You can hear me read a couple of stories from ‘A Tricky Dance’ here:
Just realised that it is a year since my NIF ‘A Tricky Dance’ was published. It’s had some lovely comments. I’ve a few copies left if anyone would like one — £8 to include postage within the UK! Just dm me or send me an email via my website 🩰🏴
