I have kept quiet about this one, but now I have news. My new book is ready for editing, which means that it should be on sale in three or four weeks. 'Stella and Rose and Other Stories' is my first anthology of short stories. There are five in all. The title story, 'Stella and Rose', is really a novella, rather than a short story. It tells the tale of two devoted sisters in post-war London and details how they try to ward of destitution in a bankrupt country. If that sounds grim, it isn't really. You'll have to read it to find out. Then follow three stories that have already been published in other anthologies elsewhere - but I own the copyright, so I am putting them out myself as well. All three have been rewritten from scratch and extended, so they are really quite different from the originals. Finally, there is a fourth Rutter story, which also sets up the basics of a further novel - although that is for the future.
It is my intention to make these available for borrowing as well as sale when they are published on Amazon in a few weeks' time. Hope you like them.
