 28 days? [TBC]
This would give Mon 2nd March/The Murder Place + Mon 30th March/The Forgotten Children + Mon 13th April/Box set
