There’s no novelty gift, paper hat or bad joke, and they don’t go bang, but these further two new pairs of stories could become exciting additions to your yuletide festivities. Ideally there would have been a longer gap between the three pairs released last week and these new stories. Last week’s releases were, regrettably, late. The last thing we want is for readers to feel pressure to buy when funds might not be plentiful. Partly for this reason – and partly because M John Harrison’s last Nightjar story sold out in a couple of days, frustrating some regular readers who were unable to get copies – his new story, ‘English Heritage’, and its partner publication, Claire Deane’s ‘Middleton Sands’, is each published in an edition of 300. We’re delighted to welcome back both Mike and Claire.
We are equally delighted to welcome back Robert Stone, with his very fine ‘Spoon’, and to introduce, for the first time in Nightjar, Cliff McNish, whose story, ‘The Periphery’, you will want to place right at the centre of your Christmas reading.
We thanked them only last week, but however many times we thank John Oakey of John Oakey Design, the designer and typesetter of all our publications, and Bella Royle, for maintaining and updating this website, it could never be enough. Merry Christmas to them and to everyone at H&H Reeds Printers Ltd of Penrith, and to all Nightjar readers and writers.
