Twice a year, we have a themed call for submissions from our pool of writers. I didn’t know what to expect when I asked for Good Bedtime Stories. Serendipity was at work.

Jeremy Page and Alison Goeller met in an online class on mystery writing and were eventually paired off to critique each other's work. They've kept in touch and occasionally send each other their work. Ingrid Rose and Peter Buckman are cousins.

These authors read for us in this episode:

Jeremy Page: The Ghost of Haversham Halt
Alison Goeller: Murder in Provence
Ingrid Rose: Power of Attraction
Peter Buckman: The Spectre of the Stones

Author, editor, and translator Jeremy Page lives in Lewes, England. He writes both prose and poetry. Jeremy is a former Director of Language Studies at the University of Sussex and the founder of the literary journal The Frogmore Papers.
