Something you probably don't know about me is that I have a background in acting and film making (from a long time ago!)
It been a while, but I decided to give making a book trailer for Broken Silence a go. This was mostly just for fun, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. You can check it out below :-)
Helen Vivienne Fletcher and The Children's Bookshop warmly invite you to the launch of Underwater.
6pm, Thursday 3rd of May 2018 at The Children's Bookshop, Shop 26 Kilbirnie Plaza, Kilbirnie, Wellington.
RSVP: books@thechildrensbookshop.co.nz
Broken Silence has been getting some great reviews lately. Thanks to everyone who took the time to review it.
"I could easily see this transfer onto the big screen; it has all the right elements to make a fabulous psychological thriller movie to keep audiences glued to their seats. It certainly kept me glued to the pages, I read it in one sitting with a short sleep break!"
"...perfect for teens who want a gritty, edge-of-your-seat story but I also know that adults will love it too. I’d love to see Broken Silence on book awards lists next year as it is certainly a winner with me."
"This is one of the most nail-biting psychological thrillers I’ve read in a while. ...the plot was tight, making Broken Silence a tense, dramatic read."
- Sarah Forster The Sapling.
"Helen has managed to craft a character that I really cared about by the end..."
I'm excited to announce that my first young adult novel, Broken Silence is now live! To celebrate, I'm throwing an online launch party on the 6th July (New Zealand time - 5th July Eastern time.) There will be games, guest authors and giveaways (both from me and the guest authors.) I would love to see you there - come for the full 12 hours, or drop in and out as you can. The giveaways will stay open for 24 hours, so feel free to join in later if you can't make it on the day.
If Facebook isn't your thing, but you're interesting in the book, you can buy the ebook of Broken Silence here, for the special launch price of just 99c until the 7th July, or buy the paperback here.
I hope to see you at the event, and I hope you enjoy the book!

A stranger just put Kelsey’s boyfriend in a coma. The worst part? She asked him to do it.
Seventeen-year-old Kelsey is dealing with a lot – an abusive boyfriend, a gravely ill mother, an absent father, and a confusing new love interest.
