Weekend bliss

There I was, having a coffee on the bus, (warming my fingers in the process, it was very cold) and I automatically looked around for someplace to put the cup.

A cupholder on a bus! What an idea!

What a silly idea, actually.

When the bus stopped to pick up some new passengers, I snapped this hasty picture before the bus took off, lest the cup fall and clatter, and annoy everyone else. And potentially leave a puddle. Oh, the mortification if that happened. Oh, the stupidity!

So... the bliss of the weekend is upon me. 

I shall watch lots of sports. Olympics and rugby league.

I shall... get some writing done. I've been plotting out Frazier BayThree and think a title might be A Frazier Bay Reunion. A working title!

I am planning a roast dinner one night. It's winter. Its roast dinner weather. Scrumptious with leftovers. Perfect. A river of gravy!

I'll catch up on household stuff. 

And I'll listen to a few writerly podcasts. The SpaGirls have an interview with New Zealand author, Soraya Lane, so that is bound to be good. Their podcast is my favourite writerly podcast. 

After the working week, I love the weekend!

COVER REVEAL

Here is the cover for the upcoming book, STEALING STACEY'S HEART. I may tweak it a bit between now and the release date (scheduled for May 30) but I'll see. I'm very happy with it! I

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.

Excerpt for Captivating Kelly

Finally, we settled on a title. There was Kissing Kelly because the three books prior are Dating Daisy, Promising Penny and Marrying Michelle , but I'm not a fan of 'kissing' in the titles all that much. Captivating really seemed to suit so it might not be KK, and is CK instead but there it is. Captivating Kelly .  Read on for a sneak peak at the prologue. PROLOGUE  (draft) KELLY BROWN SUCKED in a deep breath as she walked down the corridor towards the staff cafĂ©, nerves attacking her with each step, and along with them, regret. The nerves because she didn’t know what awaited her. It would be small. That she knew. She’d asked for small. A cake would be nice, but that would be enough. She tended to avoid her own hype. The regret because all this might have been avoided. Might have been something she could have nipped in the bud, although she couldn’t even be sure of that. But whatever it was, it was, plainly and simply, sad. She felt sad. It took an effort at times not to lo...
