One of the things I love about Donna and Fiona, my two main characters, are the shenanigans they include me in. Only this morning we meet a couple in the lift which takes us on a whole new adventure.

Flick Your Switch is not about making big changes to your life, rather it's small tweaks that result in big changes.

Another one added to the mounting pile. I can't sit still, I have to do something and crocheting fulfils that need. Relaxing, but still doing something.

'Just keep writing and correct it later, ' I keep telling myself. Why do I find that so difficult?

Donna & Fiona's flight has landed, but where are the shenanigans about to begin?

My Current Read - The High Life by Helen Bridgett is book 3 of 3 in the Mercury Travel Club series. Adventures of a travel agent reshaping her life after divorce. A fun and humorous read, with fabulous characters.

Every now and then I'm inspired to write poetry. It's usually when my mood takes a downward dive, which thankfully isn't often. Can anyone relate to this?

The first normal Monday after all the hoo-ha of the festivities, and I'm back to writing. Donna and Fiona are up to more shenanigans in book 6 of the Innocents Abroad Crime Series.

Been busy updating my 'books to be read in 2025' list. There's nothing I love more than settling down with a good book.

What's one of your memorable reads of 2024. Here's a few of mine.

And I wonder whether taking a break is really worth it.

I have a hard job defining which genre I fit into. Basically I write about two 50-year-old best friends who like to holiday together in search of some fun in the sun, but always manage to fall into some sort of crime. Does that sound like cosy crime to you?

When I'm not writing I like to crochet. It's a great form of mindfulness and my way of relaxing. Last weekend I was delighted to wave farewell to this huge Mandela Madness as it found its new home.

I'm seeing a lot of talk about this place so thought I'd pop over and give it a try. What have I got to lose I thought, except time as I scroll. Time when I should be writing 😜
