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...

Back on the Facebook

Hello Readers,  I have got back onto the Facebook. Mainly to promote my books to be honest. HOWEVER, I hope to post the odd interesting thing to make it a bit more interesting. I do have a long history of love-hate with the platform (with all the platforms to be honest.) I don't mind the ads (well, of course I don't or I'd be a hyprocrite) but its all the random stuff, isn't it, that is so annoying. Stuff you don't want to see, and can't be bothered with. And all the fake stuff. Like the other day I saw a post which said there is a Golden Girls reboot with Tina Fey, Lisa Kudrow and others. Really, I thought. Why would you? The entertainment industry has done strange things... but really? So, as I do these days, I figured it was fake, and did not even bother to read more. Sure enough when I mentioned it to someone, they checked and it was FAKE. Even if it wasn't fake, you can not do better than Rose, Bea, Sophia and Blanche. YOU CAN NOT.  But I am not fake, s...

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...
