Talking Robot!
Crank Tech One: DESTRUCTION to be made into an Audio Book, with In Ear Entertainment, and will be available on Audible/Amazon/iTunes, when recorded.
Wizards Return
It's been a while since Wizards' Kingdom opened up my writing world. This was my very first dip into magic and wizardry. So, I've decided to write another wizarding adventure. This next series won't be in any way linked to my first series.
The idea of writing another mythical and thrilling trilogy has been nagging away at me for years. I've got some really great ideas which once I've finished Death Trap, the book I'm working on at the moment. Then it will be full steam ahead.
I can't give anything away now, but I will put the progress on my blog. I have the titles and character's names, and a bunch of different plots so far.
Keep watching...

I can`t wait to read your other books, I want to be be a author one day like you, I think you gave me the final boost up when you came to ables writers day, it was quite a long time ago, but I will always remember it, I still have the mini story we wrote with you, Death-Trap, I think I`m going to extend it and trying put it in my own book.
I have also written a whole book, you were really the one who really inspired me to do that.

Letter from Four Lanes Community Primary School
This note was handed to me by the pupils of Four Lanes, after I did the Able Writers workshop on Friday November 22nd 2013.
Dear Colin Parsons
Thank you so very much for doing this Able Writers Workshop, and replacing a regular school day, with a fun, entertaining and all round enjoyable one. It was well worth coming and we feel that you inspired us to write amazing stories. You are hilarious and we just love that you gave us this opportunity.
Best wishes
The Four Lanes Able Writers
Thank you kids. I really enjoyed the day too.
Readers Comments:
Having read Crank Tech One, Destruction written by the same author ( which is a great read) I always wondered where Crank came from, what's he been up to before he became crank. This is a short prequal which starts to fill in those blanks. As the old saying goes "you can't judge a book by its cover " which must admit I really like the cover of this book. I went through this in about 40 minutes, but what a great 40 minutes it was. It's very well written almost impossible to put down, and it gave me a glimpse in to the other, shall we say talents this Robot has.
Knew this was a short story, and was willing it go beyond where it ended. Colin R Parsons has a talent for leaving you wanting more. And I want to know more about IU-137. Great read for all ages male or female,Well done Mr Parsons. Well done indeed.A Brooks (a fan)
'The other day I called to pick my twelve year old granddaughter Shanine up. While waiting for her, I picked up her latest book, Wizards' Kingdom by Colin R. Parsons and could not put it down. She also raved about it, and was eager to get her hands on the next one. I was so pleased that she had finished it, so I could take it home. A great read:' Sheila Quigley author of 'Run For Home'.......'Every Breath you take'...'Thorn in my side' and many other award winning novels.
