Hugh's Views & News 
First of all, I hope my books someday have the same effect on my readers. I love seeing the reading faces! Next, I would invite you to join in the Mystery Thriller Week coming in February. I carefully perused the list to make sure there was a thriller in the bunch and low and behold I found it. So you will totally qualify. This is an opportunity to have readers, fans, reviewers, interviewers, and other blog and web entities take a look at your books. Come to http://www.mysterythrillerweek.com and join us. We need your amazing short stories. We only have one other short story author and it too has a variety including a mystery. Congratulations on the upcoming release! Come see what all the fuss is about at http://www.mysterythrillerweek.com.
Thank you so much for your invite to Mystery Thriller Week. I’ve just been over to the site and have followed. I look forward to finding out what it’s all about.
Yes, I did enjoy taking those photos. I’ve been asked for more: maybe once I see the sales figures for Glimpses? 😱
Sign up! We have some wonderful things to share in the coming weeks and a special present for the charter members that sign up before December 15th. 🙂 Yes!! More photos!
Wonderful news about the book! The photos of you were great too 🙂 Wishing you much success with the book and a continually growing fanbase!
Thank you, Christy. I’m very excited upon the upcoming publication of the book. Been working on getting it ready since June. It’s been a long and incredible journey.
Yipee! Yahoo! Yay! A huge congratulations to you Hugh! How wonderful it must be to see all your hard work, a labor of love I’m sure, compiled in such a smart looking book. Hope you’re celebrating big time!! 🙂
Yes, I have been, Melissa. However, still got plenty of work to do on the marketing front and promoting the book. Loved every moment, though.
Thanks ever so much. 😀
So excited for you, Hugh. There you are, holding a copy of you first book in your hands. You beat me to it, but so well deserved. From blogging to book, you have come very far and I look forward to getting myself a copy – but next year, though, since life is hectic for me til the end of the year. I want to sit back and enjoy your book 🙂
What a teaser. Some of the short stories I’ve read, like the Truth App and Gloria’s chest, but I’m certainly looking forward to re-reading them and reading the reworked versions. Always nice to rework pieces because it helps us see our work in another light, and making it much more tighter. Also, the title is so apt with the cover arts. And your face too in these photos. It is like you are glimpsing into your book and can’t believe what you read 🙂
Thank you, Mabel. I was so lucky with the cover art. Another blogger put me in touch with the artist and I was delighted with the idea he came up with. Honestly, you don’t want to know what ideas I had, but I feel in love with the cover as soon as I saw it.
Many of the stories have been rewritten (some with slightly different endings) and I do hope you will enjoy reading them again. The journey I have taken in writing the book has been amazing. I’ve learned so much, but could not have done it without all the support and encouragement from you and all my other fellow bloggers. You’ve been amazing with the feedback and I’d certainly not be publishing a book if it wasn’t for all my friends on here.
Look out for a competition I’ll be launching with the book. It will run for three months and is open to everyone (except mt family). I’ve some great prizes up for grabs.
The photos were a last minute idea, but I had great fun taking them. They seem to have become quite a hit with many of you. 📸
“The journey I have taken in writing the book has been amazing.” It is always about the journey, and you’re so spot on. All of us are certainly cheering you on, and launch day is not far away. You deserve it, from humbly starting your blog to writing more and more, and now a book out.
I will look out for the competition. It is always so much fun to be around your blog, Hugh. Best wishes for the exciting times ahead 🙂
That’s so kind, thanks, Mabel. I hope everyone will enjoy the competition. I’m also looking forward to hearing news about your book. 😀
Congratulations, Hugh! This is very exciting. The expressions on your face tell just how exciting. What a wonderful eclectic collection of stories, and just in time to make a great Christmas present. I wish you many sales and appreciative readers.
Thank you very much, Norah. I’m hoping Santa will be popping lots of “Glimpses’ into Christmas stocking this year. 🎅
How exciting !
JP
Thanks, JP.
Reblogged this on Second Wind Leisure Perspectives and commented:
Fellow blogger Hugh Roberts is pre-selling his brand-new book, Glimpses! Chock full of short stories written by one of my favorite bloggers!
Thank you so much, Terri.
