​I’d like to invite you to a special event in August. I’m one of the presenters during Wordstorms’s Ink Slinger Sampler—Local Writers at the Night Market, taking place August 24, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm in the first-floor atrium of the Vancouver Island Regional Library, located at 90 Commercial Street in downtown Nanaimo.

The event begins at 5:00 pm sharp, and the presentations (there are 12 authors involved) end at 7:00 pm. There will be tables set up until 7:30 pm with copies of my books for sale at the Night Market special price.

The first 20 people who purchase a copy of Damaged will be invited to an EXCLUSIVE Zoom session with Helen Webster on June 2nd at 7 pm.  She'll talk about the book, her research into cults, and she'll answer questions.  If you're one of the lucky 20, you'll receive an email with a link to the Zoom meeting shortly before the date. ​

Helen has put her time during the pandemic to good use, and her latest book, DAMAGED is now available for purchase.

​DAMAGED is the story of a determined young woman who questions and resists the dubious authority of a self proclaimed prophet who has taken over her small town. This preacher and his family use sophisticated techniques of manipulation and indoctrination, called brainwashing or thought control, to recruit, entice and exploit those who join his cult-like alternate religion. Eventually this prophet insists that her money-hungry mother and step-father, who are members of his congregation, get rid of her and her younger brother, permanently. This directive will end in tragedy

Due to the current state of affairs, I will not be hosting in-person launches and author talks for this book.  However, thanks to the magic of technology, I invite you to enjoy the following virtual launch on YouTube where I speak about the book, why I wrote it, and what's between the covers.
