Speaking And Writing In My Own Voice

As the weather hots up and the month wears on, I've been continuing along on my blog tour with Bewitching Book Tours. It's been a busy few weeks, with interviews, spotlights, top tens (chocolate!) and guest blog posts. I've been thinking quite a lot about stuff and it seems to be the time of year when … Continue reading Speaking And Writing In My Own Voice

What a Busy Blog Touring Week!

The first week of my blog tour is now over. There have been interviews and spotlights, and I've been writing frantically to make sure I'm organised for this week's events.

This week I'll be at: November 10 Guest blog … Continue reading What a Busy Blog Touring Week!

Weather

Today is the hottest day this Spring so far. According to the internet, it hit 39 degrees (celcius) about 25km away. We're usually just a little hotter, so I'm guessing that we may have been about 40 degrees here. And it's only October. We've done hot. For years we lived in the Pilbara Region of … Continue reading Weather

Dr Who Musings

I"ve been a Dr Who fan for as long as I can remember. When I was a child, we'd watch an episode every week day evening from Monday to Thursday on the ABC.

Manuscript First Pages – Things I’ve learnt along the way.

Tomorrow is the official launch date for Frontier Resistance. It's the second book in my Frontier Series, and continues the tale of Shanna and her friends as they confront the alien invaders. 'The Garsal have landed and Frontier has changed forever. Even as Shanna and her friends struggle to master their new gifts before the … Continue reading Frontier Resistance Launch – Tomorrow!

Cats

It's only a few days now until Frontier Resistance is published, and apart from thinking about that, I've been thinking about cats. Why might you ask? I think it's because I enjoy writing about them, and they form a very important part of the Frontier Series. I am, very definitely, a cat person. Even now … Continue reading Cats
