Time for a little self-promotion. This isn’t something that comes very naturally to me, perhaps as a result of being British, or perhaps just as a result of being me, but occasionally it’s necessary, and this is one of those occasions. Drum-roll please…

So, I’m pleased to announce that my short story collection, It’s Complicated, is now available to purchase as a paperback from Amazon in several countries (I know! International stardom awaits!) and also from Lulu:
It’s also available as an ebook from Lulu if you prefer to do your reading on screen.
As if that wasn’t enough, this week has also seen the launch of our writing group’s online magazine, Blue Sea Writers on Medium.com. Not only does this feature fantastic stories from some of the group’s other writers, but it also gives you the opportunity to get a sneak preview of Stronger, one of my more recent stories from the collection. Who says you don’t get anything for free these days?

Look out for more of my pieces over the next couple of months – and hopefully thereafter if I manage to get my finger out and start writing again! Publishing the book has been great but between that and the amount of time my teaching is taking up right now, there’s not been much time left for writing – or headspace for inspiration to strike. Roll on Christmas!
Ooh, and what better Christmas present for your loved ones than a copy of It’s Complicated?
Too much? OK, I’ll stop now. But do check out the magazine. What have you got to lose?
