I just watched this year's Christmas Eve ghost story. A bit late I know! It was very spooky and atmospheric.

A Ghost Story for Christmas - Woman of Stone

Edith Nesbit recounts the chilling tale of newlywed Victorians Jack and Laura and the legend of two marble tomb effigies, who are said to rise each year and walk.

Why not tell some ghost stories this Solstice? Here's one from 1907, which may be even more terrifying beneath its surface. . . .

“…no explanation, no logical coherence…” @katehandheld #ENesbit

The indie publisher Handheld Press has made regular appearances on the Ramblings, as I'm a real fan of their beautifully produced books. As well as reprinted fiction, they've also released anthologies, biographies, nature writing, fantasy/sci fi and crime titles, to name just a few. Sadly, Handheld is coming to a close later this year, which is a huge shame; but they're certainly going out with a bang!

I paid my respects to author and poet, Edith Nesbit, today. Edith died exactly 100 years ago today, aged 65. She is buried in St Mary in the Marsh, Kent.
E. Nesbit is one of my favourite authors. Her imagination, her engaging style and her sense of humour were formidable.
