Robert Smith's Blog - Posts Tagged "siam"
Welcome
I would like to welcome those interested to my blog. Feel free to contact me either through Goodreads or at my dedicated email at thekingsofayutthaya@gmail.com.
"The Kingof Ayutthaya" is published by Silkworm Books, Thailand's premier English language publisher with a reputation for rigorous editing and high standards. The book is currently available in Thailand (July 2017) but will be available internationally from October 2017. It is an interesting book, one that I hopes takes the reader of historic fiction into a totally different world. The history of south-east Asia has rarely been written about in a novel format - and it is my intention to change that! The history of this region should be better known. It is too interesting not to bring into the public conciousness.

Jack Lourens
Jack has left the building!! It is with great sadness that I announce that my pen name, Jack Lourens has gone. He has been replaced by my real name; Robert Smith. One thing I learned was that changing your name is not easy - particularly in the world of publishing! My Goodreads profile, my Amazon author central profile has been updated, and my book covers changed. Jack was "a writer that makes you think" so I will endeavor to follow in his footsteps.
