jl_merrowYup, I do indeed have many things to talk about. Don't worry; I shall probably forget half of them!
First, before it slips my well-greased mind entirely: I have a new release:
This one is dedicated to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tiggothy, who when told of the real life incident this book is based on, said, "Tortoise-napping? Sounds a good start for a silly story..."
Here's the blurb: Cursed by an impatient witch to turn into a tortoise at inopportune moments, Tip is horrified to find himself tortoise-napped by a customer at the cafe where he works.
Things start to look up when Tip ends up very literally in the capable hands of drop-dead gorgeous Steve—but Tip soon begins to wonder just how far he can trust Steve, who turns out to have a close connection with his kidnapper. Tip's attempts at a normal life seem doomed to remain frustrated in more ways than one!
You can read an excerpt here. :)
Second: this, on Stumbling Over Chaos amuses me. Doesn't he look cute with wings? ;)
Third: A lovely review for Someplace in this World in Queer Magazine Online
Fourth: The British are coming!
Check out Brief Encounters from March 20th for interviews, reviews and giveaways from a brilliant line-up of British talent. And me. ;)
Phew. I think that'll do to be going along with, don't you?

I very much admire those who can do derring-do. And long stuff. My muse tends to get very tired and cranky after about 5,000 words!
