It arrived this morning - all golden and honey warm.

Alike As Two Bees - a novella set near Athens in the mid 4th century BC - is about an apprentice sculptor called Philon who wishes to use the most beautiful horse he has ever seen as a model for a masterpiece. Her rider, Hilarion, is not beautiful at all but has a cheery grin that Philon can't ignore. Meanwhile Hilarion would be fancying the pants off Philon, if he was wearing any, but will settle for him in a chiton.

Ancient Greece in all its sunlit, olive shaded glory with some gentle loving thrown in for the heck of it.

The above blurb, of course, isn't the offical one but i need to get the spellings checked on that so it will do for now.

I'm pleased. Can you tell I'm pleased?

Yes, I know: - I think I'll re-read what I have of that old Wraeththu thing on Monday and start cutting it up for my piece for that anthology. Monday is a holiday here, and so is Tuesday. I want to have something that can be shown by the end of them. Perhaps not finished -- I need to write the part with the ending and the punch-line yet -- but definitely a presentable beginning.

And I will beta when you're ready. :D

Oh, that is lovely of you! Yes, I would very much appreciate that.

And I appreciate that you read the beginning of the book to have context!
