Starting 2023 with a new psychological thriller
I’m starting 2023 with a new psychological thriller, not literally darlings, although it’s tempting!!
This first newsletter for the year has updates about my new psychological thriller, Valentina, (the name of a neglected and abandoned baby). It’s only a working title at this stage.
I’m about a third into it and there’s much more meaty stuff to write.
The basic story outline, […]
Step Away from Social Media
I’m stepping away from Social Media.
Moving away from social media is big move after years of involvement. I’ve been mulling over this shift for some months and now seems like the best time. A clean start in 2023!
I don’t know about you, but nearly everyone I speak to both here and overseas, has the same sense of the world spiralling our […]
Duplicity Award Winning Fiction
Award Winning Fiction?
I’m about to head off overseas in 11 days and have been decluttering my email inbox!

Crow’s Song based on a True WWII Love Story
Sending you warmest good wishes for Christmas this year.
I’m holding my breath, hoping 2022 will be the end of the virus madness. Early indications are that Omicron is very contagious but has symptoms like the average cold. A scientist told me, as viruses mutate, they become more contagious but have weaker symptoms. I’m holding onto hope!
You may enjoy a distraction […]
Based on a True WWII Love Story
I’d like to make a big shout out to a few wonderful people who have helped me hone, Crow’s Song, BEFORE it went to the Editor.
Many thanks for reading the first draft, along with the wonderful advice and ‘Where’s Wally’ skills detecting missing words, details, and inconsistencies. Some glaring mistakes too – as always after working on getting the words […]
Sweating Towards the Finish Line
Crow About to Fly
Getting close to 70,000 words with about five chapters to complete for my new book Crow’s Song. It may be a longer read too.
It’s been hard work researching some of the details of the main protagonists, Ava in London, and Piet in Eindhoven, during WWII. I’ve been daring and written the characters in first person during their […]
