NAMAKA... new book on Amazon Kindle, by Tanya Allan

My latest new book is just up on Amazon.
What's it all about?
You ask.....

Just as Covid-19 emerges, Captain Alec Grant (RN) received the news from the authorities in Hawaii that his daughter had been reported missing under strange circumstances. Sabrina Grant had been one of a small group of British university students on an archaeological trip to a remote island in the archipelago when she reportedly vanished whilst inside a cave,

There had been a camera set up outside the cave mouth, and she was clearly seen entering but never exiting.

Finally, a new book for Christmas - Fading Memories

I would like to wish you all a Happy Christmas and hope that 2023 will be an improvement over 2022.

This has been a hectic and challenging year for me. I had great plans to release a book a month - such are the plans we make, eh?
I still am working on so many books, I might just finish a few in 2023 - I'm not being as optimistic as I was last year, as there are too many things to stop me.

But, I have actually finished one, just in time for Christmas - Fading Memories

New Book up on Amazon - Anomalies

- Fanfare of Trumpets... I have actually finished a book! I don't know why it has been so tough, but hopefully, I can catch up and have another one up in a couple of months.
This one - ANOMALIES - features some old friends (Josie, Maxine & Fiona) as well as a newbie in a science fiction/fantasy set in the real present-day and continuing (obliquely) BROKEN PROMISES and ready to bound seamlessly into BOOK 3 - SAM.

Book 82 - Fed on Fear - now available on Amazon

NEW BOOK WARNING! I have just uploaded FED ON FEAR to Amazon for a Kindle eBook and a paperback.
For those of you who might have read The Rats of Hell - this is a rewrite and expansion of that story - bringing it into Natasha Mackay's universe - long after she has died (or has she?).
Kindle version is already available - the paperback might take a day or so longer.

Book number #81 now up on Amazon Kindle - Netherweld, The Sacred Quest....(non TG)

Yup, this lockdown has an added benefit. Book number 81 is up. This is one of the many I was going to publish under a different name, but thanks in part to many of you, books under this name sell best... so here it is, book 1 in a fantasy/sci fi series involving parallel worlds and time shifts.
***Not TG, I have to add***.

Find it here - Netherweld Book1 - The Sacred Quest.

A word of thanks and New Book published - Available on Kindle or paperback - More Than a Number

Firstly, I would like to say that if it hadn't been for this site and Sapphire's Place, Beverley's Balcony and Maddy... I wouldn't have ever gone down this road. So, I'd like to thank ERIN and all of you who have encouraged me and helped (by buying my work) and even offering me advice and I would add - some critical advice, I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing.

New Book up on Amazon - Out of Death's Dark Shadow

Yes folks, another new book published...
Many of you have PM'd me to attempt to ascertain my 'other names' under which I publish.

Well, the truth is that the 'other names' don't sell nearly as well as Tanya Allan, so I am now going to bring all my work under this one - TG or not.

This one is the first of many that I was going to publish under another name - it is a romantic thriller and is as straight as they come.

NEW BOOK on Amazon - My Fair Lady-boy

LOCK-DOWN SPECIAL

I am pleased to announce the result of just two weeks' work - MY FAIR LADY-BOY

Remember the story of My Fair Lady?
Or perhaps you recall the Book by George Bernard Shaw upon which the musical version was based - PYGMALION?
Well, this is not really a modern re-write, more like a contemporary story that borrows just a smidge from the original.

New Book - NOT MY WORLD - now on Amazon Kindle

Hi

Another sci-fi/fantasy book finished and uploaded to Amazon...
WARNING > This is not TG... so my apologies, although a TG character from other books, Maxine, appears briefly at the end.

Find it here, NOT MY WORLD by TANYA ALLAN
but if purchased through this site, then this site gets a little extra.

It is around 72,000 words long and involves alternate realities.

I've had another 'Tanya' moment!

I've only gone and done my usual....

I told everyone I'd start one book and try to get it done as quickly as possible....
I lied.
It wasn't deliberate, I just went and had a sleepless night and had another idea....
That is nearly always fatal.
It kills anything I'm doing and heads me off at a tangent.

So, a few days ago I started a new book... it's called 'Namaka' and I have written 36,000 words in a short time... It's like I'm possessed by a muse who refuses to sleep!

Progress Blog - Just started Charlie's Trails - a sequel to Charlie's Twist

Okay, I've not done this before, but I thought I'd while away the time and start a new book and keep a log of progress as I started.
This is day one and I started one hour ago @ 12:45 GMT .... I am now up to 2228 words.

The Book is called Charlie's Trials and is Book 2 in the Limbo Series.

Going on from the blog entry by Melanie yesterday about keeping up with the news trends and the dreaded Virus, I thought I'd write something wholly contemporary and include everything that is happening in the news.

First German Title - Entirely Blank - Komplett Gelöscht

Hi there

This is to announce my first attempt at breaching the German Market with one of my books
My thanks to Monique S. who has taken enormous pains to ensure the translation flows and stays loyal to the original.

it is available on all Amazon sites, but I thought it prudent to advertise the Amazon.de site here as if you are reading this in English, there is little point in buying the German version unless you have German as a first language.

New Book out - The Award

THE AWARD

In a similar vein to the book IT'S NEVER TOO LATE..

