Writing Anxieties: The Fear of the Bookstore
A regular reader of Writing Anxieties asked if I would talk about the fact that there are just too many books to read. I will. But not today. Instead, I’d like to focus on a related issue, one a bit more pertinent to the fears of a writer. And that is the over-crowded market. For [...]

Back into it
Day late for Sunday in my City, but hey, was hanging around the Mill Pond with N. for part of Sunday, so here is a shot of Darwin College. I’ve been back from France for over a week now. It seems like longer. I’d almost say it barely feels like I was on holiday, but [...]

Saint-Malo
We’ve been in Saint-Malo for two days. The first we spent on one side of the Walled City, traipsing around a headland. As always at the coast, I’m reminded of where I spent my teenage years. Photo below is particular reminiscent for me of home. Above is the ramparts of the Walled City, which you [...]
Wicked Wednesday: Wandering Nail, Part 2, m/f, NSFW
Conclusion from last week. Part 1 can be read here. About 780 words. The pinch is just sharp enough to catch her breath, but not biting enough to hurt. She clips the nail head in front of her on the rail, and bites her lip. He starts to press, moving his thumb and finger in [...]

I was just after the history and the views – completely failed to make the connection that it was of course dragon related. Saint-Michel is of course [...]

Book Review: Crooked Hearts by Nikki Magennis
I first read Nikki Magennis a few months ago when I picked up Best Erotic Romance (edited by Kristina Wright, see here to purchase). Her story, ‘Dawn Chorus’, which closed that anthology, was one of, if not the, standouts. So when Nikki put a call out for reviews (and a free copy) of her self-published [...]

Wicked Wednesday: Wandering Nail, Part 1, m/f, NSFW
Back doing Wicked Wednesday after an absence! M/F piece this week, not especially graphic, but you’ve been warned. Approx. 780 words. Part 1 of…probably 2. Note, I was in Stockholm recently for a friend’s wedding. Hence the setting. The following, however, is not a true story. In the fresh Stockholm summer, they stumble from the [...]

Wicked Wednesday: Hands and Wine, m/f, NSFW
M/F piece for Wicked Wednesday this week. I followed this week’s prompt – link NSFW. Content includes voyeurism, masturbation, and wine. He sits on the high-backed chair, and watches. One ankle rests on his knee. His shoulders are relaxed, and his shirt is unbuttoned down to the centre of his chest. He holds a glass [...]
