For #WarBooksWednesday we're looking at Hungarian author Aladár Kuncz's Black Monastery (1931; Eng trans. 1934). It's a remarkable story of internment in France for the duration of the FWW, into April 1919. By @raythomson_ and @afrayn, ££ @ENUCAMC. blogs.napier.ac.uk/english/a…

It's #WarBooksWednesday again! This week, it's J.M. Barrie's The Old Lady Shows Her Medals (1917). A very curious play in which a woman manifests a desired son... Research and initial words @RayThomson_, edit by @afrayn, ££ @ENUCAMC. blogs.napier.ac.uk/english/j…

It is my last day today in publishing, so I am taking the opportunity to share some thoughts today, as a marketer, before tomorrow, when I'm a full-time writer. 1. Bloggers - don't be mean. Don't tag authors in bad reviews. Don't post opinions about their personalities online.1/?
