'Over Reif' Countdown...9... 2012...

 Today's countdown is 2012..

Well, 2012 was a busy year. I was on a buzz, I'd finished my first and only book and I got the bug! I wrote my 2nd, The Bethlehem Fiasco in 3 weeks! Yeah, and first copies had 50+ typos! It's the story of Jesus set in the same 'universe' of the first book... yes, it's 'The Life of Brian' but more 'out there'. It didn't do well, but those who read it, loved it, even clergymen!

I was still buzzing from writing two great books (but hit by the fact the second didn't sell well) and I knew I wanted to write an intelligent piece (as the second was just NUTS). So I wrote a sci-fi piece set in the distant past (in the same universe as the 1st and 2nd), The Rage of Atlantis... yes, it's about Atlantis, and one of the main characters is a talking dolphin. This book did better than the first two, and even has more Amazon reviews. Occasionally a sale appears.

'Over Reif' Countdown... 1... 2020!

      The Over Reif and Under Countdown is now on...2020!

In 2020...

Jasper T. Scott mentioned to me that I should try sci-fi... and so I did! What happened next was the Humanity H2O series, a 4 book series which has given me the greatest success so far in my 10 years of writing.

The Iron Writer Challenges were resuscitated in 2020, and so I started writing short stories again, before Humanity H2O took up my writing time...so I brought out the 8th installment of Dani's Shorts...FREE...

'Over Reif' Countdown... 6... 2015

 The Over Reif and Under Countdown is now on...2015!

In 2015 I had a novel published by Line by Lion Publications... How to Build a Castle in Seven Easy Steps, a comedy based in a mud civilisation of zombies, cannibals and... mud. Probably the greatest cover EVER and sold quite a few paperbacks.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SOZYR6G

I also wrote a novella called Alice on the Outside-In, to celebrate the publication of Alice in Wonderland. The story is based on the original, but is set inside a computer. It's FREE on Smashwords... the cover was created by a student - we planned to create an illustrated version but the project got only halfway.

I was also still heavily into short stories and flash fiction... Dani's Shorts 4 and 5 came out, FREE, of course, along with Ironology 2015, the official paperback collection of all 'winners' of the Iron Writer that year.

'Over Reif' Countdown...10....2011...

I thought I'd do a 'Countdown' for the Over Reif and Under launch, seeing as it's been 10 years since I started writing books and stuff. So... today's countdown is 2011...

2011 was when I first saw NaNoWriMo, a writing 'competition' in November, where you challenge yourself to write 50,000 words in one month. I thought it would be good to try and write a novel. I did the 'challenge', though after editing, the novel was below the 50k. I tried to get some interest in it through Authonomy (I think that's what the writer's website was called), and it faired quite well, with some wonderful reviews (though some nasty ones too) and it almost got into the Top 10 one month (11th) so it would be read by a professional editor, but then I realised no one would buy yet another book about the Grim Reaper. So I published it... 'Man by a Tree'. It did quite well, even some paperbacks... sometimes I get a sale every once in a while as well.

Book 4 coming out on 10th December 2021!

The paperback for 'Over Reif and Under' is already out for those who love paper and can give reviews to help the ebook, which will come out on the 10th of December!

It's a strange title, in fact the whole series is strange, isn't it.

Under the Shade of the Sun - how can you be that? 'Shade' in this case meaning 'protection'.

Slaughter Under the Bridge - it speaks for itself, but hey, 'under' seems to be in both titles...

Ascension Under the Stars - again, it speaks for itself, and again the 'under'...

Over Reif and Under - an incredibly strange title. 

Well, book 4 is basically (spoiler)...

... and that's why the title.
