I know: nowt happens quickly in publishing. But worry not, Dazzling the Gods taking shape as we speak. And I'll have a fancy cover to share with you soonly, but if you can't wait those long months without reading the fruits of your labour (well, my labour, your cash), then my Tuscan-based story is forthcoming in the next issue of The Lonely Crowd, which you can order here. It's a little meta-fictional, a little autobiographical, and features a barely-veiled allegory involving a jay and a gecko! What's not to. (Thanks Cat for the translations.)

Or for those of you less patient still, you can listen to my story 'An Arrangement', which I read (albeit hurriedly to squeeze it in) at the North Cornwall Book Festival here.
