One of the best things about this writing business is getting boxes of books through the post. Who doesn’t like getting parcels, and filled with books. What could be better. Oh yes, getting a parcel filled with books with my name on them! These turned up today completely out of the blue which makes itContinue reading “I’ve got mail”

Celebrating
A very short post because it’s been a long week. In my other job I’ve had a lesson observation and am in the throes of rehearsals for the Christmas play (insert all the traditional cliches about 5 year olds in Nativities- they’re all true). On my non-school days (I hesitate to call them days off)Continue reading “Celebrating”

Fall Back in Time
Today on Twitter is the Historical Romance Network’s Fall Back in Time event Now, I love a good historical read and have done ever since I was little.

There had to be a lot lessContinue reading “A History of writing in One Object”
Casting the roles
Back long before I ever thought I’d get published I made a Facebook page for the book and amused myself by deciding who I would like to play the parts. For a bit of a distraction on a wet, gloomy Sunday afternoon here is the album. Hugh alternates between being Richard Armitage and Tom EllisContinue reading “Casting the roles”
Amazon delivery issues and alternative places to buy – a story with a moral!
An update on this post. Apparently Amazon had a slight hitch with the ordering data so didn’t order enough copies (I guess that means Richard Armitage didn’t buy them all up after all). They have now resolved this so should be able to dispatch copies soon. Thank you to everyone who has been patiently waitingContinue reading “Amazon delivery issues and alternative places to buy – a story with a moral!”
Features roundup
I’ve been featured on a few blogs over the past couple of weeks and have finally got round to collating them (now I can breath after publication date has passed). Today I’m on Unusual Historicals. http://unusualhistoricals.blogspot.co.uk There’s a giveaway for readers in the US who leave comments so pop over and have a look andContinue reading “Features roundup”
On deliveries- expected and unexpected.
On Wednesday my book is finally released. I’m finally going to let my baby wander out into the world and keep my fingers crossed that people like it (all reviews welcomed- Goodreads and Amazon. If you like it tell me, if you don’t, then feel free to lie…) It’s been a long road and forContinue reading “On deliveries- expected and unexpected.”
