Get your copy here. ‘Help will come to you, Alma, you will not be alone.’ Accepting her new powers hasn’t been easy for Alma. Nor has findingContinue reading “New Year, New Book!

The Old Year Ends…
As the year draws to a close, I suppose it’s time to look back and consider how it was. For me, 2017 was a year of mixed blessings and a badly needed kickstart. I’d fallen into something of a rut, so being challenged and thrown out of my comfort zone, as I have been thisContinue reading “The Old Year Ends…”
The Wheel Turns, and a Cover Reveal!
Today was the shortest day, the moment when the wheel of the year turns towards light again. In the old ways it was called Yule, and marked a time of hope, when a spark of light would be lit both symbolically and literally to celebrate the turning of the year. I love this time ofContinue reading “The Wheel Turns, and a Cover Reveal!”
Autumn Leaves and Winter Work
It’s Sunday evening. The sky is washed with eggshell shades fading to blue, my cheeks still tingling from being outside. The working week awaits… and yet, the working weekend has just finished. I’m currently deep into the final edit and formatting of Under Stone, book four in my Ambeth series, with a view to publishingContinue reading “Autumn Leaves and Winter Work”
A Small Update
Life has been extremely busy of late. Part of it has been getting back into the routine of work and school and extracurricular activities, part of it has been all the writing I’m trying to cram in to every spare moment. For I am writing a LOT at the moment. Funny, the busier we getContinue reading “A Small Update”
Ironing, Oak Apples and Editing or, How I Survived A Writing Wobble
I had a bit of a writing wobble earlier this week. I’ve just begun editing Under Stone, the fourth book in my Ambeth series. It recently returned from a professional edit, and so I was taking suggestions and beta read comments on board, polishing the final crevices and tidying up punctuation and prose, ready toContinue reading “Ironing, Oak Apples and Editing or, How I Survived A Writing Wobble”
Reading, Writing, and Silver Fish Jumping
It’s been a little while since I’ve written an update kind of post, and so it seemed like today would be a good day. A Thousand Rooms is currently available to read and review via NetGalley, and was recently in their Summer Reads newsletter. So far, so good. I’ve also been asked, via a NetGalleyContinue reading “Reading, Writing, and Silver Fish Jumping”
A Sad Break-Up…
How is everyone this Monday? We’ve just had a lovely warm weekend here in the UK, a real taste of summer (or perhaps all the summer we are going to get, according to some!). I’ve been out and about quite a bit lately, visiting some wonderful places, but have one small problem. My iPhone hasContinue reading “A Sad Break-Up…”
Back To A Working Week
It’s a new year, and a new era for me, as I’ve just returned to office work after more than a decade working freelance. My daughter is older now and soon won’t need me to take her to school any more so, when an opportunity came up, I took it. I am still writing andContinue reading “Back To A Working Week”
Walking A Tangled Path
I’ve been a bit quiet on the blog front of late. Partly because I think I’m still recovering from the Thirty Day Writing Challenge, partly because I’ve actually been recovering from a nasty lingering cold that’s been running rampant around here (even the Queen had it), and partly because I’ve been trying to untangle theContinue reading “Walking A Tangled Path”
