THE MAC LOGAN CERTIFICATION TO THRILL PRESENTS THE FOLLOWING: 

LIFE IS LIKE BUILDING A SANDCASTLE

LIFE IS LIKE BUILDING A  SANDCASTLE

Hello Everyone

I must admit sometimes creating and writing a book is like building a sand castle. And, that's because one has to apply common sense with some form of technique to achieve bringing to reality a must exist form of prose,  or fictional book in popular culture. 

So, therefore  when one tries to paint a portrait to unveil a tale that unfolds great storytelling in its best form.  We come to grips with the establishing of a lore that has the same kind of pressures to explore facets that relinquish doubt and builds trust and even inspires others to compete and spur a legendary rivalry within this format regardless of any genre . 

I thank the good LORD that I am successful at what I do. As a self published local author with an international appeal. I thank the good LORD for making me a unique strategic trainer and more importantly amongst other things a great storyteller. I really feel blessed to understand the dynamics and mechanics of a great tale. I don't take this gift for granted  and that's why I've come to realise that it takes planning, research and the likes of strategy to tell the best tales.

I remember when I was a boy my mother would take my sister and I to visit a family friend who lived near a beach during the Summer. We would play on the sand and build sand castles. And we did our very best trying to finish one because the sandcastles kept crumbling.

Life can be cruel. However, it broadens your horizon and sets you apart with experience. In this case, it shows how one can build or develop their vision of what they would like to achieve.  For example, when I was building those sandcastles with my sister I had to find different ways to ensure the sand creation was standing strong and firm on the ground. And, that's how I think life is viewed when you look through the lens of a writer or a creator. You develop a technique to spin a good yarn and in the interim find a relatable way to tell that story. 

Need I say more? I don't think so. Life is really what you make it regardless of all the odds stacked against you. If you prove or consider yourself brave, wise and courageous you will strive to do things differently and ensure you overcome all the challenges put in front of you. Remember, you're not just fighting. But, winning the battle as well. So, no matter what you think sometimes  life can be likened to a sand castle because you simply have to get back up whenever you fall. Just like the sand creation  that crumbles. You find a way to build it back up.

Talking about other things the free masterclass programme the MECHANICS of ADVENTURE WRITING dubbed M.A.W! is back by popular demand. And, it will be promoted in different libraries and community outlets in the UK soon. I can't wait to start training again using my niche in adventure writing to discover new writers and new trends to tell and showcase stories.  

There will be radio and podcast shows to attend too. All the shows are booked to talk about my mystery adventure books and training work in the community. And, last but not least there will be special promotions of my latest Whack JOB novel titled SHADES OF FALCON: The Crooked Deal Vol 2. 

I need you lot to trust me again. For LOGAN will RETURN SOON.

STAY SAFE!

 THE MAC LOGAN  CERTIFICATION TO THRILL PRESENTS: 

3RD DAY AT THE LONDON BOOK FAIR 

3rd Day at the London Book Fair

Hello Everyone,

I hope this message finds you all well, 

I found time to accompany my publisher Mr Michael Williams to the London Book Fair hosted at the Olympia, London located at Hammersmith Rd W14 8UX. 

The LBF is one of the world's largest publishing trade events. It brings publishers, authors, literary agents,  distributors, and industry professionals from around the world.  The LBF is also an event  to buy  and sell rights, discover new talent, and discuss the future of books and storytelling.  This major event in England is considered a big mainstay alongside the Frankfurt Book Fair and the Book Expo America.

Now, the LBF was scheduled to  start on the 11th to 13th  of March 2025. And I happened to be there on the third day with my mentor and publisher friend Michael. The CEO of BIS Publications and the research writer for the best selling British Inventors and Scientists series of books.  I was there to showcase my newest mystery thriller novel. Shades of Falcon: The Crooked Deal Vol 2 and promote my Adventure writing workshop dubbed M.A.W!-Mechanics of Adventure writing. This is where I get to share and educate the world about my kind of art,

Anyway, I didn't do much of that at the event and that was simply because we were engrossed with other presentations, For instance,  listening to other authors talk about their writing experiences and the tips they gave to aspiring authors who felt compelled to go down the same road.  I had a splendid time mingling with people and learning from others and in that time was invited to talk on two podcast shows, Lucky me. One of them was run by an American outfit.

 I had pondered  on what to do next with my training programme and the series of mystery adventure books I had created using the BIS platform Michael had provided for me. One thing was clear. The audio programme was calling out to me and I knew it was time to take a decision and go on that path and change the game forever.

Remember gang the Rattlesnake now prowls the streets again. STAY SAFE!

 THE MAC LOGAN CERTIFICATION TO THRILL PRESENTS..... 

IT'S  VALENTINE'S DAY. HOWEVER, IT'S DARK AND GRITTY  ON THE STREETS AND THE UNGODLY STALK!

THE SNAKE AND THE SEQUEL: SOFAL!

Have you read SNAKE AMONGST SHADOWS AND SHADES OF FALCON: THE CROOKED DEAL VOL 2 (SOFAL!)? Well, if you haven't you had better grab a copy of each book because you don't know what you're missing in the WHACK JOB! series published by BIS Publications.  

 SOFAL! is the newest pulp mystery adventure novel topping the charts right now. You had better grab a copy. For justice screams and mayhem walks. Besides, it's Valentine's Day and  I'm sure you guys could do with some classic adventure reading. The Whack JOB! stories are modern and action packed. These pulp novels are suspense thrillers that pack a punch. There are probably more mystery stories like this in the works from yours truly.

