There have been terrible storms across the UK this week. This morning it’s still chucking it down with rain. Me and my dog have spent ages getting all the mud off, but now my coat’s drying on the rack, the kettle’s on, there’s some bacon sandwiches on the go – and we’re ready to welcome…… Continue reading Good to meet you…author Karen Leppert
It’s blowing a gale here in northern England today. The streets are dark, wet and miserable, and we’re a long way from my guest’s California Sun. I’ve turned the central heating up and put my Beach Boys CD on, but somehow I don’t think this is going to cut it. So I’m hoping a nice…… Continue reading Good to meet you…author Mikki Sadil
It’s October, and autumn has arrived in the north of England. The leaves are turning on the trees, the days are gloomy, and as the poet said, it’s the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness. The poet never mentioned it’s also the season of stinking colds. I’m keeping my distance from my unfortunate guest…… Continue reading Good to meet you…author Alexa Bourne
There’s been a lot of rushing round this morning in the Fairfax household. I’ve dusted the mantlepiece, vac-ed all the dog hair off the settee, plumped up the cushions, and just raced round to the corner shop for a packet of digestive biscuits – proper McVities, not the usual supermarket own brand my guests normally…… Continue reading Good to meet you…author Lin Treadgold

A few weeks ago I read Mary Waibel’s first novel, Quest of the Hart, which is a lovely reinvention of a fairytale. It’s a reverse sleeping beauty, where the princess goes on a quest to save the prince. The villainous baddie is also a female. It was brilliant. Power to the girls! I’m delighted to…… Continue reading Good to meet you…author Mary Waibel

Brown writes Urban Fantasy for MuseItUp Publishing, and enjoys the paranormal of all kinds, from vampires and werewolves, demons and angels, to witches and ghosts.

I’m lucky today to have persuaded the delightful Elle Druskin to leave her lovely part of the world and spend some time in the madhouse I call my home. There are men drilling up the road outside (of course there are, this is Britain), my dog is going crazy, and I’m stuffing her with dog…… Continue reading Good to meet you…author Elle Druskin
