New Story on Fleeting Magazine
I’m pleased to say that I’ve got a new short story online at the lovely Fleeting Magazine, home of much that is short and good. The story is a little confection called Footnotes in Search of a Story.

Art of Fiction – Blogging About Literature
- Blogging OffI've been blogging for a long time, but what was once called "push button publishing" has found itself left behind in an era of social media tweets and Facebook posts on the one hand, and web zines and memes on the other.I've been not writing that much here for quite some time, an the odd review or feature couldn't really make up for […]
- Albums of the DecadeWith 2019 - and the decade - coming to a rapid close, the first lists of "best albums of the 20-teens" have started to come out. Whereas the younger me could tell you what year any album had come out, everything gets a bit hazy around the millennium...and continues to be so.Was "The Suburbs", easily my favourite Arcade Fire album as long […]
- Never Mind / Bad News / Some Hope - Edward St. AubynThe three novels Edward St. Aubyn wrote about "Patrick Melrose" between 1992-94, though they've since been expanded to a quintology, are really three long chapters of the same book. In "Brideshead Revisited" Sebastian Flyte warns Charles Ryder about his family, not wanting them to first charm him, and then destroy him; but any such w […]
- Short StoriesI had a bit of a flurry of getting short stories published a few years ago, but nothing in the last year or so. Strangely the last story I had published was picked up for Best British Short Stories 2018. I think I've lost the thread of who is publishing what, but doing a bit of writer's admin, I've found I've got about half a dozen comple […]
- Art ThoughtsI've been thinking of doing more visual art for a while, and finally having a space of my own where I can set up a "studio" has led me to do it.

Dear Adrian,
I am writing from Fleeting to let you know that we recently relaunched as Fleeting Books, a London-based literary consultancy, with a panel of published authors offering a range of editorial services. Although the magazine no longer exists as a separate entity, we continue to publish new short fiction and interviews on our website, and have several new projects in the pipeline.
I don’t know whether, having previously featured in the magazine, you would be interested in writing a post on your blog about the developments at Fleeting, but we wanted to keep you updated in any case, and hope that you are having success in your writing.
Please do pass the word on to any budding writers you may know, and we hope you enjoy our new website.
Best wishes,
Charlotte Seymour
Editorial Assistant
