Out soon!

I've just been through the edits of 'Pilgrim for love', my medieval themed novella. It's coming out with Logical Lust later this year (not much later!)- and I'm glad to see that coming back to it after a while, I quite like it. (Somehow when I'm writing I often get that feeling that when I come back to it 'cold-blooded' it won't read all that well. Anybody else ever get that feeling?)

It's also been nice to work with a good editor. I've had bad editors (as a journalist) and they can be hell; but believe me there is nothing better than an editor who spots little things like
- she's already taken her stockings off, how can she do it again?
- she's on top, then he's on top, then she seems to be on top again - could you just clarify this?
- I'm not sure 'puke' is a medieval word. (True, it isn't; it's first documented in Shakespeare, in the Seven Ages of Man speech. But I ran through every variant I could think of and the only authenticated 14th century word turned out to be 'vomit', so heck, it's Shakespeare, and he must have got it from somewhere! we decided to run with it.)
- If you read the datelines in one way, your heroine turns out to be a bigamist. Several times over! (Oops.)

Anyway, that's done - so all I have to do now, I hope, is wait!
