Scott Bury can't stay in one category.

After a 20-year career in journalism, he turned to writing fiction. "Sam, the Strawb Part," a children's story, came out in 2011, with all the proceeds going to an autism charity. Next was a paranormal short story for grown-ups, "Dark Clouds."

The Bones of the Earth, a historical fantasy, came out in 2012. It was followed in 2013 with One Shade of Red, an erotic romance.

The Eastern Front trilogy tells the true story of Maurice Bury, a Canadian drafted into the USSR’s Red Army to face the German invasion of the Soviet Union. Army of Worn Soles, the first volume, was published in 2014, followed by Under the Nazi Heel in 2016 and Walking Out of War in 2017.

Scott - I was just browsing on here and I read again the review you wrote for 'You Wish' - and just wanted to thank you, again; I love how you wrote about what I'd done with the characters of Ruth and Matt, and saw how I'd observed the people like them. It's one of the best reviews I've ever had - and yes, I do think the same about 'magic' as you, I think! Hope you're having a good writing day! xx

Hi Scott, Goodreads hasn't been sending me updates, so I'm late in friending you. Ack! Sorry about that. :) It's great to see you here too.
