Brittany.
Carole Sutton isn't prepared for what she finds in her bed!
Jacquie Rogers has a historically musical treat for older
rockers in her Blast from the Past column.
L.J. Roberts convinces us to read 'A Corpse's Nightmare

August issue of Calamity's Corner.
Happy August, Everyone.
I hope all is well with you and your loved ones.
Since my novel, 'The Unhewn Stone' will be available
in ebook from 12th August, I'll give you one guess
who the featured author is, this month. :)
In the travel feature, American Romance author
Pat McDermott shares her romantic cruise to Alaska.
Our regular columnists LJ Roberts and Jacquie Rogers
present their book review and Blast from the Past,
respectively.
We have an Aussie pet that works with a team-mate
and my young Swiss friend, Janine Wipfli, sings on TV
in Altdorf (which just happens to be the setting for
my novel). This is a magical video, one you simply must
see. 7 minutes long, so it might take a little while to load.
And there is plenty more.
If you'd like to receive this fun ezine, just Subscribe to Calamity's Corner.
We'll be delighted to welcome you.
Until next month
Fond wishes
Calamity.
