Letting Go

I'm feeling very sad on the day I should be celebrating. The Gene Pool has now been published - the fifth and final novel in the Nirvana series - so I should be dancing, eh? Instead, my guts ache with a feeling that I've managed to identify as loss. I miss my Nirvanan family. I've lived with them for about 20 years and it's not just that they've gone off into the world, like your kids leaving home. I have to recognise that I'm never going to be sharing space with them again.

I'm handing them all over to you now. Please be gentle with them - though they're tough enough to kick back if you're not.

Oh, and if you want the full set you can buy all five for under a tenner from you know where.
