I’ve been a little quiet lately ….
No pictures, just a quick few words to say that my second book, following on from The House of Secrets: Julia’s Story is well under way. It will contain a few surprises, I’m sure. I will let everyone know as soon as it is close to being published ……. a couple of months at most! Now, back to work … #Publishing #Book2 #Australia #Writing #Bellevillesaga

Did you miss a bargain?
I haven’t been very active on my blog of recent times …. my excuse: busy with the day job and then trying to find time to write Book 2 of the Belleville family saga. Plus getting a bad virus that knocked me down for a while. I attended the recent pop up bookshop in Caloundra organised by the Tamarind Book Club on Sunday 6 November – a successful day for authors, I believe. I wanted to sell down the remainder of Book 1 stock – and I did pretty well at that – the stack was much

Excuse me, but wasn’t I meant to spend the day writing?
It is a giant mistake to think you can give your website an update in half an hour. I tell you now that is impossible, so the several Sunday hours I should have spent with my characters, progressing their lives and loves, I instead spent updating my website and learning more about the capabilities of the CMS (content management system, for the uninitiated). I did achieve something though (I think). For anyone interested in my writing, you can get, for free, the first four cha

Thanks for the welcome, Laidley and Gatton
So it’s Sunday and I’m back in Brisbane and reflecting on my author talks at Laidley and Gatton on Friday. Click on the links to find out where these towns are.

Committed – no backing down now
The beautiful Botanic Gardens in Christchurch, New Zealand The problem when you have a busy and intellectually demanding day job is that the writing life you’ve also committed to gets scant attention at times. Do I have the headspace to progress my writing career and steer a traditional print media magazine group through the challenging transition phase we’re currently seeing in the print media sector as well give my attention to my first love? Frustrated and confused, I went
