Brand-New Poetry & The Tapestry Girl (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m continuing to write the story of Ralph & Alec in Jack’s Party. Their relationship now takes a turn towards the bitter-sweet for a variety of good reasons, and so Ralph turns to Jack for advice. I tend to find this aspect of writing quite challenging so have taken it slowly in order to get it right for them all. So Ralph is busy recalibrating his life & being honest with himself about it as best possible. I’ve also introduced a complication in the novel that Ralph hadn’t expected - I knew I w

After all the excitements of the editing I’ve been doing (always my favourite part of the writing process), I’m now back to writing more of MM romance Jack’s Party. I’ve had to try to remember where I was with this one, and both Ralph and Jack are giving me very hard stares for daring to leave them for so long, so I was absolutely in a panic, but I think I’m getting back into it now. Mind you, Ralph is surprised that his author might actually have a plan, albeit a small one, for the scene I’m wr

Read excerpt
This week I’ve completed the read-through of my women’s fiction witchy novel The Music of Flowers. I’ve streamlined the extra tension & darkness I added last week. And the magic & emotions have also ramped up. In any case, Fleur & Julia have pronounced themselves happy with what I’ve done - for now. So that’s good news. 😁<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I5rU!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.ama
