1st July 2007: My short story "By the Light of the Dark" has just been reviewed on Tangent Online. The reviewer, Aliette de Bodard, says:
"This is a lovely story with a strong sense of atmosphere - the language is beautiful and sings like that of a poem. The story's thrust is the fight between Reason and Need; as the narrator puts it: 'I was the girl who had been praised for her reason. I could not dare to trust my heart.' Her journey into a country where reason no longer applies is well depicted, and the lessons she learns about the nature of love are timeless ones - but still very much needed.' Read the full review.
