The Anchoress
My latest novella, The Anchoress, is available on Amazon (US and UK) from today. E-book only, but that's no excuse! You know what you need to do.
It's a bit of a departure from my last one. More dialogue and elements of the surreal/irreal/supernatural. I don't mean witches or vampires, though I've nothing against these really.

Anchoress Reviews
Encouraging reviews starting to appear on Amazon either side of the Atlantic, but clearly The Anchoress is going to be more of a slow burner than a shooting star.
As an author I'm not always sure which I prefer: not being reviewed, or being reviewed unfavourably (or even a mixed review). Would I rather be criticized and my book found wanting, or plain old ignored? On balance, I'd say, I'd rather be reviewed, so long as criticism remains constructive. One might learn something, and there's nothing worse than publishing one's work only to be met by utter silence.

Discount Delight!
In the generous spirit of the season, The Anchoress has been knocked down to £0.99 in the UK and $1.99 in the US on Amazon Kindle, Kobo and the iBookstore.
They wouldn't even let you into Starbucks for that, never mind a coffee!
