A Star in the Heart


I was delighted to receive my copy of the new anthology, A Star in the Heart. I saw a call for submissions through the Federation of Scottish Writers earlier in the year and I sent in little story of 800 words called 'The Christmas Visitor' - a warm-hearted story about a nurse in an old Glasgow hospital and her ghostly little visitor. I was subsequently very pleased when it was accepted!

A Star in the Heart is a lovely paperback and is filled with seasonal poems, amazing winter images and a few short stories. It's been produced in aid of The Christ Church Community Centre Development Fund in Henley-on-Thames. I feel honoured to be in such a beautiful book - from away up in Scotland!

At the moment, the book is only available in print. If anyone wants a copy, you can let me know and I can arrange for one to be sent to you, or you can order direct from: managers@christchurchhenley.org.uk - it costs £9 plus £2 postage for up to 2 copies.

If anyone lives around Henley, they're having a launch with Advent Supper, music and so on and readings from the book, at 7.30pm on December 6th at Christ Church, Henley. Wish I could be there!
