Well, I was going to Talk Like a Pirate today, but I got all flustered and lost it.
Billierosie has posted on her blog a review of Dark Enchantment, my latest short story collection, which makes me feel scared to read my own book. Oh, it's not a negative review - just the opposite. But faced with praise like "Janine goes beyond mere fetish, exposing our fatal flaws and secrets" I go bright red and don't know what to say. For a writer I'm terribly inarticuate! I don't have the words to describe what a privilege it is to be able to touch a reader's inner life like that, through my storytelling. That's all I ever wanted to do: tell stories. And pull people into the worlds within.
So, inadequate though my thanks are: Thank you Billierosie.
