Elizabeth, welcome to authors.com  …from The Chuck!
               I write sci-fi novels filled with adventure, mystery, romance, drama, horror, and comedy… Sci-fi for every human to enjoy. I'm also a published poet. When you have a few free moments, please check out my Authors page and a few of my videos and blogs I have recently added. Many of my blogs consist of free to read enjoyable sci-fi stories I plan to unite within a book titled: 'Epic Marvels. My newest sci-fi novel: 'They!', which is somewhat related to the 1954 sci-fi classic movie, 'Them!'.

Let me know if you'd like to become friends.

The Chuck!

I have you as a friend on my page... I haven't checked this side of things out. Let me investigate. There must be a button or something we click on the author's profile.... Or maybe someone can enlighten us!

After the thread of discussion you have the option to add as friend - you don't have the option because we are already friends as I invited you! x

Thanks, Liz

I (hope I've) left a comment somewhere as an introduction, but knowing how good I am at LinkedIn and FaceBook, it's probably disappeared into the ether. Can you see it, I wonder?

It says:-

Hi Ian, Yes, got the message! Crime thrillers that's my territory, with psychological, suspense thrillers. I have a trilogy out that could continue (Killing me Softly Trilogy). I may come back to that when I have finished the sequel to Whispers on the Wind, which I am passionate about and is very different from the others. It is set in Wales between the wars and focuses on the hardships of one family and in particular young Carrie who faces life affirming and shattering experiences that shape her into a woman never to be forgotten.  I am now working on the sequel, Shadows on the Moon. 

It is tough, getting an agent and published. I have an American agent for my screenplays and an American manager - but still trying to sell one to get made! I have been optioned many times and have made some wonderful contacts. My screenplays and plays are under my name of Liz Spear but my novels are under my stage name of Elizabeth Revill.

There is something called First Writer Alerts, where I found my publisher. I will email you with the link, unless you already subscribe. It is worth it. My son, Ben Fielder, also found publication through this.

I also write children's stories but haven't done anything with them. I am currently working with an illustrator on one project to present to the world. I have also, adapted it for animation and have a UK animator interested. We will see! So my writing is quite diverse. I have had a number of stage plays performed (and a few published with you - 6 I think!)

I think we just have to keep at it! the only failures are those who give up!

I know how disappointed you must be with getting so far down the line to publication only to have the rug pulled out from under your feet. I am sure many of us here can empathise with that.

My first three were published by a small publisher who knew me as we had attended a writing group together. He specialised in local history and I was his first foray into fiction. It was a big learning curve and although it looks good on the CV it wasn't the wisest choice and I committed all three to him. Never mind. I have higher hopes for this latest one 

Nice to meet you Elizabeth. Welcome aboard. :) I hope you like it here! I look forward to reading what you share with us. The people are nice, trust me.

Thank you, Scribbler - great I.D. by the way! I am new so folks will have to bear with me but I believe it will be not only friendly here, which it is proving to be, but helpful to us all. Happy New Year to everyone and here's to a busy and productive 2012.

Elizabeth - Wow I'm impressed with your CV, and also thank Sarah for believing I'm a mentor for marketing. I suspect I might be a few pages in the book behind you, but happy to share thoughts and ideas. Also will be checking out your work. message me and we can catch up

A warm welcome to you Elizabeth. Authors.com is a great place to be. Enjoy yourself! :) Would you be so kind as to drop by this thread please and tell us how you found your way to Authors.com? :)

Hi Kay, I learned about Authors.com through Sarah Luddington, checked it out and thought it looked as you said, "A great place to be." So here I am!

Your works sounds very interesting. My first novel was an action thriller, the second, ventures into the world of crime, with a twist...I'm just on the cusp of getting my first novel "Outbreak" a little publicity prior to publishing. I think you're brave for approaching the book stores  yourself. The thought makes my knees weak.

OUTBREAK | Released Date Pending

The world is plunged into chaos as a deadly virus spreads across the globe, killing millions in its wake. Is the 'outbreak' the long awaited epidemic foretold or something far more sinister?

As society crumbles, a New World Order is born. Those deemed to be infected are mercilessly destroyed in an attempt to halt the spread of the virus or so we are led to believe.

The reality is beyond comprehension as, Dan Lucas, an ex-royal navy communications expert and Jon Derrer, a specialist police firearms officer, fight against the rampant madness that spreads across the UK. With help from beyond the grave, will they be able to right the wrongs of a world plunged into insanity or will they perish in the process?

Outbreak is a fast moving, paranormal, action thriller that keeps you gripped to the very end.

Coming Soon... 
INBREED
Not since the days of the Yorkshire Ripper has death stalked the streets of Northern England spreading fear among the population.

Based several years in the future, after the re-introduction of the death penalty for murder, the story tracks a serial killer known as the 'Double Slasher', as he's brought to justice by DCI Haimer and his team of homicide detectives.

The tale follows the accused from bloody murders to the trial at Crown Court and the inevitable verdict.

Sean Solomon weaves a tale of - did he, didn't he? - that sways the readers' judgement one way and then the other, in a strange sympathetic rollercoaster ride of emotion.

As ever, look out for the unseen twist in the tale that will take your breath away!

Thank you very much for the kind feedback...I hope you don't mind me putting your comment and book details on my website...Let me know how you book promotions go, I'd be interested. Are you on facebook? I can't find you - If not it's a good platform for promotion...
