Susan Jones writes romantic drama with a touch of humour, and historical sagas as Lydia King. She lives in North Warwickshire, and loves walking through the beautiful woodlands where she lives, and gardening and reading are her pastimes.

The travelling writer came to the N.E.C. and that’s in my radar, so how lovely that I was able to pop along and meet

my lovely blog buddy, writing buddy and critique buddy. Alright, you get the gist, I was thrilled to have a coffee and cake with Patsy.

Suzy and PatsyWhen we met, it felt like meeting a family member, and as if we’d been friends for a lifetime. I was looking around, and heard Patsy’s voice, then we went, ‘yahayyyy,,,,, ‘ like on long lost family. Great fun.

I call Patsy the Travelling Writer, because that’s what she does, and is. How glad am I that she and Gary were at the show up the road. I thought perhaps we’d have a little chat for a while, and before you know it, two hours had passed, and they were almost closing.

Great respect for Gary, who didn’t moan that I’d hijacked Patsy when they were checking out motor homes. And we didn’t really sprout flowers out of our head with happiness…

    Looks like you had a great time!

    Yes, Sally, and jaw ache after as well….. Great to chat in real life, and know that the person on the computer is real, and more smashing in real life as on the screen:)) Only trouble with me, when I’m happy I talk louder and louder until my voice was bouncing off the walls and ceiling of the N.E.C. Don’t think anybody noticed though.

      We got away with it, I reckon!

        Yes, we did. Nobody chucked us out did they?

    Patsy’s getting around all her blogging friends – Gary was very patient when Tracy and I met up with her too ( he did get cake though).

      It was great to meet up with Patsy, Wendy.

    How lovely that you were able to meet up – I’m sorry I missed the chance when Patsy was in Scotland!

    1. susanjanejones Avatar

      Yes, that’s a shame, Rosemary. I have a feeling the travelling writer will be up Scotland again one day.

    It was brilliant to meet you too, Suzy. I do like the name travelling writer, it’s certainly been appropriate this year and as you’ll have gathered might be even more so in the future.

    ps you weren’t supposed to mention the cake – that’s why we disposed of the evidence before the photo! Oh well as you have I might as well admit to the chocolates too. Thank you they were delicious. Yes, were, not are – but I did let Gary have some.

      Oops, cake? What cake…..

    I think the flowers sum up the mood of your meeting perfectly!

      Thanks, Linda, they do don’t they? Glad you popped in.

    Great that the two of you met up. I can imagine how much you had to talk about too. Love photo! 🙂

  10. susanjanejones Avatar

    Yes, Jan, I’m glad too. And we did have a great chitter chatter and your name came up of course, and how it will be nice when we meet you as well. I like the photo as well, even though it highlights the overdosing of biscuits lately:/000)
