Since 2010 I have been writing a blog called (like several others) 'Writing About Writing'. I try to blog around once a week. I write about the historical background to my novels which are set in the Far East in the mid-19th century. I also write about the actual business of writing and occasionally about things that have attracted my attention or that particularly interest me. I get between 650 and 1,250 page views per month, which is not a lot, but better than some.
The purpose of the blog is, obviously, to support sales of my books: "The White Rajah" and "Cawnpore". As of the end of February, though, they will be temporarily unavailable, as I'm moving from one publisher to another. This leaves me a bit uncertain as to what to write about. It occurs to me that this will be a really good time for me to invite anybody who can write interesting articles that might be relevant to my potential readers and I'm happy to host them.
The first book that my new publishers are planning to print is "His Majesty's Confidential Agent", which is set largely in South America around the time of the Napoleonic wars, although it does feature the start of the Peninsular War in Spain and the slave revolt in Haiti. I'm therefore very open to anything that relates to these as well.
If anybody thinks that my blog might reach people that they would like to talk to, please have read of the blog (
