Welcome to my website. If you've visited recently you won't find a lot changed. If there's anything you'd like to particularly see, drop me a line and let me know.

MY NEW BLOG!!

Okay- everyone's doing the "blog" thing, I know, so my contributions to this artform aren't anything new or clever. But I thought it would interesting to give it a try and see if anyone likes it. I realise that at first I'll be writing for an audience of one- myself. As time passes, hopefully that will improve. Be warned, I could blog about anything and everything with little, if any, political corrctness. Often it'll be about writing, music or any of the creative arts. Sometimes I'll just be annoyed about some crap. Some days it'll be reams of dribbling on, others it'll be a sentence of two. Wish me luck.

My new manuscript for Weltbild publishers in Germany is finished and off to an editor, Jody Lee for her to work her magic editor's pen upon on the story, before it goes over to Weltbild. It's another crime/thriller book with some of the characters from Missing Pieces. I never intended to start writing some kind of serialised novels with the same people in them... you know, not "another Bob the Builder Private Detective novel from Graeme Hague" kind of thing. But I did in this case want to stay faithful to my readers in Germany (of which there are many, it seems) and went down the path of using familiar characters. Next time, who knows? I can't imagine writing about the same people book after book without everyone, myself and the readers, getting a bit bored with it. Then again, some readers love that on-going story type of thing...

The MS is currently titled "A Clean Kill", but I might change that. However, with ACK now in the bag I can soon turn back to finishing off some of my other projects- a new horror book for one, another WW1 story and a collection of horror stories. "Soon", because I'm moving house and some of you know how disruptive that can be. I'll aim to settle down in the new place, before I can get my head into those manuscripts properly again.

I'll once again take this opportunity to thank all those German readers who are making Missing Pieces a success. I'm hoping to arrange to post some news here in German- by asking someone to translate, I mean.

And, as you can see, I'm going to start a blog. Tune in weekly!

Keep reading,

Hello? Hi! How are you? Thanks! About your email... and all the rest of those "spam" greetings.

It sucks, but there’s been so many nasty viruses spread around using these kind of innocuous subject lines (and I’ve been well and truly buggered by a few- it makes you wild) that I can no longer risk opening any emails with this sort of subject. If you’ve written recently and not been clear it’s a genuine letter, I probably deleted it straight away. Please, if you’d like to drop me a line to mail@graemehague.com.au put something in the subject line, maybe the title of one of my books, that makes it clear your email comes from a real person. Anything unique or spontaneous will do.
