HAPPY NEW YEAR

Thanks to the pandemic and the ravages of the climate changes I can see many new and scary changes bearing down upon us. 2023 is going to be a year when we all will have to make some difficult choices and accept that life will never be the same as it was three years ago.

Here are a selection of ebooks that might spur you on, or help you escape for a while.

JANUARY'S BOOKS

Start the year with a good deed!

Those of you with children or grandchildren who needed a Christmas poem or reading for school, church, or a Christmas occasion take a look here. I was delighted to find a large number of very good, varied readings - poems, prose and songs - online. Saved the Christmas concert from being 'the same old same old stuff yet again'.

Please browse my website and follow the progress of our writers' co-operative experiment with digital publishing. Or just enjoy following the ups and downs of a writer's life. Do you enjoy reading historical novels? Check out mine. I cover the 17thC in Britain, and the Victorian 19thC around the world. Just click on a title cover to read about them. Click again to buy one.


AND a bit of P.R. for my Writer's Choice colleague with his latest historical novel. It's a mid 20thC historical mystery and it's a great read. G.J.'s other two novels both won the San Diego Historical Fiction Award.
