Chinese Whisperings

Free Kindle Books!

May 16, 2012 by Icy Sedgwick Leave a Comment

Got a bit of a lovely post today since I’m able to tell you about two anthologies that are available for FREE on the Kindle, both today and tomorrow. The Red Book and The Yin and Yang Book are part of eMergent Publishing’s Chinese Whisperings project, and you’ll be able to pick them up for […]

Goodreads

October 20, 2010 by Icy Sedgwick 8 Comments

After some subtle persuasion from Paul Anderson and Carrie Clevenger, I set myself up with an author profile on Goodreads. It seems odd to say that, to call myself an ‘author’. I’m not sure why – I have had short fiction published sporadically online since July 2008, I have actually sold copies of my first […]

Shameless Self Promotion

March 3, 2010 by Icy Sedgwick Leave a Comment

Today, it is my turn to be unveiled as part of the new Chinese Whisperings project! It’s really rather exciting, seeing oneself on a web page that’s not yours (and, I would venture to guess, less confusing than seeing yourself appear someone distinctly unpleasant). If you’d like to take a look, have a wander over […]
