And We Are Back…
Thank you for all the requests and inquiries about our absence. Every day for the last two years we have had dozens of people requesting access to A Voice in the Corner: even today. That’s thousands of you! I wasn’t that surprised in the first few weeks, but your requests kept on coming and that has played a big part in encouraging me to start again. I am sorry that I could not meet your needs, nor was I able to reply to you in person, but I assure you there has been no exclusive party going on without you. The whole project just stopped and went into aspic.
In the past our unique visitors got as high 16,000 in one day and when we closed the average was around 10,000 in a 24 hour period. I don’t expect to return to that level any time soon, if ever, after all, the world has moved on, but when I was dusting off the dashboard (the tech bit behind the scenes) I was shocked that in its time A Voice has had over 16 million visitors. I never stopped to consider just how staggering that was, not to say terrifying.
That sabbatical was rather longer than we intended and a lot has changed at Castle Black. Merging two households into our London home has been a challenge. Also we have both had to focus on the business of earning money.
I am not going to say too much now about our absence and the reasons for it; and many details will never be discussed here. But at some point I will explain some of it. Meanwhile Mrs Black is working on a blogging project of her own, hence her current absence here; more on that later.
It has been nine years to the day since I launched this blog, and with a post nearly every day, there are well over two million words here; more than half being my fiction. I don’t think I will be publishing here quite as often as I used to, but stories left hanging will eventually find their way to these pages, starting with the continuation of In the Service of the Wolf.
Some features will return, but some fiction strands will be continued exclusively via LSF Publishing.
On that note I want to thank all those who continued to buy my stories. There is some exclusive material, such as The Exit Bureau, which is not available anywhere else, and now sits alongside other material such as The Russell Corner and Magic, which are only available for purchase.
However, most of my material is still here and once again available and will be added to in the months that follow.
It is great to be back, please bear with me while I get my head around the new features of the CMS and remind myself how the old features work.

HI Steve,
Sorry to hear that – but bar three or four short stories, all copy appears here first and not all goes to the Library anyway – so this is the bigger resource. However, there are few stories that are only available if you buy them on Amazon or LSF Publishing – notably those mentioned.
Thanks for your kind offer – I would be interested yes, contact me and I will see what I can do about PDFs for any stray material you may have missed.
all the best DJ
Missed you guys, glad you’re back
Welcome back you have been sorely missed.
I’m so happy you’re back. I missed this place.
Hi Svetlana, are you still blogging?

Nor you did … it has been awhile 😉
Hi Everyone,
