Tuesday Tales - Silent
Tuesday Tales Time !!!!
So, every week several authors compose a short story or take a scene from a WIP - all based on a word prompt.
This is this week's prompt is SILENT
To give you a little reminder, Tyson Gaspaldi receives the Brownlow Medal, Best and Fairest AFL player, but instead of Katie, it's his mother sitting next to him. He remembers how he had met Katie years earlier.
ENJOY!
He couldn’t get enough of that smile on her face. And her eyes. And then he felt his...

My guest today - Jennifer Rae Gravely
A warm welcome to Jennifer Rae Gravely, a fellow Astraea author to talk about her fabulous new release: Knight of the Dead
I’ve always loved words. As a child, I earned the nicknames motor-mouth and jabber jaws for my love of talking and telling stories. Later, as an avid reader, I wrote mainly to analyze. A triple major in history, politics, and English , I viewed life in terms of paper topics! Still, I played with writing short stories and poetry. Then life took over—I became a wife, m...

Check out my latest guest blog
This is what I came up with when Jeff asked me for a guest blog. I kinda had a funny moment I s'pose ... LOL
Jeff: Tell us about your latest book, Iris.
Me: Thanks, Jeff. The book’s titled Innocent Tears, set in Melbourne (Australia),
and tells the story of Nadine and her father Flynn –
Jeff: Flynn?
Me: Yes, you know, named after Flynn Rider from the movie Tangled.
Jeff raises his eyebrows
Me: Never mind. I suppose I should’ve named him after Rev John Flynn.
Jeff interrupts: Yeah, I know him. The Flying Doctors guy.
Me: Smiles. Exactly!
.... want to read the rest ... well come on over then .... you won't regret it!

Sweet Saturday Sample - 24/11/2012
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate you all taking the time, especially as I know how busy we all are nowadays.
I hope you enjoy this week's little sample from my current book "Innocent Tears".
With her child-sized suitcase and doll in arm, Nadine looked even smaller and frailer than the previous day. The lines of Flynn’s mouth tightened a fraction more as he spotted the little girl. Good grief, he was nervous. With only a few long steps he walked over to Teresa, William and Nadine. Like the...

“Flynn? Flynn!”
He dipped his head and shook it regretfully. “Yes, Mum, I’m still here.” He paused for a moment and then continued. ”Sarah’s parents came for a visit.”
The surprise was obvious by the moment of quiet. “Teresa and William?” she asked in disbelief, her voice an octave higher than usual.
