Blog update:
Hi everyone,
I wanted to apologise for not being around for the past few weeks as regularly as you are used to. There are no excuses other than my mind has been a turmoil and I haven’t been sleeping well. I have also been more dormant on my social media platforms and am working on finding my safe headspace to enable me to re-engage – this is my first step!
I have this evening added two more session updates to my ‘Therapy & Me’ Blog page and it has just dawned on me that perhaps I should be posting my updates as new blog posts as I write them – so I plan to do that after I finish writing this entry. (I will however still add it to the ongoing blog page so that it is there as a reference for anybody who feels it is helpful).
I don’t want to bombard you with all the entries at once so I am going to begin by adding posts 1-4 tonight and then posts 5-8 tomorrow.
I hope that you forgive my absence and I look forward to engaging more with my audience over the coming weeks.
Please reach out if you feel the need – I’m only too happy to read comments and get back to you.
On a more positive note, I have managed to begin writing again – building my word count on my current Work-In-Progress to just over 17,000 words. I have to say it is coming along nicely although getting into the minds of my deviant characters is a challenge.
The final chapter in The Magical Adventures of Poppy Trilogy: The Edge of Darkness is due for release soon and I will post more about this once I have all the details for the launch but for now – reserve your copy by visiting the relevant page (CLICK BUTTON OR LINK BELOW) and drop me an email with your request so I can get back to you.

Its just coming up to 23:54 here in the wet and chilly Garw Valley following a magnificent bout of thunder earlier but I still managed to get some steps in, despite the rain – aren’t umbrellas a wonderful invention!!! LOL.
Anyway, time to hit the sack before I’ve worked through the night yet again and am being hailed by my little granddaughter who is staying over for two nights in a row – how will I survive?
Take care everyone – until tomorrow!!!

If money were no object…
I think that if money wasn’t an issue and all my financial worries disappeared overnight, the first thing I would do after making sure my daughters are good is to open my own bookstore.
I don’t mean a virtual one but an actual one.
It would be open from dawn until dusk every day, sell only books by independent authors and host a range of genres, and visitors would stay a while, meet other readers and authors, enjoy their purchases with a cup of coffee, and a slice of cake.
It would have areas where children can immerse themselves in stories that spark imagination and curiosity.
It would be filled with comfy seats, beanbags, and large cushions where visitors could make themselves at home.
Somewhere people love and want to congregate, where people return feelings about the books they’ve read.
And when I shuffle off this mortal coil, I want it to live on and make a difference to the generations that come after me.
