Recommended Reads

I have a new feature in the cafe now - Recommended Reads.

It's no secret that I'm a rapacious reader. This new feature is all about the books that I have read which have truly touched me, usually because they have, in some way, broken the mould - whether powerfully emotive, ingenious, addictive or inspirational, they are all highly recommended. The books recommended are not all m/m romances and #LGBT fiction - many of them are but not all.

This series will build up over time. I'm currently trawling the archives for books that I read pre-2014, because since 2014, I have used Goodreads to catalog my reading, and it's a damn sight easier to find them!! In the meantime - my first three recommended reads are all from the last three years.

Click here for the current recommendations.

I have a new guest under the spotlight for the next two weeks - Susie Kearley.

Susie is a freelance writer who I admire very much, and I hope you enjoy getting to know her just as I have.

CLICK HERE for the feature.

You can still access the previous spotlight guest features - they are all under the Cafe Arte menu tab. There are a growing number of guests in the cafe these days, and many more to come.

Jonathon Goodfellow's  1st  Abstract Art  Show

2/2/2016

0 Comments

 
My friend Jonathan Goodfellow is staging his first solo abstract art show, and he is running two campaigns to generate funds to help defray the costs of the show. One of the campaigns is donation based (with appropriate tax deduction where available) and the other is pledge based with rewards - links are here -

http://tinyurl.com/hdt2hw7

The Carter Seagrove Project has donated to both campaigns as a sign of absolute belief in this man's work, his journey and the messages of possibility that he tries to convey.

Jonathan has a video that explains everything much better than me -

 Please support Jonathan, his show and his work.

Bless you.
