There are many things I love about the indie author community, not least the many wonderful friends I’ve made around the world, and the fascinating newsletters produced by such a bunch of truly talented writers.
As is always the case with a community, everyone helps each other. I am thrilled that besides a feature on exploring the Blue City, Chefchaouen in a day, Philippina author Mitos Ming Suson interviewed me for her newsletter, Ming’s World.

It looked okay to me, and I trusted his judgement, even though the website Dangerous Roads warned, “Do not rely on signage to tell if the road is passable.” The write up also mentioned, “multiple high points with massive drop offs,” cautioned it was “not suitable for bigger vehicles”, and concluded with, “Due to its dangerousness, this road will be bypassed in the future by a motorway.” I tried to ignore the, “unlit tunnels.”
“AAAARGGGGGH!” Mike cried, his body tight to the inflatable tube in the bow of the raft. “My arm’s stuck!”
Kirsty and I panicked and sprang forward to pull him back on board.