Not long now Hugh! I remember when we first met through blogging like it was yesterday, and as I scrolled down your post, I realised I’ve read just about every one of your stories. Where has the time gone? And of course, since then, we’ve met at the bloggers bash and kept in touch. What’s different is, you’re about to publish your very first book, and I’m still working on my memoir revisions! I’m chasing that finish line though! So happy for you my friend, you must be over the moon 🙂 I’ll share this as I promised earlier to let everyone know about the pre-ordering. I’m holding out for the paperback – signed, preferably, hint, hint 😉 Also, don’t forget, if you need another guest post, I would be honoured. I read from your reply to Helen above you have some lined up, but let me know what I can do. Huge hugs of congratulations to you once more and wishing you every success with your book launch 🙂 xxx
PS Here’s hoping my comment does what it’s supposed to do…
Hi, Sherri. I’m 🎉 because your comment came straight through. Thank goodness the spam monster has released you. I’m so pleased to hear it all got sorted out.
Wow, doesn’t time fly? I can’t believe that all these 28 short stories have been written since Feb 2014. However, I have rewritten some of them, so be prepared for some new shocks. 😱 I’d be delighted to send you a signed copy. Email me your address and I’ll see to it.
Thank you so much for saying you’ll share the details for Glimpses. Come Dec 1st, the link to buy the paperback version should also be showing on Amazon. It’s a shame Amazon doesn’t offer Authors the option of pre-order for paperbacks. Once you press that publish button, the book goes on Amazon within 24 hours. With Kindle, there’s the option of setting a date for publication.
I hope the memoir writing is going well? You’ll be surprised just how quickly that finishing line comes into view. I’ll certainly be in touch about a guest post (if that is OK). I do have a number of interviews lined up so I think I am going to separate them out over the coming months. I’ve also got a competition lined up for the launch of the book. You think that’s it when you finish writing that book, but there is so much more to think about. 😀
Thanks so much for all your support, Sherri. I really do appreciate it.
xx
Thanks Hugh…I’m so glad too, it slowed me right down, again…. But here I am and able to comment, phew! Oh that’s so kind of you, thank you so much, I’ll email… and re the guest post, I’m glad you have interviews lined up but just let me know when you want to guest post at the Summerhouse. If you’re okay waiting until after Christmas, that suits me better and keeps your visibility going through to the new year and beyond! I can’t wait to share your book with my readers 🙂 And a competition too…exciting! I think the writing of the book is just the beginning from what I’ve seen. And speaking of which, I need to get on with those revisions…keeping that finish line in straight view! Glad to help Hugh, always…and thank you so much for your ongoing support of my writing too! Have a wonderful weekend 🙂 xxx
Hi, Sherri. Doing an interview after Christmas and The New Year is perfect. The competition I will be running, when the book is officially launched, will run for three months, so the more exposure the better. 😀 Thank so much for that.
Have a brilliant weekend.
xx
Excellent, that sounds like a great plan Hugh. I really look forward to featuring you on my blog, gives me a great incentive for the New Year. It will tie in perfectly with your competition too…win win! Thank you…you too! xxx
Thrilled for you, Hugh! And what a fab-sounding collection of stories 🙂 Will be sharing this far and wide once it’s out, let me know if you’d like a guest post xx
Cheer’s Helen. Yes, I’ve some guest posts lined up, but I’m always looking for more. Once the paperback is available (Dec 1st) it will be all systems go. Now I know what’s it like for all you authors out there. Loving it, though. ☺️
It’s great, isn’t it? Nothing quite like seeing your book in the flesh. Please do let me know if you’d like to visit the blog, you’re welcome any time 🙂
I certainly will, Helen. Thank you so much.
You’re very welcome, Hugh 😀
Hugh, I was so taken by the photos that I almost missed the text! Congratulations 🙂
lol. I’m glad they brought a smile to you, Tina. I’ve been told to publish more of my facial expressions, but I’d better wait until next Halloween for that 🎃 Thank you so much.
Congratulations! Beautiful cover and, wow, you can really write a synopsis. Those are so intriguing. I think a lot of authors (ok, maybe just me) struggle with those. Good luck with the launch! 🙂
Thanks, Sarah. Writing those 28 synopsises was the easy bit. Writing the one for the whole book was the most difficult thing I’ve ever written. 😀
Argh. Yes. The blurb was more difficult to write than any of the stories in my book. Excruciating process. I just assumed, with these fab ones you have for your stories, you were able to write the blurb easily.
No, far from it, Sarah. I think extracting teeth would have been easier. 😱 I’m already dreading writing the synopsis for the second book.
