On The Road!
Being an author is a dual experience sometimes. Most of the year, you lock yourself away with imaginary people and live in that created world. That’s the everyday side of it. But then, you have to change out of your PJs, travel to different places and be part of the excitement, sensory battering, rollercoaster that [...]

Written Dreams
It’s something that I will always look at and feel an immense sense of pride and joy. I was lucky to be a part of the first GCLS Writing Academy. It was a course which introduced new friends who I will always enjoy cheering on and saw me work, once more, with my dear friend [...]

But, mental health isn’t just about those long-term mental health challenges that so many (incredible) people face. We’re all susceptible to suffering from mental illness and there’s always a new way to improve our mental [...]

A Bold Day Out
Authors are recluses much of the time (or at least the majority of us) but there are occasions when we change out of our pyjamas and head to sun-filled places... i.e. Nottingham (yes, it really was sunny – who knew!) on glorious bank holiday weekends to hang out with the beautiful people (i.e. the Bold [...]

Changing Images
Hey! I'm in the midst of writing at the moment on several different projects, editing, and racking up hospital miles but wanted to drop in and say hi. Whatever I'm writing, it teaches me something new and the experiences day to day seem to filter into the book. With Aeron's series, I talk about captivity [...]
