Hospital. The word is enough to turn many of us into quivering jellies. No wonder so many of them are haunted - and none more so than Newsham Park. Here's one from their bulging archives...

Twiggy Voo? full cover. Shows a wintery woodland scene at night. In the foreground, a man stands in shadow, in the depths of the wood is a mansion.
And now for something completely different. Perfect for Christmas, an alt history laced with humour and a number of dead bodies. This is Napoleonic Britain 1913.

The most sensitive, beautifully executed version I have ever seen. Two and a half hours long but, for me, no sagging in the middle or dragging out of any element of the story. A damn fine film by any measure. #movies #horror #frankenstein #GuillermoDelToro

A sort of cream colored short-haired cat, lightly striped tail, turning to glare at me because I have interruped the evening meal in the feral food bowl on the porch. It's inside a small wooden house to keep some wweather off. In the background are plastic flowers in a pot because we roll like that.
We would like to note that there are more people following us here than there are subscribers to our newsletter. This is a #justsaying announcement from the editorial staff... and this cat. He is not OUR cat, but he judges you anyway.

OK. I have the location. I have the characters. I even have the beginning and the end.
All that remains is the 74,000 words in between.
Work on the next novel begins...
