Dolly Topping
Welcome to Nether Diddling — an English village where everybody knows everybody, everybody knows everybody else's business, and even the smallest bit of mischief is unlikely to remain private for long.
Dolly Topping writes warm, humorous village fiction filled with eccentric characters, friendships, rivalries, animals, community events and more than a little unexplained mischief. From village competitions and church gatherings to peculiar happenings that soon have the residents talking, life in Nether Diddling is rarely as peaceful as it ought to be.
These are gentle, character-driven stories where much of the fun comes from the villagers themselves — their friendships, disagreements, suspicions and inevitable interference in one another's lives.
If you enjoy cosy English village settings, recurring characters, harmless mischief and plenty of humour, come and meet the residents of Nether Diddling.
Just don't expect to keep anything secret for very long.

Justin Quinn - Coming early 2027
What happens when a good idea goes too far?
Justin Quinn writes speculative fiction that takes a seemingly possible idea and follows it into uncomfortable territory. His stories explore technology, scientific advancement, corporate ambition and the systems created to improve our lives — before asking what might happen when those systems begin to control them instead.
From promises of longer life and perfect communities to experiments that should never have been allowed to continue, these are stories about ordinary people caught inside extraordinary situations.
At the heart of each book is a simple question: what if this really happened?
If you enjoy thought-provoking fiction, unsettling possibilities and stories that blur the line between progress and control, take a look through the titles below. You might find some of those possibilities aren't quite as far-fetched as you'd like them to be.
