Hello, lovely Den Dwellers. Thanks so much for inviting me here. I’m neck-deep in prep for York and reading for the Costas (largest ever entry this year), as well as trying to sort out the new platform for the course. I’ll make sure I find time to hang out here whenever I can. So good to know this place exists. xx
-
Wonderful to see you here, Debi.
-
I’m feeling quite emosh TBH. What a great space.
-
Having just kicked off a competition on the Cloud – and the Cloud currently lying on its back contemplating its maker, I hope this isn’t the only place (apart from the Townhouse, obviously)
-
You’re a total legend for starting a new comp. No idea what lies in wait for the Cloud. Sigh.
-
It’s not looking good at the moment.

Welcome, Debi! So nice to see you here.

Delighted to be here. The resilience of writers, eh?

Ooh. Ooh. Maybe I really should. Bet I’ll find a load of things I want to change when I look at it again though. It’s been a while.

Hey Twitter, I would love, love, love to find both a fantastic historical fiction novel and a ghost story. So get sending / spreading the word please and make my summer great!

Richard, you should definitely go for it. I’ve seen a few agents mentioning ghost story in their wishlist.

Er, maybe I should dust off my other MS then? The one I put aside, after I was told (three or four years ago) I had no hope of getting it published because it was a ghost story?
Thanks for the kind words, Daeds.

BTW Kate, I love magical realism, and given that the latest trend in publishing is towards ghost stories (Silent Companions etc.), maybe it won’t be long before that’s the hot genre?
I know what you mean, Daeds, about the ‘oh crap’ moment where you see where you’ve been going wrong. But it feels so good once you grasp it!

Editing – a seesaw between ‘bloody hell, I’m a genius!’ and ‘how the hell did I miss THAT!’
-
Hmm – my experience is similar although heavy on the ‘how the hell did I miss THAT!’
-
Well, apportioning that comes down to … thirty smacked heads for every fist-raised circuit of the room in triumph? Or thereabouts. On a good day. (And this the eleventh edit)
