The Dating Daisy series in paperback

The Dating Daisy series, all three books, are in paperback for around U.S. $9.99 each!! Don't they look wonderful? I think they do, and I'm very happy with the covers, and the two different typefaces, and the way the images turned out.

The type face for the book title is different to the e-book as the one I used when I created the e-book cover wasn't available anymore, so I came up with an alternative. But I am very pleased with it indeed!

Of course, if you read Marrying Michelle you'll soon realise that the girl on the cover here looks nothing like Michelle, except for the fair hair, but that's often the way with covers. I did want a cartoon cover with a blonde-haired female, and this was the one that stood out. Which is fine, as the cover is meant to evoke more a sense of fun, of romantic comedy, rather than a lookalike protagonist. Plus Mitchy does get around on bike so that suits.

But all in all, I am pretty pleased with the covers on these paperback editions.

Two new books coming soon

It's been a while since I posted but I've been busy. I've been working on two new books. Shock! One is the next book in the Dating Daisy series, and also the next book in the Clearlake County series. Two new books!! I can hardly believe it myself, and I am enjoying them both. I'll reveal the cover for the new Daisy book soon!! In the meantime, well and truly into winter here in New Zealand. Even now, I'm got super warm socks on, and a scarf. If the nights are freezing, its out with the hot water bottle. And how good is a hot drink on a cold day? Life's simple pleasures.

Wet weather

It is starting to get cooler, praise be. There was a heap of rain one day this week, and by the time I got to work I was damp, to put it mildly. Soaked is overstating it but uncomfortably wet. Have you ever tried to dry off your trousers with a hair dryer?  I would have been there forever! If only, I thought, I had a spare anything at work, like a skirt even, but no. Nothing to change into. There was only a pair of pantyhose in case I ripped them, although I had stuffed spare socks and boots in my bag so I could have dry feet at work. It is worth noting that the very next day I went to work, I had completely forgotten that thought about spare clothes altogether and did not take spare anything for future weather events. In fact, I only remembered as I was thinking about writing this blog post. Hopeless. Given I’m trying to keep up my walking part-way to work to get in a good 40 minutes/steps, I should take along spare clothes to keep in my locker just in case. It really was uncom...

Dating Daisy

 FREE BOOK ALERT Yep, this weekend and until Monday, I am running a free book promotion for Dating Daisy . Meet Joel and Daisy in this second chance, professor hero, third time's the charm, romantic comedy.  So, what's it about? Daisy's a bookseller who goes on a TV dating show to drum up business for her ailing store. Not to win or anything like that, heaven forbid! Just to get her store's name mentioned on national TV a few times, since her beloved book shop is only weeks away from going under and she is desperate to do anything to stop that happening. Joel is a history professor who owes his best mate, the show's host, Rob, one massive favour, and Rob is calling that favour in: Be a contestant on the inaugural celebrity episode of Mystery Date . Except Joel Benjamin is no celebrity, and he sure isn't looking for love, not to mention his career is on the up, and going on a show like Mystery Date is simply, well, simply frowned upon . It could do his career mor...
