On dead flies and sherry trifle

Posted on Feb 18, 2016 by TanGental

There’s something quite delicious to awake to a completely unexpected post about something you’ve written. Jesska has been holed up reading Dead Flies seems. Please have a look at her blog. It’s worth of your attention peeps!

I haven’t written lately.

You can blame Geoff from TanGental.

I don’t really have a lot of time to spare for either reading or writing when I’m at home, so I use my commute for both.

The commuting time for the whole of the last week has been taken up with reading Geoff’s book: “Dead flies and sherry trifle”.

I’ve finished now, so I can get back to writing (and reading more posts by other people).

I don’t really do book reviews, but if you have a need for a book you can’t eat read quickly enough, and/or for insights into teenage boys’ thoughts, you could do a lot worse than this :).

My verdict?
Go and see for yourselves. (You can read a chapter or three on his blog)

About TanGental

My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline. I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy. I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere. These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.
