Thread: Guest Chat 30th June - Dan McKeown

Dan McKeown, aka our own SamW, will be taking the hot seat in the chat room on the 30th June at 8.00 p.m. London time.

Sam's book, Dereliction of Duty, has been accepted for publication and is due to be released in paperback in September. Sam will be talking about the process leading up to the novel's acceptance and will be happy to answer questions.

Check out the website at danmckeown.net for a preview.

Alright! I have a few questions myself so I'll most likely be there.

cool! good for sam!

Just had to do a little mending there, Baron.

I'm not claiming to be an expert on the subject, but I'm happy to answer any questions I can.

Good for you, Sam. Which publisher?

The website doesn't work very well, which might be my twitchy browser, but I figured I should point it out.

Slick site, Sam. Liking the layout and it's pretty responsive. Good luck with the book.

Allen -- Thanks, mate.

Candra -- You probably need to have the latest version of flash installed to properly view the site. I don't want to give too much away about the publisher and how I found them because I'll talk about in detail during the chat.

Bruno -- Glad you enjoyed the site. I still have a few things I'm thinking of adding. Thanks for the support.

Just looking at your sig, Sam. I've never encountered a self loading sword.

Sam has some really interesting things to say about his own route to getting published as well as the publishing house that he's with. Anybody able to be there for this one should make a point of putting the date in the diary.

I'm bumping this because tomorrow is the night!!!

Should I be nervous or excited? Perhaps a little of both. Looking forward, though, to having a good chat.

New website is up and running. I feel it's much more responsive and less heavy on slower broadband connections. No Flash this time.

Love the new website, Sam. I'm looking forward to the chat tomorrow - I'm sure you'll have a lot to tell us all.

My most sincere and humble apologies, folks. I got my times completely mixed up here. I thought we were having the chat at ten p.m. A few of us are gathered in the chat-room right now, if anyone would like to come. Again, I can't apologise enough.
