May Newsletter, fashionably late


Greetings from the writer's lair!

I've been meaning to post a few updates, but have been overtaken by events. There's been my return to the day job after a few weeks' leave. There's the recalcitrance of my work-in-progress, A Wild Goose Hunt, under siege from zombie hordes of supposedly dead-and-buried editing issues. And now I'm told that we're nearly out of tea and will have to ration it until the Big Shop on Saturday… it's hard being an author; hard, I tell you!

Anyway, the updates. To keep things ticking over, I'm going to present the May newsletter as a month's worth of blog musings to date. It's a slightly trimmed-down version of the Subscriber's Newsletter, so if you're a subscriber, you don't have to click through (unless you you find my deathless prose so entrancing that you feel impelled to read it once again).

What you'll find inside mostly compsrises:

  • The 'official' launch of the Bibliothèque des Refusés imprint on 27th May, achieved online with a group of my lovely and supportive writing and publishing friends
  • Having my novel And the Wildness accepted as an entrant for SPFBO, the Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off
  • A bit on my work in progress
  • Events I have attended or hope to attend

So here it is, a mere click away. I hope you find something to enjoy in it all.