28?! Wow, Hugh, that’s an awesome list, with several of my ‘favourites’ that I’ve read on the blog (but I know you’ve said above that you’ve changed them up, which is also a treat). I’m delighted to see the haughty starlet Mrs. Dumplin re-appear, and the hole in the fence story, and several others that I’m excited to jump into and forget the current world around me. 🙂 I’m glad to see you’ve written a lot of horror and SF with this collection, and I honestly feel like 28 stories is a ‘steal’, Hugh! Nonetheless, I’m excited for you and all the hard work you’ve put into this, and not only with posing for all the funny photos^^^. Many best wishes for you moving forward, Hugh. I’ll do my best to leave an Amazon review as soon as I’ve delved into these stories.
Hi, Leigh. Thank you very much. Some of the stories are very short, short stories, so I thought 28 would be great value for the reader. I couldn’t resist putting Marcia Dumplin in the collection. In fact, she insisted, so I did not have much of a choice. 🤔 ‘The Fence’ is one of my earlier stories which many people won’t have read before. So pleased you mentioned it as that tells me it stuck in your mind.
I can’t tell you how excited I am at almost reaching that finishing line. It’s been a long writing journey, but an incredible writing journey. Maybe I should write about it? 🤔
Thank you for all your support and encouragement in getting these 28 stories to print. I really do appreciate it.
Yeah, I definitely remember “The Fence,” Hugh. It’s the first (or close to it) fiction I ever read by you, and I liked it a lot. As I said, I’m excited you’ve revived so much of what I’ve read as well as the loads of new stuff. I can’t wait for Dec. 1 so I can get my ‘real’ copy ordered (sorry, I don’t have a functioning Kindle)! Rock on, Hugh!
Oh, no problem about the Kindle, Leigh. To be honest I’ve found myself going back to the paperback. Something about having that book in your hands. So far I’m on the only one with a copy (the proof), but I’m looking after it as if it were a piece of gold. 😀
Nice, Hugh! 🙂 I can’t wait to have another of the copies in a few weeks.
Congratulations dear Hugh! I am so happy for you and can’t wait to get stuck into the book. I have loved your short stories and know I am in for a treat!
The photos are great too. xx
Thanks, Judy. I’m looking forward to joining you published authors on that bookshelf. 😀
There is plenty of room for you Hugh 🙂
And I hope plenty of music and dancing? 💃
Definitely!! 🎵🎵🎵🎵🎤🎤🎤🎤
Love the expressions! A brilliant advert 🙂
Thanks, Esther. Now I’m wondering what expressions you had on your face when you read the book for me. 😱😳😧😂
Oooh, that would be telling!!!!
I loved the photos all the way through! They made me smile and I really needed that smile. I’m looking forward to reading all of these stories. They look intriguing. 😉
Thank you so much. Just goes to show what a crazy 5-minutes with the camera can do. Those photos seem to be a hit.
I hope you enjoy the stories. Watch out for some competitions coming up with the official launch of both books in a few weeks time.
I’m not terribly competitive. 🙂
Well, I hope I can at least tempt you. One of the competitions should be lots of fun (I hope). 😯
The cover looks amazing and the story line-up quite compelling, but really the suggested reactions one should feel whilst reading the book really make the pitch.
Congratulations!
I still shudder thinking about your Lipstick story as well as the Easter Bunny one. Glad to see they will be terrifying the masses as part of the collection.
Thank you, Allie. Those reactions were more than to do with what I was reading, but keep that to yourself 😀
Yes, those two stories stayed as they were, but others have been rewritten and may have a higher scare factor. 😱
Hugh, I can see that Harrod’s teddy bear is as cute as you! Loved this post, your facial expressions had me in teddy bear stitches !!!! Can’t wait to read your book. Much happiness and success my friend. 🙂
Thank you, Marje. I wonder if I’m as cuddly as the bear, though? 🤔 I couldn’t quite believe it when I heard that Harrods had called their 2016 Christmas bear, Hugh. Some say it’s a very good omen. I do hope so. 😀
Thank you so much for reblogging this post and sharing the news. And thank you for laughing at those facial expressions. They seem to have gone down rather well with most. It was a mad moment I had, but it was great fun to do.
Hope to see you on the bookshelf soon. I’ll let you know what it’s like once I get there. At least we know a lot of people already there.
I do think it is the best of omens Hugh. Mr Cuddly Hugh! Yes, I hope I will be joinin you on the bookshelf soon but it looks more like 2017 for me… I’ll get there. It’s a pleasure to reblog your lovely news Hugh. 🙂
Well, I look forward to welcoming you to the land of published authors, Marje. I hope they’ll let me in when I knock the door to the bookshelf.
Oh! And, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU 🎂 I hope cake is involved today? 😋
Thank you Hugh. Having a lovely birthday. Nipping out soon for a bit of a treat in town. It may or may not involve cake!
