If you don’t mind, I’m just going to take a moment to relax.
Ah, that feels good.
It’s been a busy couple of days in my neck of the woods. Yesterday, I received my copies of Small Forgotten Moments just as I was getting ready for work. And obviously, I wanted to share it straight away so I ran around the house trying to find the best light to take some decent pics.
I’d considered doing an unboxing video. But I wasn’t expecting them quite so quickly and thought it was something else, so I just tore right into the box. Ooops!

Just after that, I received an email acceptance for a short story from Fairlight Books, which will be on their website next month sometime – more on that nearer the time. So, after posting the book photos and replying to a couple of early comments on Facebook, I also had to do a little celebration dance about the story.
And that, dear reader, is how I almost came to be late for work!
This morning is no quieter. After a lovely toasted teacake at my favourite book shop, I came home to a message that the pre-order links for Moments were up and running!!! Just click your favourite retailer below and check it out (or search, for Small Forgotten Moments if the link isn’t here).

I love the cover of your newest book. I was trying to think of the right words to describe it. Edgy yet charming.
