Sad but true.
If in doubt - don't quote song lyrics.
And bear in mind: the bigger the artist the more expensive the permission, the more prominent the quote the more expensive the permission, the bigger your print-run the more expensive the permission.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 643: It may be tempting to include song lyrics in your work. (And why not? Stephen King does it all the time.) But beware; the rights to even a line of a song can run into the thousands of pounds- and the publisher will expect YOU to pay for them…

Just ran across a tumblr thread of Slutty Boy 15/16th century mercenaries. Historically accurate costuming! The past was alive, y'all, and it was fabulous.

A tribute to the wonderful Neil Philip from our sister list, Watkins Books.
He will be greatly missed but he leaves behind an extraordinary legacy of research, curated and preserved stories and his own fiction and poetry.

"Kill your darlings," they say.
But sometimes your darlings are carrying their weight, sometimes more than their weight. Don't be killing those ones.
Be a clear-eyed killer, not a red-misted one.

Really enjoyed this book, with its dramatic twist on familiar myths. If you haven't read it already, now's a great time.
My standalone Arthurian novel, The Cleaving, is a frankly incredible 73p in ebook this week from Amazon. I explore this familiar story from the perspective of the women involved. It's a chance to try my work without committing to a series. Offer ends Sunday 8th Feb
