New Year New Books Tour and Giveaway

For the next two weeks the NYNB 2016 Tour is happening. It started on 12th January and will last for two weeks.

Blog tour coordninator, Ama et Bemma hosted the first stop here! There is also a Giveaway, so check it out.

I will be hosting posts of independent authors that are completely new to me so I hope a lot of people can discover some new writers and their books over these next two weeks.

My first author spotlight is on Eva Flyn and her book The Renegade Queen

New Year Writing After Christmas

As Christmas draws nearer, I start thinking beyond the presents, Christmas films and the mince pies. I start thinking about the year ahead and whether I'll bother with New Year's resolutions.
[image error]
The word resolution seems so big and important and, quite frankly, a little daunting. So, instead, I tell myself my resolutions are really just little changes or minor improvements - nothing to worry about. If I don't do that, I'll find myself stressing over them and worrying that I won't live up to the s...

How do you win Christmas?

It's easy really, all you have to do is: Cook the best Christmas dinner any person could ever cook. Buy the best presents in the world and have your family crying with joy into their eggnog because of your spot on buying choices. Have the most tasteful Christmas decorations both inside and outside your house. Not gain an ounce of weight and stuff your face on al the Xmas fayre going for the whole season.

Lost In Writing

I've found myself lost in many things before; music, fog, the one way system in Richmond. This time I've been lost in my writing and I'm finally coming up for air. So, apologies for being off line for so long. I'm sure I've missed loads and I can't wait to play catch up on what's been happening with everyone.

During my absence, I have, however, managed to complete my first full length novel. The long awaited Natalie's Getting Married, transformed itself from a three part novella trilogy to som...

Who Needs a BFF Anyway?

I remember when I was a little girl in the playground at school. Back then, the game of Kiss Chase was all the rage. I think you get the idea: the boys chase the girls and try to kiss them. Sometimes it was the other way round but my school wasn't that progressive. In our playground there were no iPads, pods, or games to be played on a mobile phone. No. We made our own fun back then and who better to have fun with than your best friend. Mine was called Gillian Cackett (and no, I didn't make t...
