Now, I’m a writer who likes to use their personal experiences, as well as nabbing those from some of my nearest and dearest, to influence their writing. And seeing as it’s been a ridiculously hot week, I thought I’d reminisce about my family holidays to Spain. We weren’t the sort of family to frequent theContinue reading

Let’s talk heroes and heroines, from a reader’s perspective. After all, this is where I started: reading and lots of it! I learnt a long time ago that literature is subjective and not everyone is going to think the same as you. It’s both a little frustrating but also pretty fantastic. I would love toContinue reading

One of the reasons I love romance so much is because it can encompass a range of relationships, not just the one between the heroine and hero, hero and hero or heroine and heroine (or multiple if that’s your thing). I enjoy reading about the connections between parents and children, friends, enemies, siblings, cousins, theContinue reading

Now, I don’t know about you, but I am a master at tearing myself to pieces. Some days I achieve my self-annihilation quicker than others, but all in all, I can guarantee I will have made a mental list of all my failings, flaws and bad choices at least half a dozen times within anyContinue reading

This week coming I’m due to post my ‘Thoughtful Thursday’ question asking whether you would give someone a second chance after a bad first date.

Regardless of what they try to sell you in heartsContinue reading

Now that some people might have taken the time to read some of my ridiculous stories from my past, or even my first novel, Learning Italian, I thought I might attempt to answer some typical questions one might ask an author. So, in the absence of having any questions myself, I took to the goodContinue reading

If you’ve read any of my past blogs, you’ll know that I usually try to put a comedic quirk to my memories of falling for my husband. However, today I have to warn you, I’ve gone a little heavy with the emotions. You see, the other day, week, month, (who knows when you’re stuck inContinue reading

I’m going to try something different this week, so bear with me. My third book is currently with my editor, one which I’m hoping to release later in the year. It’s another romantic comedy but deals with a number of serious themes, a few of them being social anxiety, low self-esteem and generally feeling inadequate. Continue reading

First dates. In all honesty I am not a font of knowledge when it comes to this area of romance. You may well have guessed as much seeing as I met my husband in Year 7 at secondary school. However, we did go through a long winded on/off stage whereby I went to university inContinue reading
