RE: Summer Shorts - The New KUF Anthology Available Now

I liked some stories more than others. But that's what makes an anthology good.

Rosen's was just the best set up for Pompomberry House (I'll start sticking the amazon tabs on now, ready for when they activate shortly)

Please put a bowl of water out for hedgehogs and other night-time visitors, you might just save their life.
While you are at it, feed the birds too. Thumbs Up

And come and talk about it at Garden Wildlife Forum

Golly, that was quick, Susanne. I'm wondering about Rosen's characters, too. I think I know who one is, it's ........

Hee hee hee! None of them are exact replicas of anybody. I have taken a few of the worst characteristics of people I've met on a variety of forums and jumbled them up. Actually, as forums go, I can think of somewhere much more ripe for parody than KUF or Goodreads...

I'm intrigued though Lynda, is there really somebody you recognise...

So far, I've read Fatal Error and I loved it.

Thank you, Rosen. So pleased to hear you enjoyed it. I'm only half way through A Royal Mess, so I'll let you know when I've finished it. Wink

I was laughing out loud when I read Rosen's story, and then almost in tears over Daphne's - animal stories always do that for me, whether they're happy or sad.

RE: Summer Shorts - The New KUF Anthology Available Now

I started reading last night. Couldn't help myself. Love David's story. I guess partly because I'm from THAT era; but also it has a "voice" - that is what makes it stand out - you really feel "at-one" with the character because of that.
