It's been a hard slog but one that I wouldn't change for the world. The 5* reviews for my books far outweigh the occasional 1* review - and the latter are usually from people who have grabbed a freebie when it's not their usual genre anyway. Yes, I've learned a lot - not least, to roll with the punches.
MASSIVE thanks to all my merry gang who have supported me along the way. The majority of those, I had no idea existed until I started on this writing lark. Social networking is a remarkable thing and I've met, not only online but in real life, some of the nicest people over the last three years.
One of those sharing my weekend of celebrations is the lovely @AuroraTherapy. We met on Twitter three years ago and instantly hit it off. How much can two women have in common? Alternative health, reading, humour, drag, gay men, Barry Manilow, parties, dressing up, old musicals, cheesecake, Marmite, dancing, wine and party planning. We were a match made in heaven! So tonight we'll be sharing a fondue, a bottle of vino, a cheesecake and no doubt listening to 'The Rocky Horror Show' followed by a sprinkle of the old Bazzer Mazzer!
On Friday I'll be celebrating with 'Fenella' and Co as usual - it seems only right. It's where it all began.
So as I set another of my babies on its way, I cross my fingers that it will be well received and that the writing fairies continue to visit me for my December release.
Off to the dreaded dentist now before I start raising a glass or two - oh the glamour of a writer.
If you should like to grab a copy of 'The All or Nothing Girl' why not do it while I'm being tortured in the chair and I'll try a wonky smile when I get home and see my sales reports. I may even dribble.
Here's the cover:
And the blurb:
What happens
when your comfortable life
is suddenly denied you?
When the Chanel make up’s dried up,
the designer gear’s been flogged on eBay
and the Persian rug has been well and truly
pulled out from under you?
Meet Francesca Milton-Harris

as she realises that one ‘little
mistake’
is going to change her life in ways she
could never have imagined.

sometimes you have to lose it all
to see how much more you can gain.

Wishing you lots of luck - I'm sure it'll be a winner : ) x
