Fair play, mate.  Wishing you all the very best of luck with it. Steve

Guys.  Just a quick note to say, the freebie period has now been ended by Amazon.  I hope those who downloaded it enjoy the read. FJAG:  Amazon allowed 5 days of the year as free only.  This has now ended. Steve

They gave me 5 free promotion days over a year, so I just took the 5 days in one go. Steve

Gents,             its been some time since I logged on here.  However, I have returned to offer a free read of one of my books for kindle readers.  It's my way of saying thanks to the Helicopter pilot on this forum who helped me with the details for the helicopters. Its free for the next...

Guys:  I hope its okay to post a link on here, to allow you to have a full and free read of my current novel.  I guess its the least I could do, as it was one of the guys on this site, that helped me with the information I needed on helicopters to include in the story. I hope you enjoy reading...

Well guys, its time for me to leave this arena now.  I enjoyed my time in the military, serving with some of the greatest of warriors.  After leaving, my first book "Amongst The Marines" caused a bit of friction, but I wrote my story, the way it happened back then.  There were trying times along...

This is the Prologue & First Chapter.  I have watered down any swear works so as not to offend anyone.  Also:  Sorry if the formatting is all over the page. PROLOGUE Trained soldiers have a repertoire of fighting skills and specialist training that they use in dangerous and hostile...

This is an interesting thread.  I guess its all about finding out what works for you. Steve

I honestly believe it would make a cool film.  However, the odds of that are like winning the lottery.  That said, my years in the military taught me that nothing is impossible. Best Regards 8) Steve

Gents, what's your opinion on the synopsis?  Do you like it? Steve

Hi Inch, glad to hear your well and keeping yourself busy.  Well, after all this time I've finally put the finishing touches to my Novel, Wasted Resource.  I'm using some points inside it to highlight issues that some former service personnel experience, such as homlessness, PTSD, Alcoholism and...

Thanks, that will be very much appreciated. Best Regards Steven

Hi Guys, I've just finished a novel called Wasted Reource and have searched this forum for a gentleman nicknamed Inch.  Inch gave me lots of advice a couple of years or so ago, about helicopters, to help me to add them to my novel. I have returned to the forum to thank him and to send him a...

Well, I've finally finished the damn thing. Its been driving me around the twist for 3 solid years now. This is a novel I've wrote called Wasted Resource. Have a look via the link below and double click on the Book image as it allows you to read the first chapter...

Bollix is also in the English Dictionary and means the same, but is an alternative spelling.  All a load of "Balls" really, a bit like the Height to Weight Ratio Test!! Cheers Steve

Guys:  Yes it appears the height to weight ratio technique is a load of bollix. I'm pleased about that.  Following the test I'd planned on cutting down on my weekend boozing.  Buy hey come on!!! Some things are just not worth it!!! ;D Cheers Steve

Now this one is always a funny one in my book.  Yesterday I had a height & weight assessment done whilst passing an NHS stall in the town centre.  The result was that I was overweight!!  I'm 5ft 11" and I  weigh 14 stones and can pinch an inch around my waist.  Remembering, of course, that...

Here's another couple of phots from my archives.  We used to do the river crossing drills every year during arctic warfare training exercises.  The water was as ever blooming freezing: Cheers Steven Preece
