My husband is a Carlton supporter, so I used to support every team that played against them . Then in 2008 he demanded I choose one team and stick to it.
I chose Hawthorn
Buddy & Cyril were just so entertaining to someone who at that point really didn't care, I started following them. Now I'm an 8yr (I think) member of the club
Please don't hate me for my Hawthorn love <3

The best thing about being a writer is being able to listen to all the voices in my head and get them out!

About a fleeting meeting between a couple and the man's dismay at not following his instinct and letting the woman slip out of his life. A year later
About a fleeting meeting between a couple and the man's dismay at not following his instinct and letting the woman slip out of his life. A year later he starts on a mini odyssey to find the woman. His search twists and turns, and it seems that he is searching for something that is already gone.
I am excited by the possibilities for the success of this book; early reactions from various people have been very good, particularly my editor, who did everything in her power NOT to get involved (she concentrates on thrillers because she dislikes romances!) She changed her mind dramatically whilst editing and is extremely keen to champion the book.
Personally I think it is funny, insightful and well worth a read. Fingers crossed that you might agree. ...more

Danny Pearson is cruising through life on the edge of contentment—even in his marriage…
His wife seems distant, yet perfectly happy. They work on diffe Danny Pearson is cruising through life on the edge of contentment—even in his marriage…
His wife seems distant, yet perfectly happy. They work on different schedules and pass like ships in the night. But that’s how marriage is after so many years, right?
When Danny meets a mysterious girl, his idea of the meaning of love shatters at his feet…
She’s not extraordinary, but somehow she’s so much more than just another girl. When he catches her gaze, he knows deep in his gut that she’s the one—the love of his life. But being a decent guy, he holds his feelings in check, and there is no ulterior motive when he shares a coffee with her. As she leaves, she gives him a business card. That's all there is to it.
Her name is Ella. And after that, she is nothing more than a fond memory.
Danny puts Ella out of his mind and moves on with his life—until his world falls apart…When his wife confesses to having an affair and demands a divorce, his life is thrown into chaos. It’s a challenge adjusting to the single life, but it’s not impossible. As time passes, he continues to reminisce of his brief encounter with the woman he’s sure was his chance at true happiness.
How far is Danny willing to go in the pursuit of love? How far would you when, in all probability, you are only…
Chasing what’s already gone?

Keep going. I've written for about 20 years and one rainy afternoon on a whim I decided to submit my manuscript to one publisher because I'd just read an amazing book by one of it's authors... the rest is history.
Write for you. Write what you want, when you want. Don't try and force it and don't write what you think someone else wants to read. If you don't like it, how will anyone else?

The book I am currently working on started as a dream/nightmare that when I woke up I couldn't shake the feelings it had invoked. It was full on and consuming and left me a little breathless... that became the first 4 chapters

I get myself away from it. Go for a walk, go out to a restaurant and just people watch. I find I get more from watching people than I do from anything else
