The Hunt for Gollum
As pointed out by ennorwen on LJ this looks fabulous! Maybe a little too influenced by Peter Jackson’s films, but lots of fantastic Middle-earth scenery, and a feeling of real authenticity. I’ll be there for the launch 🙂

Aren’t I inarticulate over the phone!
It seems very few newspapers or magazines want to run reviews of False Colors and Transgressions, but quite a lot of them want to talk to us about this interesting phenomenon of women writing m/m fiction. I had an interview over the phone the other day with a journalist from Columbus, and I’m never at…

Calling slash writers in London
I’ve just had an email from Laura Baumbach asking if I know of any movie-fandom slash writers who live in London. She says Do you know of any London are fanfiction (films) slash writers? A radio station in London has contacted me and wants to interview one. I couldn’t think of anyone off the top…

They were having their St.George’s Day fair and wanted some attractions, and the Ely and Littleport Riot women’s morris side had been employed…

And now for something completely different
Morris Wish me luck! I’m going on my first dance-out with the Ely and Littleport Riot Morris dancing side in an hour. Eek! I’m terrified. I have my waistcoat, I have my hankies, I have bells on my shoes, and sticking plaster on my heels because the shoes still murder my feet if I let…

Positive results of Amazonfail
1. Huge amounts of inadvertent publicity for False Colors, Transgressions, and The Filly, in particular, and the existence of gay romance as a genre in general. Ironically enough, in trying to keep it invisible, they’ve managed to publicise it all over the world. 2. We’ve become aware that censorship on Amazon is an ongoing problem:…
