SHORT CIRCUIT - now available for pre-order


Short Circuit is now available for pre-order. On Salt Publishing's website, HERE (Look, I'm sorry about the photo of moi on the website there - really. It is a poser's paradise, that pic. Just concentrate on the BOOK!)
I would like to visit as many blogs as would like to invite us,... to talk short stories, about how this book came together, about the amazing generosity and passion of the contributors - and to share some writing fun with your readers. A few writng ideas... a different one invented specially for each blog!
Because it IS. It's hard work, but it is fabulous when it goes well - and this book is aimed at opening up that magic.

An essential read. Short Circuit is a collection of essays from writers who are passionate (and successfully!) about short fiction. A real gold mine of insights and ideas for aspiring writers and for those seeking a refresher. The Bridport Prize

Nothing wrong with that pic, young lady - tres glamour, en fait.
Would love to invite you onto mine for guest post; but (a) nobody reads the bally thing, & (b) the people who do aren't writers of fiction (more's the pity). If you can think of way around this that permits you to have your say on mine, do let me know.
