You can read "Circle of Stones" along with photographs that inspired Jo at Jo's own website.

A well-deserved prize, Jo.

    Thanks very much, Carol. It's a delight to be in the prize list again...the coordinator and I had a laugh about our 'annual phone call'...she even remembers the budgies (who have a habit of flying around shrieking when I'm on 'significant' calls..hmm, how do they know? ;) xx
