Speechless in Cambridge

But not word-less...

[livejournal.com profile] deborahjross, who is a brilliant writer and a wonderful person who I admire hugely, just made me tear up by posting this. I can't begin to express how touched and honoured I am. And startled and embarrassed and all sorts of things. I look forward to her next post on this anthology, because it is fine and I am, in my own opinion, the weakest link therein.

And I realise I did a Bad Meme. It was all about words, really: there was no intention to check. That came with the phrasing. But I apologise anyway. Will do better in future.

That excerpt is glorious and has just bumped the anthology several rungs up my to-read list.

I was sucked in by the same meme, for exactly the same reason.

The other stories in it are fabulous.
