Dreams and Desires: A Mistaken Vignette
At over 300,000 words, Mistaken was a tad long when I finished writing it. Something had to go if I didn't want to rival Tolstoy for page count. The first things to be axed were the dream scenes. I do love a good dream sequence; you can show so much about a character's innermost thoughts … Continue reading Dreams and Desires: A Mistaken Vignette

Unofficial Cover Reveal
As I'm sure most authors will attest, writing is an all-consuming vocation. When I'm at my computer, immersed in my make-believe world, I lose all track of time. Occasionally my kids will wander in to ask a question, and I will remind them, somewhat irately, not to interrupt Mummy when she's working. Only later, once I've resolved whatever syntactical … Continue reading Unofficial Cover Reveal
