Merry Christmas.

Blogfests are such fun and if you've never entered into the spirit of blogfesting you've been missing out. I've entered a Deja Vu blogfest, in which we post an old post from some time ago. It's just for fun, and the one I've picked is a panto theme. If you take a look out of interest, take note of the characters names!  ;)…

There was an interesting piece in Writers' News this month, where lit agents were asked if they thought chick-lit was dead. The conclusion I drew from the listed input was  50-50 yes/no. Some of the lit agents seemed to think that now that hard-times/recession is/are upon us we're looking to more realistic down to earth dreary household/torn dramas. If that is so, then we'll be bucking past trends of looking to escapism in a world of glitz and glamour when things get tough and times are…

Select an exciting read for your Christmas Kindle, put your feet up and enjoy Alina and Harry's trials as they fall in love. Who would ever have thought that her father would threaten to kill Harry simply because his name was Scott? or that the infamous Border Reivers would get involved? But…

Hi everyone. I've been out of action for a while due to a very nasty cold/flu but I'm finally back in the land of the living and feeling Christmassy. I've posted a new blog called Christmas Memories and in it, I tell you one of my favourite Christmas memories from when I was young. So, between Christmas shopping and decorating the tree, why not grab a cup of something nice and join me. It may bring back some of yours. Here's the link :…

Hi everyone. This week's Find Out Friday post is with Henri Gyland, recently signed author, who proves that skill and persistence can pay off.

Hello,

I've just written a blog post about using photographs to bring scenes to life when writing a novel.

Most of my novel is set in Siena, Italy where I lived in 1994. I've included a few photos from Siena explaining how I've used them to set scenes.

This is a lovely, warm interview, just like Sue, who somehow manages to fit 28 hours into 24.

Thanks for reading.

Just listening to Steve Wright on BBC Radio 2 this morning and he mentioned a survey done of people who had fallen in love "at first sight" i.e. on their first date. They were asked what signs they had experienced that made them think that they had fallen in love straight away. Six things emerged that were reported. I am afraid I didn't hear who carried out the survey. These were:

-- a shiver down the spine

-- feeling an emotional connection, like you know the person well (even…

Ladies, I know that we don't often think of science as a romantic topic, but since my book (soon to be "books" because my second romantic novel comes out on the 6th!) deals with time travel, I've had to spend a lot of time thinking about the science involved. So, I'd like to share with you this post that I wrote for my "Nerd-girls, Romantics and Time-travelers blog," and hope you'll bear with me, since it isn't about romance fiction. I just thought you'd get a kick out of…
