@boudiccapress, @NiciSaltonWest, I ordered the Disturbing the Body anthology on the Boudicca Press website in December, and haven't received my book or heard anything. Have tried to get in touch via email. Please could you let me know what's going on?

@JulesJumping Thanks for sharing Julie. I'm actually starting a Creative Writing MA at Brighton (which is where I live) on Monday. It's a major adjustment from travelling to Goldsmiths once a week but I'm at peace with it. Looking forward to reading your books!
