After recently turning in the final edits on Queen of Nowhere my editor has given me the official word that I can release the cover copy. And here it is… “When paranoia is a way of life, trust doesn’t come easily. The Sidhe look like us. They live amongst us. What they lack in numbers […]

Here it is, the cover for my upcoming chapbook from Clarion Publishing: Cool’ ain’t it?
Hanging Around in Bookshops
Posted by Jaine Fenn on 3 July 2012 0
The above activity is one I don’t get to indulge in as much as I’d like. However, as I mentioned before, I will be doing it this weekend, specifically between 6pm and 7.30pm at Clevedon Community Bookshop, Clevedon, Somerset. I’ve been trying to decide what I’ll read: an excerpt from Bringer of Light? The opening […]

A couple of weeks ago I had a day out in Bath. I’d hoped to visit the Roman baths, and maybe mooch around ogling the architecture, but by the time we’d fought our way through the storm lashing the English countryside and the A4 traffic-jam and then found somewhere to park it was almost time […]
Downside Girls

So, that Sekrit Project … I’m delighted to announce that Clarion Publishing will be putting out three of my ‘Angel’ stories (a triptych, I might say were I feeling pretentious), under the title Downside Girls. The three stories are linked, both to each other and to Principles of Angels, and they give insights into the […]

Rocket Science – a review
Posted by Jaine Fenn on 20 May 2012 0
I have an ambivalent relationship with hard (or, as some people call it ‘proper’) Science Fiction. I know I can’t write it (for I am greatly afeared of equations) but I like to read it because This is the universe! At its most amazing! However, I sometimes find reading hard SF a matter of virtue […]
Happy Book Birthday to me!

Today marks the release date of the paperback of Bringer of Light, whose marvellous cover (see right) looks even better in the smaller format.

I’m hoping anyone reading this will agree with the above sentiment on principle, but if you want to make the sentiment practical, and you live in the West Country, then I invite you to come down to Clevedon Community Bookshop, Clevedon, Somerset, on July 7th. Actually, just visit anyway – they’ve got rooms and rooms […]
