I’m definitely not much of a collector of anything, except for odd socks. However, a year or so ago I found a book called “Rodney” by David Hannay for sale on abebooks, and as I’m a bit of a fangirl of Admiral Lord Rodney, I bought it, only to find that it was published in…
Word count on “Away with the Faeries” 15085 / 50000 words. 30% done! So, I’ve completed 30% of the novel in the first week. But despite my defense of NaNo on the metawriters site and elsewhere, I think I’ve decided to give up for this year and possibly for good. I’m really not enjoying it…

Also it has a fantastic trailer put together by the multi-talented Jordan Taylor, who also did the cover: which I’ve been watching and watching ever…
False Colors has won the Rainbow Awards popularity contest in its category (Historical Fiction) And it’s also been selected as a Jury’s Choice book to go on to the next (and I believe final) round, where the winners of each category, and the Jury Choice selections compete against each other to produce one single overall…
And it’s a good one 🙂 More than that, it’s a good review from Victor Banis, who is one of the founders of the gay romance genre, a legend in his own lifetime, and a real gentleman. Hurray! From Examiner.com I finished Alex Beecroft’s Blessed Isle (set in 1790, the British Age of Sail) convinced…
After a certain amount of sneering from the musicians who play for the Riot, it dawned on me that my largely ornamental bodhran, which I bought years ago from some unknown location, was regarded by the musos as “not a real instrument.” So I decided that this Christmas I would ask for a proper bodhran…
Well, we have only a month to go to the deadline for submissions on I Do Two. We have received some stunning m/m stories already – and wouldn’t object to receiving more. (The more quality submissions we get, the higher the quality of the anthology at the end). However, we are a little concerned…
