Quaestor2000


I have added three new names to my list of links today. One for Quaestor, my new publisher, and two gentleman who have also been signed up with me. Brian and Alistair write historicals - in fact Quaestor publish only historical novels in their fiction range. At last - a publisher who actively seeks to publish historical fiction!
I was in Corbridge yesterday enjoying a brief spell of sunshine in between the rain showers, and spotted this bold yellow beauty growing through a wall. I've no idea how thick the wall is, but it is about eight feet high, and certainly no crumbling, disintegrating structure. Yet here was this flower pushing its way though the stone and cement, reaching for the sun. If that isn't Persistance, then I don't know what is. It could be an icon for all struggling authors - keep going through the darkness - you never know when you'll see the sun!

Hi Jen,

Roger from HNS said you have an upcoming book to promot on Unusual Historicals, but I can't find your email anywhere. Can you get in touch with me if you're interested? Best to you,
Carrie
