A few things

Firstly I want to say a huge CONGRATULATIONS! to my mate and partner in crime at Brief Encounters Reviews, Tam, for the release of her first short story Winterlude over at Torquere Press.  Here's the blurb:


Eric hates the cold weather and his broken down car, which means venturing out on foot into the sub-zero temperatures. Navigating the icy sidewalks, he runs into Omar, literally. An impromptu hot coffee on the cold day finds that tattooed and pierced Eric, and government IT guy Omar might have more in common than they expected. When Omar is called away, before he can get the guy's number, Eric believes it may only have been a pleasant winterlude to temporarily distract him from the cold, or is there a possibility his winter will get a lot warmer?


It's a great little story and you can buy it HERE.


Secondly, I've done one of my very occasional Sunday ramblings over at BER today.  I'm talking about my feelings on anthropomorphic heroes, so do pop over and give your two pence worth.

Thirdly, I've now finally finished the marking and so a reasonably normal service should resume here from now on.  Sorry if you are waiting for a review.  I shall endeavour to catch up as quickly as possible.

  1. Thanks for the shout-out Jen. :-)

    So glad you are done with your marking. What a thankless task that is. Enjoy having some free time back, well as free as it can be with 4 kids and a husband. LOL

  6. Thanks, orannia. We don't get summer in the UK, just rain and degrees of coldness :).
