BlogHop: Three Things I Don’t Write (and Three Things I do)

Another of those writery blog tour things with the twin purposes of providing you with a few titbits of insight into someone whose blog you already read and linking backwards and forwards in the chain to other writers that you might also like. I was tagged for this one by Ruth Booth, by way of Benjanun […]

Infinity Plus Plus

News from Keith Brooke that Infinity Plus Books have revamped their website. It’s all sexy and easy to browse now, and displays a really impressive roster of authors and books. If you’re a Brooke fan or a fan of Eric Brown, IP is pretty much the go-to-place for their work. Likewise, as a long time admirer […]

The first tranche of titles include a selection of collections of short fiction by Infinity Plus founder Keith Brooke, plus a little gem from […]

New book watch

I love Keith’s writing and anything – ANYTHING – new from him I consider an absolute treat. As soon as this hits the shelves in Glasgow I’m having it. 2/ Seeds Of Earth […]
