My 2 year old cyclamen didn’t flower last winter but after drying it outside again during its 2nd summer it was a lovely surprise to see flowering buds last month. Thought you might like to see it, Michael @mtgallagher.bsky.social

The 2nd early review for upcoming new fantasy novel The Honeymaker's Daughter is in:

"It kept me gripped, guessing and wondering all the way through. Pick up a copy of this excellent book. It's more than worth a read - it's a must-read." (Frederick K, author of The Enchanted School)
