Birthday Resolutions
Everyone has their milestones through the year, I think. For me, apart from New Year's Day, there's the start of the Autumn term, and, especially now I'm getting older, my birthday, which was yesterday. It's a time to reassess, I suppose, and to try to put some things in place for the following year. I… Continue reading Birthday Resolutions

Such a beautiful review of ‘Snowflakes…’ – I’m touched beyond belief. Thanks so much! x
Thrilled to join this blog tour.

As the snowflakes fall, new love blossoms…
When teacher Florence Ashton receives a surprise inheritance, she decides to make the life-changing decision to up sticks to the charming town of Willowbury in Somerset. With a new house and a new job, she’s too busy putting down roots to think about love.
Air Ambulance pilot Sam Ellis is definitely not looking for romance either, especially not on his doorstep. When Florence, his new neighbour, complains about his noisy housemate, he feels more cross than star-crossed.
But as the nights draw in and both find themselves thrown together in Willowbury’s seasonal drama production, will they overcome their differences and allow a little bit of winter magic to fall along with the snow? And what secrets will be revealed by the box of memories Florence finds in the attic at Bay Tree Terrace?

‘Borrowing’ the Bard for a Book – Fay Keenan
Ever since I read Alison May’s fabulous Much Ado About Sweet Nothing, I’ve been dying to have a go at incorporating Shakespeare’s original into a novel of my own.

It's had time to 'bed in', as it were, and this new normal is starting to feel, well, normal. Here, in no particular… Continue reading 20 reflections on the ‘lockdown’…
Musings on Point of View in fiction.
It occurred to me the other day, when trying to teach point of view in narrative to an exam class, that the notion of POV can be a bit confusing. Certainly, when I started writing, years ago, I didn't really consider the importance of maintaining a consistent point of view in a scene, and was… Continue reading Musings on Point of View in fiction.
Letting it fly…
You find me, once again, in that strange emotional position of having submitted one book to my publisher, Boldwood, whilst starting to work on the next one - as a contracted author, that's definitely the way of things! Usually, I'm quite pleased to send the manuscript on to agent and editor, but this time, I'm… Continue reading Letting it fly…
