More ill-gotten gains

I have, once again, persuaded Philip Purser-Hallard to pay me cold hard cash to write a story. It's another City of the Saved short story (i.e., another spin off of a spin off of a spin off of Doctor Who) in an anthology entitled Tales of the Civil War which details events after death returns to the denizens of the City of the Saved (where all humans have ended up after their deaths and where, up until this point, they appeared to be immune to physical harm).
This time, it has to be said, the book I purchased for research (a biography of Anne Boleyn) cost more than I was paid. I think I'm currently running about evens on this "professional author" lark.

Again, I think that's going to take time, and will partly depend on my mental health and self-confidence.
