Col B's the Co-Editor of 'site to promote new writers!

I think this can be classed as a small success, can't it?

My Crime Thriller friend, Matt Hilton, is becoming increasingly busy with his ongoing book launch and has asked me to be the Co-Editor of Thrillers, Killers n Chillers.

The 'site's taking off now and there are upwards of 20 short stories on there - six of which are mine ;) - encapsulating the crime, thriller and horror genres. 'Our Bill' has a cracker on there, too, with another one to follow I believe. I've learned a lot from the constructive feedback of like-minded people and it's proving a useful tool in showcasing new talent, which is what it was originally intended to do.

I notice there are comments on there from not only Bill and myself, but also other Talkbackers who seemed to have enjoyed the stories: namely CC, IG and Ceka.
So why not pop over and have a nosey and even submit a story yourself (there's a link to email me on there) as you never know where it may lead!!!

    I'm not one for taking plaudits that aren't mine, Lou, so well spotted!
    I could've said 'bash,' 'crack' or even better 'shot' instead.

    Well done, Col!
  • Col BCol B
    Cheers, everyone.

    Robin,
    I did predict 2009 being a great year on another thread. I can feel it in my bones.
    A year for all to ditch procrastination for good and make things happen!
    ;)

    Does that count towards GCSE's too?
  • Col BCol B
    Of course, Probemeister.
    Pass 'em and spread the positivity!
    :D
  • PiperPiper
    I hope so...
  • LolliLolli
    Not a good year for the boards though - my post saying that 'I hoped so. That would be brilliant' in response to Robin's post has disappeared. I posted before Lou Treleaven.

    Anyway, good luck to all Talkbackers, let's hope we all have a fantastic year
  • Lou TreleavenLou Treleaven
    Oops, sorry Lolli. Perhaps our posts clashed in cyberspace.

    They might have Lou, but you don't need to apologise

    I dunno really - don't wanna get too carried away I suppose.
    It's for others to say, not me.
    I'm quite honoured actually!
    ;)
    When you're not used to success, it can be a scary thing when it begins to arrive...in any form...

    I've just uploaded another story from 'Our Bill.'
