I'm home!

Just read my previous post and howled! The point of a weeks' holiday is to relax, yet I dragged my exhausted body back to the UK last Sunday

Enjoy the picture of the laguna and water caves, one of Lanzarote's many delights



Noteworthy things to report: -
  • I've completed the 'Evening class Creative Writing' audio CDs and work books
  • I've used the fabulous material to deepen my characters and have been experimenting with creating intrigue
  • I've ordered See Jane Write - a chick lit guide
  • I've read: -
  • Pushed to the limit by Katie Price,
  • Secret life of a Slummy Mummy by Fiona Neil
  • the Beautiful game- A Wags tale by Clare Chervin
  • How to lose a husband and gain a life - Bernadette Strachan
  • The Copper Binch by Maeve Binchy

Those were the good reads and I'll post a review on the must-reads later. I was let down by: -

  • Angel uncovered by Katie Price (character depth somewhat lacking, plus too many similarities with her autobiogs - which were fab)
  • Sadomasichism for accountants by Rosie Barnes

  1. Sounds like you've been busy!

    BTW, a chicklit author friend of mine is looking to send out review copies - if you'd be interested, how do people contact you??
