I had a wonderful night at the Pen To Print awards a few weeks ago. Met the Mayor of Barking and Dagenham, got a certificate and a pen (I love an engraved pen), and I spoke with lots of lovely people. Just need to finish the book now for publication next year. #writers #writing #crime #freepen

My review of @alexchurchill.bsky.social and @pikegrey1418.bsky.social book Ring of Fire on the beginnings of the #GreatWar is available here. It is highly recommended. www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

I did a thing! Finalist in the Book Challenge. I will work with a mentor for the next year to get the book ready for publication in mid 2026. #WritingCommunity #WriterSky #writers
