Last night’s walk in the woods with my Hairy Boys 🥰
I’m in love with my new hand thrown indigo bowl, made by @katkintremaynepottery ✨ Two beloved pals gave me an @inkandpage__ voucher waaay back in August, for my 50th birthday ... and because of #youknowwhat I’ve only just been able to use it. The bowl is a small thing of beauty and I’ll always think of my writing group pals J&J when I look at it ❤️
For me, the second draft of a novel is always the hardest, but it’s where, my brilliant editor @samanthaeades tells me, my writing really comes alive. This past year, lockdown really messed with my focus - BUT, after a month beside the sea in Dorset, I feel my energies rising and my desire to write returning once more. Wish me luck ... I’m going in! ❤️ @trapeze_books
🎉 HAIRCUT! Feeling fairly jaunty tbh (and lbs lighter in the head department 😁) 🎉
Summer flora and fauna in this English country garden 🌱🐾🥰
Oh wow, I've just spotted my latest thriller #33Women is a June 99p Kindle deal! Big thanks to everyone who's already read & rated it (and pls do pass this offer on to any other book-loving pals 😘🙏📚)
To ease you back into work after the long sunny weekend, here’s some soothing dachshund ear-flap action ☀️🐾 #Leonard
When I’m working out my novel plot knots, sewing is like a creative meditation for me, allowing me to zone out and tune into the story I’m trying to write. This month I’ve been wrestling with plot while scrap-busting to make mini pinwheel quilted cushions with fabric leftovers from my new curtains. The story is not yet completely sorted ... but it’s getting there! 🧵🪡✍️