For those fans who've read the books I'm sure you thought you had seen it all with the series so far. Think again because Mac Logan will return in another exciting adventure which is dark and gritty and lays emphasis on why the ungodly prey and stalk the streets of London everyday.

Logan is a man with a special kind of skill set and a mentality to win. In fact he's a man willing to go to great lengths to seek the truth regardless of the consequences. A man who will also fight the odds no matter what. So, even though the man called Jarrett has been known to wear his heart on his sleeve it doesn't stop one to acknowledge the fact that Logan is considered a deniable asset and an unlicensed gumshoe with a questionable past and a memory loss condition that seems to be the bane of his embroiled troubles. 

As I mentioned the Rattlesnake's crime fighting job on the streets is not over yet.  That simply means that things are just getting started. And, the ungodly should beware. Logan's adventures continue in another explosive brand new caper that blows the lid off chivalry. He once again becomes an expendable PI and this time the clock is ticking.

So, strap on your seat belts and don't go anywhere. There's more news coming about Mac's newest caper. In the meantime grab a copy of my newest pulp thriller at any pop up store or log onto this web page to learn how to purchase a copy of the new book. Remember it's titled SHADES OF FALCON: The Crooked Deal Vol 2.

IT'S ASSUMED THAT BAD GUYS FEAR THE LAW. BUT ONE THING IS CERTAIN. MAC LOGAN FEARS NOTHING. SO, WATCH OUT FOR THE RATTLESNAKE AND...

STAY SAFE!

So What's Next? PITCH SELLING AND LOTS OF REVIEWS.

Hello EVERYONE,

REVIEWS, REVIEWS, REVIEWS. Let the REVIEWS BEGIN. Let the REVIEW STORE step in.

Some fans have offered to review my first thriller. SNAKE AMONGST SHADOWS and SHADES OF FALCON: The Crooked Deal Vol. 2 the long awaited sequel now published by BIS Publications. 

These two mystery adventure thriller books feature the exploits of Mac Logan. A mystery man who works in the shadows as an expendable private investigator known only by the name Jarrett and who is also known to some as the Rattlesnake.

So who is Logan? Why don't you find out when you follow the intrepid exploits of the Expendable PI or log onto www.maclogan.blogspot.co.uk for more details. The contact details to get hold of these novels are online and on this webpage as well.  So, let the reviews start coming in. Let the review store begin! 

So, what's next?

That brings me to tell you about my plans in the next few months. 

In my last piece I wasn't sure what I could do especially after the unveiling of the SOFAL thriller thrown into my lap like that. SOFAL means SHADES OF FALCON.  

Anyway, with that revelation I was thrown in the deep end. But, I triumphed in the end because my second novel is now published. And I have to showcase my work through the following alignments. 

For instance,

• Doing book signings in libraries, 
• Collaborating with different people
• Doing book launches
• Doing specific events
• Pitch selling
• Branding  

These are just some of the things I could do this year.  

There will also be speaking gigs on the menu.  So, I guess this is  my cue to say to you all, watch this space and my way to tell you get signed in. For Mac Logan will be prowling the streets again SOON. And, that means one thing. There will be more exciting stories featuring the expendable PI.  

I am a crime fiction writer, a born storyteller and an educator amongst many other things who takes pride in his work. I will be real busy with  my writing research in Adventure writing this year.  Hey Gang, STAY SAFE!

MAC LOGAN'S WORK IS NOT DONE YET. HE WILL RETURN.

 

THE MAC LOGAN CERTIFICATION TO THRILL: THE MAN CALLED JARRETT IS FINALLY HERE AND THE WHACK JOB SERIES SOARS WITH A BANG!

Hello Everyone

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I can't believe the Rattlesnake mystery thriller novel  I wrote titled 'SHADES OF FALCON: THE CROOKED DEAL Vol 2 ' was finally green lit and published by BIS Publications. 

It took a while. But we finally got there. 

And, the comments, praises and the encouragement given in the form of short pieces written about it all has been somewhat thought provoking and amazing. 

Here is one of them and its been written evidently by my publisher Mr Michael Williams the CEO of BIS Publications.

'London's leading local crime fiction author, a graduate of BIS Publishing courses  and now a renowned trainer of Adventure writing courses has just released the highly anticipated sequel to his debut best seller 'Snake Amongst Shadows'. 

Shades of Falcon: The Crooked Deal Vol. 2 is a must read  for thrill seekers aged 16 to 120!

Dive into a world of suspense and intrigue with this gripping new release. Don't wait - kick off your new year with an unforgettable read. Get your copy today!'  

I really thought Christmas would come early as I told you in my last piece before the holiday. However, learning about this quelled my fears of not getting published and subdued the thought of not being good enough to write a world class thriller.

So, my second thriller book in the 'WHACK JOB'  series is now published. 

What next? I'm still trying to figure that out. But, I've come up with a few ideas which will  tie in with my collaborative efforts to  pitch and sell my work to the public domain. 

There are other ideas I would like to explore . But, right now I can do with some reflection time because I've  had a big sob and have beckoned on my ancestors.  My grandfather and my father including my aunt who passed away almost three years ago. All this seems weird without her around because she helped me a lot with this particular suspense story which wreaks of culture and identity. 

Anyway, I'm grateful to GOD who made this book possible. I'm also grateful that the BIS Publications team believed in my work and allowed me develop the anti-hero called RATTLESNAKE using their platform. In the meantime I will be weighing my options and looking at something different. I promise to write more books and tell more intrepid stories of Mac Logan. The Expendable PI.

Hey, Gang STAY SAFE!

Mac Logan will RETURN.
