I recently ran a five-day free promotion for Oak and Mist, the first book in my Ambeth series.

Sue Vincent – Writing Prompt – The Fairy Door
It’s Thursday, so I normally post a door as part of Norm 2.0’s Thursday Doors Challenge (and I may yet still, it’s Thursday for a little while longer yet). But Sue Vincent over at The Daily Echo posted a writing prompt based on this picture she took of a mysterious door in a stone wall,Continue reading “Sue Vincent – Writing Prompt – The Fairy Door”
Wednesday Wander – Museum Of Traditional Architecture, Dubai
We went to Dubai a few years ago, taking several days as a stopover to break up the lengthy flight between Australia and the UK.

Thursday Doors – Silves, Portugal
This week’s door photograph was taken in the town of Silves, Portugal. Carved wood and curved metalwork make this quite an ornate door, yet the flyers casually shoved underneath add a prosaic touch, as do the jumble of wires overhead. Located in the south of Portugal, Silves was a Caliphate from the 8th to 13thContinue reading “Thursday Doors – Silves, Portugal”
