reviews_and_ramblingsStarting from June 1, 2015, I will daily feature authors attending the three conventions I will join, Euro Pride in Munich (July), UK Meet in Bristol (September) and GRL in San Diego (October).
For the UK Meet in Bristol, September 11-13, 2015, today author is Suki Fleet: Suki Fleet grew up on a boat and as a small child spent a lot of time travelling at sea with her family. She has always wanted to be a writer. As a kid she told ghost stories to scare people, but stories about romance were the ones that inspired her to sit down and write. She doesn't think she'll ever stop writing them.
Her novel This is Not a Love Story won Best Gay Debut in the 2014 Rainbow Awards, and is currently a finalist in the 2015 Lambda Awards.

Lima Oscar Victor Echo and The Truth About Everything by Suki Fleet
Publisher: WildFlowers (June 10, 2015)
Amazon Kindle: Lima Oscar Victor Echo and The Truth About Everything
Growing up in a small village in Wales with a domineering homophobic father, Oscar has always believed he has to hide his real feelings.
He's hidden his heart from everyone, but most of all from his best friend, Jamie--who also happens to be the boy he's in love with.
But when a film Oscar makes about love and acceptance is chosen to be in the finals of a national competition, everything he's hidden about himself threatens to be revealed.
Now Oscar thinks he must make the choice between the life he knows and the people he loves, and the life he wishes he had.
But life holds far more secrets and promises than Oscar expects.
