New Release! The Black-Eyed Boy by Karen J. Mossman
I’m thrilled to be able to share my latest collection of ‘old’ short stories.

What an absolute delight this book is to read. It’s perfect for dipping in and out of, with a cup of tea in your hand, just as the blurb suggests. You’ve heard the expression “doomscrolling”?
