 The cover is now ready for the fundraising book 100 Stories for Haiti which contains one of my stories. It's a brilliant design with all of the authors' names the whole way round the cover.

All proceeds will be going to the Red Cross for the relief work in Haiti and the book can be preordered from the official website. Publication date is 4th March for the paperback. It will also be available as an e-book soon.

An Advent Calendar of Stories was published in December 2009. The idea was a story for every day of advent, but publication was delayed. It will be released again for next year, although copies should be available through the publisher.

My story is 'When Grandpa Comes to Stay' and was inspired by memories of when my blind grandfather lived with us. But my household wasn't quite like Jamie's!
