A few bits of good
news for this month! To start with, my six-part serial, A Countryman’s Favour, is in The People’s Friend weekly magazine, which is available in most UK
supermarkets and newsagents and on the Readly app for overseas readers.

A Countryman's Favour is a romance
family drama following the lives of the Rose sisters as love and tragedy
takes them across Norfolk, from Wheatacre to Great Yarmouth and Norwich. The
story’s plot was heavily inspired by the county’s mustard history and
methodism, when itinerant preachers, known as ranters at the time, would spread the word on Norfolk's village greens.
I’ve also heard
back on my New Year short story, The Mystery of the Ruby Necklace, and it was
accepted! The Sweetest of Dreams was also submitted last week. Hopefully I’ll
hear something soon 😊
That just leaves,
as mentioned last month, The Gingerbread House and Follow the Stars. Follow the
Stars has actually grown a few extra limbs, with the main character’s family
demanding more page space, so I might end up turning this into a longer piece.
