Grateful for this lovely review. Day made #booksky

Edits for book 2 have gone back to my publisher. Returning to book 3 after a two week break has given me renewed impetus. I know you’re supposed to rest your manuscript after a first draft but I’ve never been good at that. Anyone else?

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #1616: In a world in which the average writer earns only £7000 a year, be sure why you want to do this. If it's to make a fortune, or hang out with famous people, or to be famous yourself, forget it. It isn't a lottery. It's a slog. Only joy makes it worthwhile.

Unboxing a delivery of Connie books from my publisher never gets old. These are destined for an event I’m doing in March! #booksky #writingcommunity
