Each of these wee productions of between thirty and seventy pages

This new BeWrite Books e-omnibus covers the first trio of books in Peter Tomlinson’s acclaimed Petronicus Legacy
LAZY LITERARY LUNCHES OFF THE MENU AT BEWRITE BOOKS
The festivities are over and hangovers are hung-up until next time. And since the sparkling new BeWrite Books website went live this week, it’s been All Systems GO!
Our revolutionary Ebook-First with ready-to-go for-print files policy is already proving more popular than we’d ever expected, and our new free mini-ebooks for each BB title are doing the job we’d hoped for, thanks to our energetic,
A BRAVE NEW YEAR WITH BEWRITE BOOKS
As of January 1, 2012, BeWrite Books is an ‘Ebook-First’ publisher ... lavishing the same precision, experienced and talented editorial, design and technical care on its digital editions as it has on its print books since the turn of our new millennium.
In a nut shell, print is now a by-product of our ebook editions rather than vice-versa.
This innovative shift of emphasis is not made lightly.
HERE'S TO YOUR B-B-BEST YEAR EVER
BeWrite Books’ team, authors and readers are of all ages, colours, nationalities and creeds. But, unlike the ‘outside’ world, we get along like one big, happy clan.
Maybe it’s our shared passion for books and the fascinatingly different characters populating them, the places and eras we're transported to, the previously unexplored possibilities and visions, that promotes such understanding and
HAVE YOURSELF A SCARY LITTLE CHRISTMAS
Author Alan Lewis is wrapping the parcels and preparing a traditional merry Christmas for his children. But he has an altogether different Santa story to tell the rest of us … and it doesn’t ring with jingling sleigh bells and cheerful ho-ho-hos.
BeWrite Books today (December 2) releases – in paperback and all ebook formats – Alan’s debut novel, The Blood in Snowflake Garden; the garden is the
SEXY JOYCE McKINNEY IS MORE FUN BETWEEN THE COVERS THAN ON THE SCREEN
Oscar-winning documentary maker Errol Morris’ latest movie, Tabloid, is now becoming a box-office-buster at cinemas around the US. It’ll be on general release in the UK sometime next year and then aired on BBC TV later. The rest of the world will have to wait.
But what’s the big deal? Morris’ film about a former beauty queen who turned sex-slave-driver barely scratches the surface of the
THE LAST SLIP-UP AS RONNIE BIGGS HOODWINKS THE WORLD BLAGGART BIGGS: THE GREAT BRAIN ROBBER
Biggs Performs for the Press Circus on Thursday
The international press circus performed for world famous gangster Ronnie Biggs’ last stand on Thursday.
Well, not so much a ‘stand’ because the grubby thief and cynical conman, still with an ego the size of a hot-air balloon, is now eighty-two, slumped in a wheelchair and can communicate only by poking a shaky forefinger at an alphabet board to
KEEPING AN EYE ON THINGS
Just for once, a wee personal blog to thank everyone for understanding and patience when I suddenly went as blind as a bloody bat a couple of months ago.
My first cataract surgery (a doddle) went A-1 this week and now I have one eye (almost) back on the job. Its twin will join the team during the first week of December. Right now, the two Celtic green orbs are at war and I see double after more
PUTTING IN THE GROUNDWORK TO REACH FOR THE STARS
Young Karl Kofoed always watched the skies. And when he graduated from the Philadelphia College of Art in the USA, he landed a dream job as a technical illustrator for the aerospace industry. But his vision stretched for light years beyond our own earthly clouds and higher than any plane could fly.
In the forty-six years since his career achieved lift-off, Karl’s artist’s eye has roamed the
SAM SMITH, THE B-BOBEL PRIZE ... AND THE SCIENCE OF FICTION
Kurt Vonnegut famously said: ‘Science is magic that works.’
But what about the spells that make that magic ... the Science Fiction that works?
Only two blogs ago, we pointed out that Captain James T Kirk of the Star Ship Enterprise was using cell phones, tablet computers – and even ebook-reading devices – on his Star Trek voyages when Steve Jobs was still in short pants.
The ‘fazer’ stun guns
FALLINK IN LUFF AGAIN -- WITH THE WONDER OF EBOOKS. AND SF HERO ROB SAWYER'S JUST AS SMITTEN
There are many good reasons for reading, and one has just entered my head. If someone don’t read while a-living, someone certainly can’t when a-dead. Anonymarr (circa five minutes ago)
STAR TREK ROMEO CAPT KIRK LOVED EBOOKS TOO!
My first and last attempt at poetry, I promise ya, folks. Painful, eh? I wasn’t cut out to be a poet. Or a castrato singer, come to that.
But this nonsense rhyme (

THE SKY'S THE LIMITROPHE!
BeWrite Books has grown much too big for its britches ... and that’s good news all round.
On October 1 we launch a vital new imprint: LIMITROPHE PUBLISHING. (Interesting and fun etymology as an addendum to this article.)
It’s a publisher-to-publisher project that will benefit those many, many larger publishing houses not yet fully geared to in-house ebook production and effective digital
PIPPED AT THE POST -- BUT PROUD TO TAKE SECOND PLACE TO FRONT-RUNNER ROZ MORRIS
Roz Morris
C’mon, it happens to the best of us ... beaten by a nose to a new idea. But BeWrite Books is proud to have run a close second to a thoroughbred like the admirable, best-seller Roz Morris. She gets a firm and manly handshake from us all on the BB team, and a continental peck on each cheek from me.
She and we had the same idea for running ebooks in specially constructed, bite-sized
OF PIRATE SHIPS AND SEALING-WAX – OF CABBAGES AND THINGS: FROM STAR WRITER AND STAR MAKER ANN CRISPIN
ANN C CRISPIN -- A GLITTERING STAR IN THE LITERARY GALAXY
With my own (Neil's) apologies to Lewis Carroll -- who’s long beyond caring now, anyway -- for so blatantly mangling his wonderful lines in the above painfully contrived headline attempt to explain what this is all about … the unpredictable. The conversation between the Walrus and the Carpenter in CARROLL'S LEGENDARY

LITERARY CLASSICS OF THE FUTURE BY HOWARD WALDMAN
COMPLETE COLLECTED NOVELS RELEASED TODAY BY BEWRITE BOOKS IN ALL EBOOK FORMATS.
For our money, largely undiscovered master wordsmith Howard Waldman is the author who justifies the word ‘literary’ in the dubiously titled genre, ‘Literary Fiction’.
His works, touching on other genres like Science Fiction, Fantasy, Romance, Thriller, Mystery, Political, and even Comedy, sparkle with the rare and
PENINSULA ... POETRY THAT BRAVELY STANDS OUT FROM THE LANDMASS
Today's latest sole-author exclusive poetry anthology from BeWrite Books is Peninsula by Peter Loney.
For the poetically inclined and the geographically interested, a very slightly redacted version of the definition of a 'peninsula' is this: an area almost completely surrounded by water except for an isthmus connecting it with the mainland.
Those cold dictionary words sum up Loney's work

DIAMOND-TOUGH POETRY -- RELEASED TODAY BY BEWRITE BOOKS
STICK FIGURES by KIRSTEN HOLMESFrom BeWrite Books Poetry Editor Sam Smith
Presented with Kirsten Holme’s collection, Stick Figures, I beheld a persona equal parts fragility and hardness, the fragility being Kirsten Holmes’ human vulnerability, the hardness being her exceptional ability to stand off, look with held-open eyes at what has passed, and then to hammer out these, at times ‘hard’ poems
