As we run up to Valentine’s Day, you won’t read a better story to get you in the mood.

How Amazon categories can get you a movie deal
As regular readers of this blog will know, I’ve got a bit of a thing for time travel stories. It’s my guilty pleasure genre and this year I’ve been lucky enough to publish three of my own time travel titles. The Very Thought of You has had an option offer from a Hollywood producer, which is pretty amazing for an ebook novella that had only been on sale a month and sold about 25 copies when he got in touch …
11 before 11.11.11
Or How I Published 11 Books in 9 Months Was it only this March that I announced to the world that I was publishing my first ebook and there would be another ten before the end of the year? Seems like last week. When I first announced it, it wasn’t 11. I thought, hey I’ll get ten titles out before Xmas, the idea being to get a firm footprint on Kindle in time for the holiday season increase in ebook …

Can your love live up to the most romantic city in the world? It’s Disneyland for lovers; a place to indulge in a romantic fantasy world. But if you fell in love with someone in Paris, could you trust your feelings? Would it have a real future? Or should you just get out of there and fall in love somewhere where it’s safe? Five couples try to find the answer on New Year’s Eve in the French capital. By morning …
Touchstone Poppy Appeal

The unforgettable fire… Continuing the adventures of Rachel and Danny, a pair of mismatched History students who stumble upon an old gravestone that catapults them back in time. Dealing with the catastrophic fallout of their previous encounter with Amy Parker in 1912, they now race to locate Amy during the 1940 Blitz and become caught up in the nightly German bombings of Birmingham and their chilling aftermath. Touchstone explores a city’s dark past: a gritty world of real danger where …
The story therapy that will rock your constellation
How can a German family relationship therapy exercise help with your story? I went along to the London Screenwriters’ Festival to find out. And boy, was I surprised at what I found. I volunteered to be a guinea pig for new story tool Constellations, when script editor Hayley McKenzie innocently asked me if I’d like to take part in one of the workshops at this weekend’s London Screenwriters’ Festival. They needed a writer who had a problem with a script. …
And the award for best ebook cover goes to…
I’m not a designer, so it’s something I hire experts to do on my behalf. Almost all my book covers have been designed by Pete Bradbury at digit64. He’s done a sterling job, and it’s the kind of Photoshop wizardry that is way beyond my meagre talents. He handles the difficult, complex Photoshop work for me. I’ve had no design training, but I used to run a web company with a very talented designer and picked up some basic principles …
OutsideLeft are having a special week
I’ve had good weeks and bad weeks before. I’ve had weeks off, weeks sick, and weeks away. But I’ve never really had an Andy Conway Week. Even though I am Andy Conway. But here it is. Outside Left, the online international pop culture magazine, have just announced their Andy Conway Week. This all came from editor, Paul Lamont, who I met through friends of friends at a party. He told me how much he liked Girl With the Bomb Inside …
