People have mentioned me!!

I’m so pleased – ELLEGirl have reviewed Be In The Place! It’s on page 19 in the issue that’s out now. (June; issue 26). They said the verdict is, ‘A feelgood, feels-like-your-there story of festival fun.’ How cool is that? I literally jumped around my living room!

Also, though I haven’t seen it yet, trade magazine, Publishing News asked for a photo of me to go with an article about my book. I’ll let you know if/when I find out which issue that will be in.

It’s all good. I’m happy!

I don’t know if you had the same thing when you were at school, but once a week or so, we’d all be handed a card and we’d have to write a story about the picture on it. I remember it quite clearly because I’d look forward to that lesson and I always wanted to write an amazing story, but I was never inspired by the picture so I was always disappointed with what I wrote….

Giving handmade Christmas cards

December 8, 2021

There’s something about sending handmade Christmas cards that’s loaded with all kinds of baggage. A few people will get it. My cousin will get it. My mother and sister-in-laws will get it, because I know they love to craft. Oh – I can actually think of two of my friends who are creative souls, but I don’t think the majority of people receiving my cards will fully understand why I do it….
