About Me

My photo
A fiction writer and mum to three great kids, also lucky enough to be married to the man of my dreams. In spite of that mushy comment I do not write flowery romance - I like a nice helping of real life grit in my work. I have a Diploma in Literature & Creative Writing from The Open University and remain a member of the wonderful Watford Writers, despite moving on several times. I am a big fan of Swanwick Writers Summer School which has taught me a great deal and where I have made many great friends. I have yet to reach the dizzy heights of becoming a published superstar but will continue to send my work out into the world.

Getting On

Well, yesterday I had a bit of a disaster.  My computer wasn't saving any changes I made to my current stories.  Of course living with a genius helps and Carl came to my rescue.  He giggled things around and pulled faces but within half an hour the problem was resolved.  It was as well I had a hard copy of the story I was amending.

With one story submitted to TABFF and another entered for the choc-lit short story competition I still have lots to be getting on with.  I have one story almost ready to go out, just a bit more brewing time I think.  I really want to try my luck with the Australian market and I might test the water with that story.  Its a style I've not tried before so why not? 

I have another two on the go and one which is still in draft mode.  So as I say, plenty to keep me busy!  I'm just hoping the gremlins in my laptop don't start to play me up again, its very frustrating.  Its seem I may have wished too soon as the spell check seems to be hiding somewhere, so please forgive any typos.
