โ€œJakey - Billy said heโ€™s no feart of you and that he snogged yer wee sister Mary up a close!โ€, Francis blurted out. Francis didnโ€™t know what snogging was, but he felt sure it must have been a bad thing........

Glasgow Tales is becoming more like a magazine since I've added crosswords. So how about a daily horoscope?

A fellow calling himself Khonsu will be 'casting' a horoscope (is that the right term?) and lucky numbers each day, from today.

"The number 9 to Auchenshuggle tramcar trundled its way slowly along Argyle Street. The beam from Its cyclops headlamp made the wet cobblestones glisten and shimmer in the twilight of the winterโ€™s evening. The rain had just stopped and the streets of Glasgow seemed to have been scrubbed and cleaned with the fresh rainwater....."

that have readers who follow their recommendations and best-seller lists, can do a lot of harm to struggling whose books these critics ignore or give negative reviews to.

But what if these are enthusing about a book that doesn't exist?

This best-selling novel was a total hoax!
