Bertha’s World
a different way of seeing
Bertha’s World a different way of seeing is my newsletter for readers and writers.
Newsletters are a monthly digest of content-rich material, usually 1200 to 1500 words.
They include commentaries and musings on stories, books, genres, events and there is a small non-fiction corner with related trivia.
See the archive below for older newsletters.