A story of a more mature person who is thrust into change. Not that it is not wanted, but is unexpected and for unusual reasons. This is almost more a story on the impact on others and is a coming of age tale for the over 50s.

Now the hectic summer is over, perhaps there will be more from my muse soon.

Don't forget, if you click links that Erin and team create here, then you will be helping this site out.

WIND OF CHANGE

The third in the series 'Elemental'.
Actually, for those who know me, there might be further books in the series if demand is there.

Elemental Book 2 - Earth & Fire...now available on Amazon Kindle.

Earth & Fire is now available on Amazon. It is book 2 in the series of three, and Book 3 will be up by the weekend - hopefully. For those that are waiting for me to finish other series... Torc 2 will not be long and neither will the last in the William Knox series.

The paperback won't be long. They were put up at the same time, but never seem to finish reviewing at the same time.

Things can only get worse, so read as much as you can now!

Sales are dipping, but new series on the way - Book 1 - ICE out now!

Hi everyone.
Things are pretty dire in the good old UK... and not just the political crap that has hit us recently. I refuse to say any more about that, but to say, sales have slumped and I'm aware that there is less money about.

However, I am please to announce that I have completed a series of three books.... The series is called Elemental and the first book ICE is available already as a paperback through Amazon, and hopefully within the next few hours as a Kindle eBook.

Book thieves.

Has anyone had dealings with geeker.com or ampnovo.com?

I was doing a random search on my book, as I have been subject to unlawful publishing of my books in the past.

I came across these two sites offering my books for free without permission. I have contacted both sites and informed them they are in breach of copyright, so we will see if that has any result.

Authors, it might be worth your while checking for your books.

Shit Happens, But So Do Miracles! Parts 1 - 5

----------=BigCloset Retro Classic!=----------

Shit Happens, But So Do Miracles!
by Tanya Allan

 

Shit_Happens_iStock_000004431591Small.jpg Synopsis
Young Martin Collins was the youngest of five brothers, and no sisters! His mother, Jenny, had always wanted a girl, and although slightly disappointed, treated him no differently!

However, from a very early age, Martin himself realised that things weren’t quite right, and when playing with some girls his age, he made the discovery that was to charge his life!

He was in the wrong body!

Childhood should be a time of fun and laughter, but for Martin it was to prove a depressing and miserable time, until things started to change, and a light shone at the end of his tunnel!

Miracles are few and far between, but for Martin, his life went from bad to brilliant!

New Book out - Kindle eBook & Paperback - "Higher Than Eagles"

The first in what may be a very long
series is up

Higher than Eagles.

Hopefully, Erin and team will have it through this site soon,
but for the impatient, link to Amazon.com here - Higher than Eagles.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2017

Let me take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, and hope and pray that 2017 turns out better in every way than previous years

No commercial - I shall be producing books as and when RL allows, just watch this space.

It is amazing to realise that I published my first book for cash back in April 2011.

I am only a hundred books short of having sold 50,000 books through Kindle alone, so my heartfelt thanks go to all of you who have been kind enough to buy my humble offerings.

Where next?

I have now 56 books self-published on Amazon. I have published some early paperbacks through feedaread.com. I have also used KOBO and Smashwords for eBooks, but their formatting and price requirements made life too difficult, so I think I've withdrawn all of them - I may have one or two left with them. To be honest, it wasn't worth my while, for every thousand books I sold on Amazon, I might sell one on Kobo or Smashwords - I stress - might..

New Book In Amazon Pipeline - Charlie's Twist

Hello all,

Sorry, I've been a bit busy... here is the result.

Limbo Twist 2.jpg

This book was originally meant to be a short story for the 'Adventure' category last month. I over ran, and it went on a bit more than I intended. It is now Book One of a series.

I have just uploaded it onto Amazon Kindle, so by the time I awaken (it is midnight here) it should be available.

There is no link available yet. Please remember to buy through BCTS.

Transgender Ballerina - The Times (UK)

I'm not a great one for reading the newspapers, as I find the constant barrage of negativity and bad news tends to tilt the balance of sanity towards deep depression and paranoia. When you realise that actually the world has a lot more good things happening than bad, but the media don't make any money from them.

Read this Transgender Ballerina

Found it hopeful.

A time of reflection

I just counted the books that I have published under the TANYA ALLAN banner. I have now fifty books to my name. I am gob-smacked, as I only started publishing in April 2011 after some kind people on this site and on Sapphire's Place encouraged me to do so. I have been writing for a lot longer, but most of those 50 books have been written over the last five years. In the first 12 months (2011-2012) I sold just under 5,000 books. Last year (2014-15) I sold a little over 11,000.

New one out! - Marine 2 - A Very Unusual Roman

I do apologise, as this has taken me far longer than I anticipated. I normally research my books, just to ensure that I am reasonably accurate with what's happening, but the research for this one took me to extreme lengths.

I am pleased to announce the publication of my new book - MARINE 2 - A very Unusual Roman.

For those experts into Roman history, and specifically the Emperor Trajan's Dacian wars in the years 102 - 106 AD, please note - I have tried to keep it as authentic as I can, but I have taken a little licence to give a rollicking good read!

Some utter B****** has stolen my name and has published a book using TANYA ALLAN. If you have bought this book thinking I wrote it... refund it immediately and bad review it. It is called ERIC BECOMES EVELYN and is a rip-off... It is badly written by someone who is using my name to sell it.
