If you’re a regular visitor to the website and are wondering what’s happened to the Daily Serial, Alex from Features is here to explain.


First of all, sincere apologies for those of you who have been tuning in each day for the latest instalment of “The Call Of The City”. It’s our current Daily Serial, and readers will have spotted that new episodes stopped going up after May 27 due to a number of factors.

But we do feel terrible that you’re not getting your daily dose of fiction and we’re working on it.

We’ve put plans in place to get this up and running again very soon – next week, hopefully. In the meantime, please bear with us! We know how much you’re missing it and it’s on the top of our to-do list.

We’ll announce it’s return, when it does happen.

Thanks in advance for your patience, but we’ll update you on how Grace’s news goes down with Meg as soon possible…


In the meantime, don’t forget to pick up the weekly magazine for plenty of great reading to keep you going!
