Tangled Roots



Morning kids,







I've being hospitable today. And for a few days after too, hopefully it will distract you all from my secret for a little while until I can unveil it. Possibly with some sort of blog based drumroll. We shall see.







Anyway, enough about me.







I'm hosting two geet properly talented authors on my blog this month; first (and I'm bit late hosting her, so sorry Sue):



Sue Guiney, author of the really rather mint: Tangled Roots






Two people, an aging son and his mother, roots forever entangled. . .

John, a forty-year-old Professor of Theoretical Physics, finds himself
alone and stuck. Unwillingly, he faces his event horizon, a turning point where
he must confront his past and accept it.

Grace, his mother, sits in her
living room telling stories of their lives and so reveals her own view of “what
really happened.”

In Tangled Roots, two voices interweave to carry us
from Boston to London to Moscow and back again. Through physics, religion,
travel and even baseball, they express the often unknown, yet undeniable,
influences one life will have on another.






I've so very nearly finished it. It is, I must say, quite special.





More on this soon, complete with an interview and a little competition, so stay tuned.





Not long after I've also got the pleasure of hosting Rachel Green, author of "An Ungodly Child" and, oh yes, more competitions too.





I am so very, very popular.

Holy moley! In hospital?! Yup that distracted me from your secret all right. Hope you are all right too.

Oh dear!
Something unexpected, I suppose.

Psychiatric ward?

Who? Me? Nah. Just got me tenses all confused, like. I just meant that I was being hospitable and friendly like.

But you do make me feel loved :)
