You’re all going to be fed up with this, I can tell. But this is the last one for a while, because it’ll be months before Pilgrim’s Tale is in need of re-titling, if I’m ever lucky enough to get it (a)finished and (b) accepted by a publisher who thinks its temporary title is not…
by putting obstacles in their way. Heh, no sooner had I said “I’m going to be around more on social media. By not having a strict schedule to blog, I’ll actually end up blogging more,” the editing for Poison and Poetry (real title to be announced later) landed on my desk, along with four guest…
Woo! I have a duology. That sounds very fine. Even better is the fact that I can now say that Under the Hill: Bombers’ Moon should be out in April 2012, followed in May 2012 by Under the Hill: Dogfighters. I sent off the cover art sheets today, so it’s all beginning to feel a…
So, I continue to phase in and out of life on line. I’ve been avoiding the computer most of the summer, but I really ought not to just disappear like that, and this post is an attempt to come back. (As an aside, I’ve seen advice on line saying “for God’s sake don’t start your…
I go away and everything happens at once – which is sort of like busses (and how you wait hours for one and then three come within seconds of each other.) I’m not really back from my holidays yet, since the girls haven’t yet gone back to school, but I am at least back from…
1st part available here: http://alexbeecroft.com/2011/05/since-there-is-no-lokaday/ in which the elderly Sceldwulf is telling his disapproving kinsfolk about how he once met two gods, when they were being hunted out of England by the new faith. Chapter 1, Part Two – in which Sceldwulf fulfils an old oath.
I will have to post this on a Thursday. Slightly embarrassing though it is, here is an excerpt of the first ever novel I actually finished. I hit on the cunning plan of telling lots of short stories – because I knew I could finish a short story – and then linking them together to…
It’s been a long dry spell since Shining in the Sun came out. In fact I’ve been writing more than ever before, but as it’s all been going into Under the Hill, I haven’t had anything to show for it yet. However, I can now proudly announce that I’ve just signed a contract with Carina…
I am so thankful that this book is still reaching new readers and gaining new positive word of mouth, but I’m beyond thankful for this review by Cecilia Grant in which she says darned if it wasn’t just… magnificent. If I’ve ever read a better romance, I can’t recall it. It really doesn’t get any…
by Jessica at the Read React Review blog. I studied Philosophy at university so it gives me enormous glee to see my work discussed in the light of Plato. (I fangirl him, and his proof of the immortality of the soul makes me grin.) She really nails the characters of both John and Alfie, and…
