Smashbomb

A while ago I joined a site I had never heard of called Smashbomb thinking it was just another social media site.  I am happy to say that I was wrong.  :)

Smashbomb is a review site, not by professionals, but by ordinary everyday people like you and me.  I put my first review up thinking nothing much would happen, then all of a sudden I had people adding me and following my reviews.  I thought it looked like a cool site and I found out that not only can you review movies and tv shows but you can review books, cd's, apps, games and a whole lot more.

I can honestly say that being a member is something you will not regret doing, I definitely don't.  Since I joined I have also been fortunate enough to win a couple of competitions on there including an ebook and the cd soundtrack to the movie A Star is Born.  They are constantly doing giveaways and updating a long list of different prizes.

I now have almost 150 followers and its growing daily.  If you love reviewing products then this site is the best out there.  You can give honest insightful reviews that do not have to be all positive, you write what you think of whatever it is you are reviewing.

Another massive plus of the site is that you can also add products if they are not there.  I have already added over half a dozen obscure movies and I am now personally credited with adding them.  Every so often you can gain badges for your contributions and the more followers, more reviews and more products that you add, the more badges you can earn.

I love this site and visit it daily which gets you something called Kudos points.  You also get these if you write a review, or if someone likes your review.  I am a member of a lot of different sites and this is right up there with the best of them.  I don't usually promote websites unless they have a big impact on my day and this one certainly does.

Which One

Well its been a very quiet day and i need a little advice.  I am currently writing my second novel in my fantasy series and also working on my second book of poetry.  I am also wanting to write another book and have three synopsis for new stories.  I would appreciate if you would read all three and then leave a comment as to which you think would have more potential.  :)

Book 1

Cal Johnson is a mild mannered everyday run of the mill guy.  One day he drives his car at full speed into a concrete pillar and is engulfed in a ball of flames.  He walks away from the car.
Alison Stanton loves her husband of four years.  On the same day she slaughters him with a carving knife and sets fire to the house as she sits in a chair and burns.  She walks out of the house unmarked.
David Anderson works as a draughtsman.  He kills his partner and destroys their office.  Throwing himself from the top floor of the fourteen story building they work from.  He gets up and walks away.
On one day over 3,000 more people will choose to kill the ones they love, take their own lives and walk away unharmed.  Every one of them heads in the same direction, but where and why?

Book 2.

Garata has held court over the cloud kingdoms for more years than he cares to remember.  There has been peace and prosperity while he has ruled.  When he is slain and a new man takes over the darkness that has lain far away begins to descend.  A journey to a distant land might be the only way to save the kingdom, but none that have dared to venture have returned.  Who knows what lies beneath the Cloud Kingdom.

Book 3

Detective Alan Merchant has been a detective ten years.  In that time he has dealt with the dark side of humanity and all it has to offer  He thinks he has seen everything until now.  Two bodies are found in a park both seeming to carry no wounds.  When a newspaper is found underneath one of the bodies it shows a picture of the same two men, both dead alongside each other, the problem is the date on the paper 14th June 1936.  The year is 2019.

Just some ideas for stories and i think they all have possibilities.

Any help appreciated.

Wow what a book :)

The Richard Beckinsale Story. David ClaytonThe Richard Beckinsale Story. David Clayton by David Clayton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow what a fantastic insight into one of Britain's greatest actors. Although he died at just 31 years of age its incredible to think of how much he had done and how much he was loved and respected by everyone he ever knew, whether it be actors, school friends or anyone else. He truly is missed even to this day and this book is a must read for fans of either him, Porridge or Rising Damp. In fact just give it a read and see what you think. I would say its one of the most insightful biographies i have read :)
