Not an achievement in itself but I visited the set of the TV series that’s being made out of one of my books, despite 11 years of rejection by agents and publishers, five novels that more-or-less tanked and once being told I’m “not really a storyteller.” That was a good day 😊

If whoever wins this stack doesn’t have the first book in the Sweetpea series, please @ me in and I’ll send you that one as well. Seems only right to have the full set. #InBloom is book 2, #DeadHead is book 3 and #ThornInMySide is book 4 😊 🔪 🌸

The #publishingindustry has recently seen a rise in violent and criminal female characters. From Colleen Hoover's Verity to Bella Mackie's How to kill your family 🔪 there's a spike in women being the literary killers over men

This is the first sighting of my debut in a book shop, circa 2010. I always share this picture with my writing students to illustrate my point that you have to stay true to what YOU want to write, nevermind what the market is doing. #ToThineOwnSelfBeTrue #AmWriting

My edit for Sweetpea book 5 is back safely from the menders and my GOD it feels good to be a writer again. I’ve been quite depressed the last few weeks without Rhiannon by my side. Now, it’s like I’ve been reanimated ⚡️
