I was browsing for something to read in WHSmiths and saw issue 5 of the Torchwood Magazine. Normally I’m not one for buying the tie-in magazines for TV shows, but the front cover story of this one was the Jack/Ianto relationship. Or, as they call it, ‘Jack & Jones’. ‘Go you!’ I thought. ‘Finally an…
I spent most of the day so far in Addenbrookes hospital, where I’d been drafted to drive my husband home after he’d had his kidney stone zapped with ultrasonic rays. Something which apparently leaves the victim patient literally shaken up. Unfortunately after x-rays it turned out that the stone had moved and was now being…
I’ve just got to squee about this fantastic review of ‘Captain’s Surrender’ from a reader who loved it so much she’s almost written an essay 🙂 She says: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1602020892/ref=cm_arms_pdp_dp and scroll down. “Captain’s Surrender is a romance for those of us who are unabashedly romantic at heart and know a good love story when we…

In a thrilling move, I blogged on the Britwriters blog about the necessity of getting an ITIN tax number if you’re being published in America. Possibly not everyone’s cup of tea, but of considerable importance if you’re a British writer, being paid by an American publisher: Your ITIN and You.
I hate blurb writing! I’ve got a theme which can be summarized in about a sentence ‘this book is about true love conquering all. Also it’s about how banning homosexuality is bad for society.’ And I’ve got a plot that stretches over a couple of pages of synopsis. But finding something to say in the…
How can I not have posted this?! My only excuse has to be that this week has been beyond manic with the launch of the Britwriters’ blog, which took off absurdly and needed fifty times more administration than I thought it would. I haven’t even had time to squee about this fantastic review for ‘The…

I’ve just finished Lee Benoit’s ‘Servant of the Seasons: Autumn‘ which I have to admit I started out on with trepidation. Why? Because she did me such a lovely interview on Speak It’s Name – spending huge amounts of time in the process – that I was afraid in case I might not like it. …
