Coming up with the names for my characters is always an issue for me. It takes me ages and is often dependent on how I feel about any person with that name that I’ve met in the past. I’m always indecisive about the ones I choose for my characters and during a first draft they […]
I have never given any thought to my chapter headings. Consequently, I have gone about as basic as you can go – Chapter 1, not even Chapter One. And I wonder if I should change that? I have a client who has always named each of his chapters. Actually he puts a number first and […]
I may well be the last person to this but when listening to the AskAlli: Self-Publishing Advice Podcast today, on the Advanced Use of Social Media for Authors, Joanna Penn mentioned Linktree. I’d never heard of it before. I have used various link options over the years from Bit.ly for handy shortened links, then Book […]
This has been the latest thing I’ve tackled in my round of do-overs. My mailing list. I have made so many mistakes with this. And I knew as much, but just hadn’t found the time to sort things out. Recently though I finally got round to reading Newsletter Ninja by Tammi Labrecque, made notes, […]
I’m writing a new series – there, I’ve said it out loud. The plan is for a fairly long series, but should that all go to pot I can make it shorter, even into a trilogy, or quite possibly, at the moment, a standalone. However, they, or it, turns out, though I’m returning to […]
Union Clues is the first book in a series and is set, mostly, in the world of narrowboats and canals, about which I know little. This story is split into three parts, each of which is told in the voice of its main character – Stella, Nancy and Dawn. It is a mystery but […]
I have been struggling with sales from my website for a while. I used to have a shop which sold paperbacks and recently spent a day trying to get this to work smoothly with the right amount of postage being allotted to each product correctly but to be honest the permutations seemed endless and eventually […]

Her growing intimacy with Trent, an ex-RAF property manager with calming protective instincts, helps her to cope with her tragic past. But when the true undercover nature of […]
You know that feeling you get when you realise you should have read a book months, if not years ago? Yup, I had that moment when I opened Newsletter Ninja. And the worst part about it is… I’ve had it on my kindle since 2018 and simply haven’t had the time to get to […]
Regular readers of this blog will already know about RBRT but I have been a proud member of Rosie’s Book Review Team since… well, I can’t actually remember when I joined, or how, but I suspect it had something to do with Terry Tyler. I think I’d started posting reviews for books I read and […]
