There’s a tradition round my way, that when you want to get rid of furniture or bric a brac, you stick it out on the pavement. Right now you can tell people are stuck at home, because the streets are full of evidence of their clear-outs. Over the last week, I’ve seen clothes, cupboards, kids’ toys (a line of cuddly toys on the wall like they were waiting for a bus) and now cassettes. I’m not sure it’s the wisest idea with the plague going on (I wonder if they did the same in the fourteenth century), but I guess it can all be washed.
AND…
I’m releasing up to chapter 9 of Supernice today. A science fiction story of a girl and her dad trying to survive a bizarre alien invasion. It’s got dad jokes, aliens that get inside your brain to change your personality, and lots of fake smiles.
Here are some comments I’ve received so far:
“I read the first 3 pages and was hooked!!!”
“Read the first three chapters last night and loving it. Looking forward to the next three – intriguing concept.”
“I am enjoying your book a lot! It’s veryyyy engaging and I honestly cannot wait to see where you take your characters next! Making this quarantine so much more bearable.”
“I am hooked! …And I love your way with words. Brilliant.”
So maybe it’s time YOU had a read. Or not if it’s not your thing. But if you’re intrigued, it’s free, involves no obligation and no spreading of germs. The ultimate Covid19 experience!
Every house front seems to have a bag of books outside the front here. It should be great, although I do wonder how many people will dare to read books of unknown origin currently. I emailed a few days ago btw, maybe you didn’t get it – I continually mis-type email addresses. Should I try again?

try again! I didn’t get it. I’ll put the address in without spaces in a reply after this, then I can delete it in a few days (I’m wary of spam, although I have no idea how spammers even work, do spaces stop them? How quick can they get my address and take over my brain?)

Delete away as soon as you get me. I am equally spam wary and I spent my childhood eating school dinners

😀 It’s the peas you needed to be wary of. Hopefully you have now got it!

Not got it yet, but not unusual with that address. Like me it is old and slow. I’ll let you know
