Whilst I’ve been doing this tour, I’ve been constantly amazed by how inventive my hosts have been in the ways they have differentiated themselves from everyone else (yesterday’s visit to Lord Likely being a prime example). And today’s stop on the tour is no exception, as we visit the none other than Tania Hershman. Tania […]
Well, I have a treat for you today and that’s no mistake. Mrs Darcy is visiting none other than Lord Likely, the priapic brainchild of the genius known as Andy Fanton. Andy’s day job is an artist, creating comic strips for The Dandy amongst other things, which makes him massively cool (and would have seriously […]
OK, sit down. We’ve got a lot to get through today. First of all, today’s official blog tour stop was courtesy of the multi-talented Gale Martin, who I first encountered as a fellow competitor in the Whittaker Prize at The Write Idea forum. Gale is an accomplished mezzo-soprano and opera fan as well as a […]
Today it’s Mrs Darcy’s turn to be interviewed, by the lovely Bec Zugor, apparently whilst doing Bec’s ironing. I think this is something of a first for both Mrs D and myself. Bec is a gifted horror writer who I first bumped into at Café Doom, and we have subsequently appeared in a few anthologies […]
Today’s tour host is the extremely talented Martha Williams, who is currently basking in the glory of being one of the six shortlistees in the prestigious Seán Ó Faoláin short story competition. It’s a very comprehensive interview, in the course of which she also says several nice things about the book, which I hadn’t really […]
Today’s a bit of a first, because on Day 24 of the Never Ending Blog Tour™, I’m visiting Jane Lovering’s blog at the VERY SAME TIME as she visits mine. This may well cause some kind of violation of the laws of physics (eat your heart out, CERN) but we’re going to try it anyway. Jane’s […]
Today started with the alarming news that none other than Baroness PD James has jumped on the Pride and Prejudice sequel bandwagon. Sensing an opportunity for some cheap publicity Outraged at this turn of events, I have duly issued the challenge shown in the picture via her agent. I was initially urged by some of […]
Today’s host is none other than my very good mate Oscar Windsor-Smith. Oscar is a highly talented short story writer who has had stuff published in all sorts of places and he’s also one of the few people on this tour that I actually knew first in real life, being yet another member of the […]
Today I find myself amid the pastel hues of the Festival of Romance. I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing there, but they seem friendly enough. The festival itself takes place on the 21st and 22nd of October and if you’re interested in that sort of thing (and why shouldn’t you be?), the details are […]
Today I drop in on the lovely Danielle Posner-Sykes’ Scrivener’s Progress blog. I’ve only just made Danielle’s acquaintance as she’s a relatively recent joiner of the Verulam Writers’ Circle. (Did I ever tell you it’s the best writers’ circle in the whole wide world? Well it is.) Anyway, today we talk about the pressures of life at […]
