I have a title (I think, I'm still letting it settle) for the new novella. It's TRIBUTARY. There is a reason behind this, Guy Mason is drifting through a depression-laden Europe in 1933, with no real idea of where he’s going, like a twig in a stream, as it were. He’s upper middle class, (think Charles Ryder in terms of class) and will probably be first to join up for the International Brigade. The book involves his life taking a side road, or at least him finding a fork in the road, as it were. Themes. We can haz.

I have a “win a signed copy of Transgressions” for two people competition running at the moment. I launched it on Literary Nymphs but as there have been no entries from that venue, I’m opening it up here. Write me a gay fictiony-based limerick (can be about gay men, can be about the writing process, any subject at all)

e.g. Erastes the Author felt blue,

She just didn’t know what to do

Her protags, so natty,

Had become very chatty

And they’d both rather converse than screw.

Molehill Empire: Here’s my (very nationalistic) garden. Roses and Cauliflowers. I really wanted to do flags from the four nations, but I couldn’t work out how to do a dragon in the space allotted and there’s no real blue for the union jack. Yes, so sad.
