  • Hope you’re all enjoying the weather. We’ve been in the garden a lot. Tomatoes and lettuce are growing well, along with spinach and radish. I had my writing magazine yesterday, so it’s going to be a great weekend catching up with latest news and views on the writing world. Have you read my latest book…

  • Getting on with it, and now taking a break from subbing to agents and publishers. Hello, everyone, it’s been a while since I blogged and the arrival of a snowstorm is as good a chance as any to get some lovely hand knitted sock pictures on my website, and a sunny picture of Mom, Lily…

  • Hello everyone, hope your journey into springtime is going well. The year is zipping along, and what possessed me to tell you last month that I read a book a month.

  • What a wonderful day, here in Warwickshire today. Blue sky, blossoms blooming and a lovely walk and chatter with my writing buddy and pal, Patsy Davies. It so happened that she and hubby Gary were passing through the leafy county and stopped off to look around Kenilworth Castle. Time flew by and the writing chatter…

  • I’ve made one of my own. Reason being, we had some banana loaf that needed eating. It’s now the base of the trifle with some blackberry jam on. Then a layer of mandarins, red jelly and custard, with the topping you see here. One good thing about the weather getting colder, is that we have…
