So, on Friday, 20th November the Super Relaxed Fantasy club (a London based group that used to meet in physical space but during the Pandemic has been doing virtual events instead) played host to myself, Russell Smith and F.D Lee while we promoted The Elementals and discussed random stuff about Urban Fantasy and History. The video is above for you to watch.
I had great fun doing this but it was very nerve wracking. I much prefer doing things like readings and Q&As in person and this was the first time I had done anything like it on video. Turned out it wasn’t as bad as I expected it to be…
The Elementals is released this coming Saturday on the 28th November. You can pre-order the Kindle edition now by following this link:
It includes a selection of 13 stories by different authors, all on the theme of ‘Elemental magic’. It includes my entry – ‘Transgressions’ – and Russell’s ‘The Social Contract’ as well as stories by Liz Knox, Timber Phillips, Heather Young Nichols and others.
Starting this week I am going to be hosting interviews with some of the authors so keep an eye out for those…
Lurking Musings 
Amusingly I was kind of the other way around. Happy enough to read because I knew the only people who could see me at that point were you and Faith, but I was musing over reading a longer snippet. In the end though, I thought that was a good place to leave it and also enjoyed the rest muchly!
I think I prefer having an audience there in person. I guess it is the teacher training – being used to working off cues from the class to see if they are understanding it. To a screen feels like shouting into the void.
Do need to do more such things! Faith is planning more online kaffeklatches, so maybe one of them might be a fun thing.
