iBooks banner-love

iBooks rock! Here is a screenshot of the most gorgeous banner on the iBooks Store here downunder promoting the exclusive pre order for Return to Frazier Bay.  It's just lovely, don't you think? and, just quietly, it's not too shabby sitting next to La Nora either! The release date for Frazier Bay is May 3rd. All you have to do is click on the pic to take you to the iBooks Store for more info and ordering details.

My latest obsession

 I have recently been a bit obsessed with the practice of junk journalling. Junk jouraling! I love it so far. Its been around a few years and seems to have taken over a bit from from the scrapbooking of yore, but the thing I like about it is you use up all your stuff that is lying around. You can use all your rubbishy bits and pieces of paper and things. I like the tutorials of a lady called Leah with a channel called Thrifty Day , and I've had a go at it and I kind of really like doing it. Sometimes I feel a bit out of sorts (I blame hormones... or perhaps it is, rather, the lack of them!) and so I decide to cut stuff up and stick it on a page and I feel better. Therapeutic! I also think that because it is play and there are no rules and you can be as messy as you like, and start again if the page looks like utter rubbish, well, it is just so good for you. It's like being a kid and let's face it... we got to do all the cool stuff when we were kids. Why not , now we're ...

An old post

This is a blog I wrote for a now defunct pop culture site I used to contribute to, some years ago.   A friend was reading some fiction I’d written the other day and after telling me what she did like about it, commented, “But you’re no Jane Austen.”   The only Jane Austen I have read is “ Emma .” and it was read under duress at university. I consider myself a person of not massively low intelligence, but it took three reads to get my head around it. Interestingly, that paper was not only my first and only complete Jane Austen experience, but my first and only experience of analysing English literature. I did get an A but not without suffering a degree of depression as a result. Yes, I gained an appreciation for some things (Elizabeth Barrett Browning sonnets, oh my gosh!) but analysing Emily Dickinson was enough to sap the will to live right out of me. Fortuitously, at the end of that semester, I saw the movie Stargate on TV,  and promptly un-enrolled myself fr...

The tree

Already six days into February. What's been happening? The writing has been going well. I got sidetracked reading a partial I am hoping to submit to Harlequin and on reading the first 20,000 words, I loved the story. I'd written it a while ago and I'm very happy with it, so I'll keep on with that, a small town romance set in the USA. I haven't submitted to a traditional publisher for a while, since I always get rejected, but I have high hopes for this one. And if it is rejected, I can see it doing well in my Frazier Bay series, a small town series set in New Zealand. I just have to change a few a lot of things. My fourth book in the Dating Daisy series is coming along as well and I'm looking at a March release, while I work on another book as well. In home news,   I    one of the boys chopped down a massive, massive tree so the back yard is filled with branches and leaves. While I will miss the privacy, the birds who loved the tree, especially the Tui, and of c...
