A Tail for all Seasons, volume 2, was launched to invited guests at the Port Erin Arts Center on Saturday 5th December, with readings and a question and answer session for the general public held on Thursday 17th at the Henry Bloom Library, Douglas. The anthology contains twelve short stories, one for each month of the year, all with island themes. Mine is the short for December and, unusually, is not humour, but a time-slip romance entitled Lily, a snippet of which will appear on the site in the near future. For those that would like to purchase the tome it can be obtained from Amazon, ordered from your book store or direct from the publisher, Priory Press.
