Radio Ga-Ga
Loving presenting my new radio show on Vectis. Wit, Wisdom and Pratfalls is all about us. People. And the myriad roles we all play every day – mother, brother, lover, son, daughter friend, foe. We’re at once wise and witty but occasionally we experience that banana-skin moment when we fall flat on our faces. Others might laugh but provided we can laugh at ourselves we’re doing fine. That’s what life’s about – being happy, laughing when the chips are down and smothering them in mayonnaise when we’re on the up!
Listen live to what some brilliant minds – writers, poets and thinkers have to say. Click on Vectis Radio every Friday at 1pm. We’d love to hear from you too. So why not phone in and join in the conversation. Speak soon!

Talking to That’s Solent TV at Isle of Wight Literary Festival
This year’s Isle of Wight Literary Festival was the best ever. A big thank you to all the volunteers and organisers who gave their time to make it happen.
I loved every second of it. the audience at my show – A Woman’s Wit, Wisdom and Pratfalls – was wonderful, warm and welcoming. We had a great time, laughing and sharing the emotional hiccups that pull us up sharp everyday of our lives.
If you missed it, here’s a flavour of what it’s all about. See you next year!

GUILT 5* ‘Unbelievably gripping’
Honoured to stop-over at Janelle Kahele’s site today. I enjoyed our chat and appreciated her taking time out to review my thrillers: The Killing of Mummy’s Boy and Guilt. Those 5* and 4* ratings lit up my day!

‘A hell of a thriller’. Wicked price. Just 99p.
Nothing perks an author up more than spotting a shiny new review. Thank you to those who read and share their thoughts. It’s a labour of love and much appreciated. Keep turning those pages!
