2014 in review – Hope you enjoy this new blog!
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 380 times in 2014. If it were a cable car, it would take about 6 trips to carry that many people.

Review by Jackie Parry!
A lovely review 5# received today. Many thanks for taking the time to write and post Jackie Parry.
This is a family saga, deeply immersed with friendship, romance, life, love, tragedy, and so much more. It is captivating right from the start, and it doesn’t let you go.
The protagonists’ lives reflect real life; they effortlessly show how different corners are turned and the decisions that are made can lead us to unexpected places.
With dark secrets, heartbreak, calamities, laughter and tears, this book will carry you through each emotion as if you are there. The female bonding of extraordinary characters will have you smiling at the pages and wanting more. You’ll suffer with them too.
All this, coupled with simmering love and immeasurable bravery, means that you won’t be able to put this book down. It is a beautifully woven story with magnificent descriptions that provide a vivid journey. The meaningful characters, intertwined with such reality, stitched together with a few surprises along the way, made me look forward to picking this book up each night.
The ending had me in tears; tears of every emotion; it is written with such powerful prose – the nearer I got to the end, the further away I wanted it to be. I’ll be reading more from Rochelle Carlton.

SUNSHINE AND THE FALL OF THE TACKY TREE
A mass of foil, tinsel and the twisted foliage of our tacky plastic tree is safely tucked away in a cardboard box. One day of gluttony has left us content, and our fridges bulging under the pressure of leftover salads and the half eaten legs of various delicacies. Our recycle bin is full of empty bottles that bear testament to a day of overindulgence.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas however you celebrated it, and wherever you are in the world.
http://www.amazon.com/Quilt-Unravelled-Rochelle-Carlton-ebook/dp/B00MCV1BO4 A little bit of Joanne lives in all of us at some stage of our life.
Excerpt from The Quilt, Unravelled. Joanne grappled for words to put an end to this conversation, a reason to excuse herself without further jeopardizing her employment and the words to help her regain control over the direction he was steering her.
She needed to be careful, she repeated the word, breathe. If Joanne mishandled herself and lost control she could find herself looking for alternative employment as well as a new place to live.
Joanne’s thoughts drifted again. How had things changed so quickly?
