The guest sharing her Five Photos with me today is author Ros Rendle. I have talked to Ros on social media for a long time now, but back in September I had the pleasure of meeting her in person for the first time, at the Romantic Novelists' Association annual York Tea. She really is as …
When Your Get Up and Go Has Got Up and Gone …
What a week I've had. Remember last week, when I told you I was going to change my life - one small step at a time - using my keywords, Mind, Body and Spirit? If you were paying attention, you'll recall that things didn't quite go according to plan, due to a rotten cold that …

Mind, Body and Spirit ~ it’s all about self-care in 2019. When I can get off the sofa.
Ah, how foolish we mortals are. We will insist on making plans, even when past experience should have taught us by now that something is bound to go wrong, and all our carefully-laid schemes will be thrown into disarray by circumstances beyond our control. It's true, isn't it? Well, it is for me. Sometimes I …
A Look Back at 2018 ~ a year of big changes and leaps of faith.
I meant to publish this post before the weekend but, typically, I was laid low with the dreaded lurgy: three days with practically no voice at all (my husband loved it!) a pounding headache and a soundtrack of sneezes and coughs. I suppose it made a change from Christmas songs. At least, today, I seem …

All Good Things Must Come to an End: Five Photos … A Thank You
Last week's Five Photos feature with Ros Rendle was the last in the series. I've had a wonderful time browsing through so many people's precious photographs and sharing their amazing memories with them but, over a year since it started, I feel it's time to say goodbye to this feature. I would like to say …

I "met" Jane many years ago through her wonderful website and pony book forum. My passion for pony books had reignited as …
It’s publication day for Belle, Book & Christmas Candle!
So, it's the first of December already! Can you believe it? The chocolate advent calendar will be coming out of hiding today (I hid it from myself and, even though I knew where I'd hidden it I was very good and didn't pinch a single chocolate) and thoughts will turn, if they haven't already, to …

A New Project and a New Partnership!
I'm very excited to announce a new project with my fellow writer and very good friend, Jessica Redland. Like me, Jessica writes contemporary women's fiction set in our beloved Yorkshire. We are both members of the Romantic Novelists' Association, and of the Write Romantics group. We meet up regularly for lunch or cake and always …
Five Photos … with JJ Marsh
When I first started out as a writer, one name that I kept reading was that of Triskele Books. It became clear to me that this author collective was about quality, and its members put a great deal of effort into producing professional-looking, well-edited, beautiful books. JJ Marsh is one of the Triskele Books' authors …
Five Photos … with Samantha Henthorn
My guest today is animal lover, avid reader, and author of uplit novels, Samantha Henthorn. Samantha has been a great supporter of this feature, so it's a real pleasure to welcome her today as she shares her five photos with us. I started following Sharon's Five Photos blog this summer, I'm a …
