What Autumn Brings | Book Recs

Autumn, I feel, is finally here. The fact that I'm also sat here with a jumper, fluffy socks and hot water bottle, means i'm definitely feeling the change in weather. (Although why? I'm not really sure). I've been lucky enough to read quite a few review copies this month and last, and a few with …

The Million Dollar Blog Tour | Things I wish I knew before I started Blogging

Moving away from my normal two day a week blog posts, I’m really excited to take part in the blog tour for Natasha Courtenay-Smith’s The Million Dollar Blog.

Shining the Spotlight on… Phil Rickman

‘This is my attempt to do something different, because writers should. If you don’t, it’s just another day job. Merrily Watkins has what is very much a night job. She’s Deliverance Consultant or Advisor on the Paranormal for the Diocese of Hereford. Or Exorcist, as it used to be known. It’s a real job; there’s at …
