Hello all, in a nice end to the week I've just seen a new review of the forthcoming Red Room: New Short Stories Inspired by the Brontes.

The collection itself includes some great stories by the following:

Elizabeth Baines Bill Broady David Constantine Carys Davies Sarah Dobbs Vanessa Gebbie Tania Hershman Zoë King Rowena Macdonald Alison Moore David Rose Felicity Skelton and a poem by Simon Armitage Edited by A. J. Ashworth

It's available for pre-order now and is out on 1 November.

Also, wrote a story this week and submitted to the London Magazine competition. It has a polishing motif and the main character is called Harold. Much tamer than my novel. It definitely helps to take a break from novels every once in a while, write something short and I think allows for some refocussing?

Here's the competition link, if anyone's interested in having a go. Deadline is 31 October.
