Reviews

‘Invisible’s got an excellent, tense plot, shifting between the two main characters, with a good number of surprises along the way. Poulson always has great, strong women characters, with real lives and feelings . . .  I liked the fact that the depictions of violence and injury were realistic without being over-detailed or gloating . . . It was a pleasure to find a book that did the excitement, the jeopardy and the thrills without putting off this reader . . .  a very good read for anyone.’

I’m a guest on The First Two Pages

Posted on Mar 8, 2022 in Art Taylor, CWA anthology, Music of the Night, The First Two Pages | No Comments

Art Taylor is an award-winning short story writer, whose work I much admire. He has a blog called The First Two Pages for which he invites writers to discuss the choices that they made in writing the first two pages of a story or novel. And today that writer is me and I am honoured to be asked. If you would like to know the thinking behind the first two pages of ‘Some Other Dracula’ (recently published in the CWA anthology Music of the Night) and to read a taster, go to https://arttaylorwriter.com/2022/03/08/the-first-two-pages-some-other-dracula-by-christine-poulson/

Art also has a story, ‘Love Me or Leave Me: A Fugue in G Minor,’ in the anthology and it is an absolute cracker.
