November 1st was launch day for the anthology Call To Arms, which showcases some awesome LGBTQ stories set in or around the Second World War.
I’m proud to have a story included – ‘The Man Who Loved Pigs.’ Here’s the description:
When MI5 wireless operator Mike Bernsey meets a stranger in the London Blitz, it feels like something special. Eddy’s unforgettable. But for Mike, there’s no love without betrayal.
You can read a bit about the background to my story in a post on Charlie Cochrane’s blog:
Guest Author – Megan Reddaway
There you’ll see me answering the questions:
– What inspired this story?
– Do you have a family connection to World War II?
– Is there a local connection in the area where you live to WWII?
I had fun answering the first question without giving away any spoilers for the story!