Well, cake or no cake, have a brilliant time, Marje. 🎂
Reblogged this on K Y R O S M A G I C A and commented:
You have to see this even if it’s just for Hugh’s facial expressions!!! Reblog of Hugh’s short book Glimpses which is to be released on 6th December. There is something for everyone!!!
Fantastic, Hugh! Judging by the ones I have read before this is going to be terrific. Best of luck! (I’ve never heard of advance in CreateSpace either, although she might be thinking about Amazon and its publishing sites. Although CreateSpace belongs to Amazon they are managed independently as far as I know).
Thank you so much, Olga. Thanks for all your support and encouragement as well. The writing journey for my first book has been a real pleasure because of so many people like yourself.
Being completely new to the publishing game I wasn’t sure about the advance from CreateSpace. I’ve heard of publishers giving an author an advance, but I wouldn’t have thought of it of Amazon. However, I could be wrong.
Ooh it’s so exciting! Are the pics of you in your book too??
Oh no! I don’t want to scare anyone off before they read any of the stories. 😱
Hahaha! But surely your lovely face would make them want to read more???
Only if it was being hit by a wet fish 😯
Erm… Are there photos of that too?
Couldn’t find a wet fish. Make sure to bring one at the Bloggers Bash and we’ll do a photoshoot. Just need to find some volunteers.
Haha! I might have to buy it when I get to London – the other train passengers might think I have an issue…
Reblogged this on Die Erste Eslarner Zeitung – Aus und über Eslarn, sowie die bayerisch-tschechische Region!.
Thank you for the reblog.
This has to be my favourite post of yours EVER. Those photos made me laugh OUT LOUD. Cannot wait to buy it 😀
Well, I’m pleased to hear they’ve made you laugh as well. They were fun to do and seem to be a bit of a hit amongst you. Needed a lie down after seeing the book on Amazon. Won’t be long before the paperback will also be available. Thanks for those writing prompts that produced some of the stories in the book. If it hadn’t been for you, then Amy Lushwick and her lipstick, and Rusty Balls would never have been created.
Congratulations Hugh!!! Your book certainly compliments your ability to take your audience through the genres. I am sure it will be a success, and I love you facial expressions, they are perfect. Kudos!!!
Thank you very much, Patricia. Those facial expressions seem to becoming a hit. I hope the book follows suit. 😀
Reblogged this on Smorgasbord – Variety is the spice of life and commented:
The long awaited short story collection by Hugh Roberts will be available in print on December 1st and on Kindle from December 6th.. to tantalise you Hugh has provided a glimpse (sorry) at the contents with his introduction to the 28 stories in the collection. You can pre-order on Amazon now..
Thank you so much, Sally. Thank you for your email. I’ll be in touch (once I come back down to earth, after seeing the book on Amazon). I need a lie down. 😘
Fabulous line-up – looking forward to my signed copy 🙂
Thanks, Christoph. Looking forward to showing off the book at Llandeilo. 🎅
Amazing cover, Hugh. Good luck with the book 🙂
Thanks so much, Aimer. Can’t quite believe I’ve finally done it! 😳
I can 🙂 You were a talent waiting to happen.
That’s very kind, Aimer. A bad case of blushing, here ☺️
LOL!
I am downright excited for you! I can’t wait to get my copy. As I read through your list of stories, I instantly remembered quite a few such as : Rusty and Lipstick, and not to mention, The Truth App! Your stories have a way of lingering in people’s minds. I just proudly Pinned this post to my board ‘BOOKS OF AUTHOR FRIENDS’ ! XOXO
That’s such a wonderful compliment about my stories, Debby. Thank you so much. I can’t believe that I can log onto Amazon and now see my book there 😳 Is it a dream? No, I’ve finally done it.
Thank you for all the support and encouragement you’ve given me in getting this book together. Love from Rusty and me.
xx
You made the journey exciting Hugh, you’re a natural. And yes, I will always remember that thrill I got when I published my first book! Don’t even get me started about when I received my first order of paperbacks! Yes, there were tears of pride and joy! I’m sure we’ll be hearing from you once you receive yours. xoxo
Oh yes. The paperback hasn’t even gone on sale yet and, unfortunately, CreateSpace don’t allow a pre-order option (like you get on Kindle), so I’m looking forward to that first sale of the paperback, Debby. Yet another reason to celebrate. Thank you. 🍾 😀
xx
It will be your favourite Christmas gift, I’m sure. ❤
