It’s just over a month until Dance with the Fae comes out. Usually I’m gearing up to do social media posts and blog tours but this time I’m adrift because at the time of querying, the organiser wasn’t sure the bloggers who take part on Twitter would be posting elsewhere. It’s a bit nerve-racking asContinue reading “Excerpt time and a bundle of nerves.”

Dance with the Fae- Cover v Cover
My editor recently got in touch to let me know that the cover for Dance with the Fae is changing. We spent a lot of time during the design stage going back and forth between combinations and settled on the one below. Now the colour has changed to this. I can’t decide which one IContinue reading “Dance with the Fae- Cover v Cover”
Thursday Throwback
Redeeming the Rogue Knight and Cats When a hero is in danger of coming across as unlikeable, received wisdom suggests giving him a ‘save the cat’ moment. It doesn’t literally have to be a cat, of course, but he should do something that reveals a soft, squishy, lovable interior under the shell of hardness or coldness,Continue reading “Thursday Throwback”
My Fair Lord and My Autistic Lady
In my author letter for My Fair Lord I shared some thoughts on Florence’s autism. Florence Wakechild speaks forthrightly to the point where she is considered rude. She answers questions literally and takes things at face value. She info dumps about champagne grapes at parties and becomes engrossed with the rules of society to theContinue reading “My Fair Lord and My Autistic Lady”
Happy Birthday to me!
Today marks the tenth anniversary of my first book being unleashed on the world. Those of you who have followed me from the start will remember that Falling for Her Captor was given a contract as a result of me entering it into Harlequin’s So You Think You Can Write contest. I thought at theContinue reading “Happy Birthday to me!”
Medieval Monday with Barbara Bettis
This week on Medieval Monday I’m delighted to share an excerpt from Barbara Bettis’ The Lady of the Forest. Paxton already must have arrived to spread his lies. Damnation. “This has all been a mistake,” he insisted. “You might well think so.” She edged closer as they spoke. Something about her hair—its remarkable color—danced atContinue reading “Medieval Monday with Barbara Bettis”
Romance on the Road
‘I’m glad I caught you, Elisabeth. I’ve got a proposal for you…’ Words to stir anyone’s heart. In this case not from Tom Hiddleston (I keep hoping) but the librarian at Macclesfield Library where I do my Tuesday morning writing session. She asked me if I would be interested in taking part in the RomanceContinue reading “Romance on the Road”
Valentine Giveaway
It’s the season of romance (unless you’re cynical and Northern like me). To celebrate Valentine’s Day Harlequin are running a giveaway with a difference. All the authors taking part are giving away a copy of one of their own books and a secret surprise title by another author. I’m giving away a copy of TheContinue reading “Valentine Giveaway”
Medieval Monday- Rue Allyn
We’re nearing the end of the celebration theme (a new one with some exciting changes is coming soon) so I’m pleased to be able to share this excerpt by Rue Allyn from Knight Defender. Sent alone to Scotland to wed a wild Scot and serve the needs of her father and her king, Lady JessamynContinue reading “Medieval Monday- Rue Allyn”
Medieval Monday – Bambi Lynn
I love being able to share excerpts from such wonderful authors. Today I’m sharing Bambi Lynn’s Marek. Boring accountant, Kitty Petty, struggles to get through each day one at a time since the brutal murder of her husband. She spends every free moment caring for her young daughter, until the night she wakes to findContinue reading “Medieval Monday – Bambi Lynn”
