Pete Carter (petecarter) | 522 comments I have started to read Forgotten Truths by young Kevin Thomas and want to send him a pm. But- unless I'm blind, he hasn't got a contact link on his page anywhere. Can you tell me how I can contact him? Or that I can't..........


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Sorry, Pete, no time to help now.

Try googling him.

15 year old author
Hello, I'm new to the whole forum thing, so if I make a few mistakes please forgive me.
I am a 15 year old author of the book Forgotten Truths, my name is Kevin Thomas. I was unlisted by a small publishing house The Wacky Wordshop who made my book available in print and kindle on Amazon and Waterstones.
The hard work stars now really, I'm having so much trouble marketing and getting my book out there, it's so much harder than I thought.
Any suggestions?
My book is called Forgotten Truths (by Kevin Thomas).

This was apparently posted on the 20th May this year. It might be that if it is genuine and he is aged 15 then because he's not legally adult his parents/guardian could be making sure people cannot contact him direct?

Dunno, guessing really

Tim | 8539 comments The author page for him on GR suggests he isn't a member here. But I agree with Jim: since he's apparently a minor, there's probably no way to cold contact him.

Pete Carter (petecarter) | 522 comments Thanks for the replies. On 30 Sept he posted the following:
Kevin posted a new comment on UK Amazon Kindle Forum topic: "16 year old author free ebook! " on Goodreads. There may be more new replies, but this is the only notification you will receive until you visit the discussion again.

...to which I responded. Seeing as he now seems to be 16, and was giving his book away, I think he is genuine.

Trouble is, the book is so badly in need of some proper editing that I can't bring myself to finish it, and I thought rather than leave a disheartening review I'd pm him with some sound advice.

So, if you're out there, Kevin, get in touch!
