Narrelle M Harris: writer | editor | songwriter | crafter
Words are like oxygen
This morning I picked up a large (and surprisingly slippery) pile of bookmarks ahead of my attendance at the Romance Writers of Australia conference, Love Gone Wild, being held this weekend in Brisbane. This will be my first RWA conference, and I’m looking forward to learning more about my fellow members and about the world of writing romance (and how […]

» Read moreWe’ve just tipped over into July, but I have one more Happy June reading review to share! It must be obvious to the meanest intelligence by now that I am – and have for a long time been – a devotee of Sherlock Holmes, the best and wisest London detective I have ever known, who is also “the most incurably […]
» Read moreMy Happy June reading has included one non-fiction book – Saroo Brierley’s extraordinary story of how he finally rediscovered his home and family in India, 25 years after he became lost as a five year old and was adopted by the Brierleys in Tasmania.

» Read moreMy June of Happy Reading continues! And it’s worth noting that Happy Books are not only found in the zhuzh of magic-infused Regency romances by Emily Larkin, the deeply satisfying verve of Fake Geek Girl or the delight in the release of books I loved. Happy June reading also resides in collections of amazing SF like Defying Doomsday, a Twelfth […]
» Read moreCatching you all up with some of my Happy June reading, because part of it was catching up with all the Baleful Godmother stories by Emily Larkin I hadn’t yet read before launching into Ruining Miss Wrotham!

» Read moreI’m still reading only happy books for June, but a thing that made me happy recently was discovering that Gillian Polack’s The Wizardry of Jewish Women was getting a reissue with a new publisher! The book was originally published by Satalyte Publishing, but not long after it was launched, the press had to close down. As the book was no […]
» Read moreAs mentioned in my review of Ruining Miss Wrotham, I’m on a kick of reading only happy books for the month of June, as an antidote to the bleakness of the world and some deeply disturbing and unhappy books I’ve read in the first half of the year. Along with more of Emily Larkin’s Baleful Godmother series, which I’ll review […]
» Read moreRuining Miss Wrotham is the fifth in Emily Larkin’s Baleful Godmother historical romances. Like the splendid Unmasking Miss Appleby before it, it’s set in the Regency period and follows the story of a descendent of a woman who used a faerie wish to grant her female descendents a wish of their own on a significant birthday.
