  • A 99p offer, an island and a town…

    From the Isle of Arran to the English market town of Bedford – that’s the journey Nina Moore made in my third book, The Attic Room. Having learned that a man she’d never heard of had left her a house, she flew south to investigate – and found more than she bargained for. My teenage…

  • Fountains… #travel #water

    For the past few weeks, I’ve been taking photos of fountains in our local area here in N.E. Switzerland, some in our little town, others in St Gallen, our nearest city. There’s quite a variety… First up – our town’s version of the Jet d’Eau in Geneva. A little closer to the harbour is the…

  • A walk in Swiss woods… #travel (almost) #SilentSunday

    After all the rain we’ve had recently, it was good to have some sunshine last week. I thought I’d walk through the woods and see how the beaver dams (there are three) were getting on. I tried to go on to the second dam, but it was so wet and muddy underfoot I gave up,…

  • Classic Comfort Reads… with Jane Cable

    The idea behind the Classic Comfort posts is that each featured writer chooses a favourite title from the classics – we’ll define ‘classic’ as pre-1940 – and a favourite comfort read, a book they always return to, for whatever reasons. As third book in each post, we’ll have one by the writer. This week, we…

  • New Book… #amwriting #coverreveal

    And here it is, the sensational cover image for my new book, The Un-Family, which will be published on November 15th. Big thanks here to Hobeck Books and their cover designer Jayne Mapp, who also designed the images for Daria’s Daughter and Pact of Silence. What’s it about? In a word – family. The Martins.…

  • Sunshine in Switzerland… #SilentSunday #travel

    Water… a weekend walk to the lake. It makes such a difference where the sun is – the two last photos were taken less than a minute apart, but looking in different directions.

  • Classic Comfort Reads… with Rae Sargeant

    The idea behind the Classic Comfort posts is that each featured writer chooses a favourite title from the classics – we’ll define ‘classic’ as pre-1940 – and a favourite comfort read, a book they always return to, for whatever reasons. As third book in each post, we’ll have one by the writer. This week, we…

  • #Wildlife in Switzerland… #nature #birds

    Our flat here in N.E. Switzerland is metres away from a belt of woodland. In winter, the view to the north is tall tree trunks with Lake Constance and Germany beyond, and in summer we have peaceful shades of leafiness on the other side of the balcony railing. One effect of this is we get…

  • Happy publication day, Helen Pryke! #books

    I’m very pleased to have a publication day post on the blog today as the fifth novel in Helen Pryke’s Healers series comes out. I’ve read all these books and can thoroughly recommend them.Over to Helen to tell us a little about the books: “It’s hard to believe it’s over, but The Healer’s Legacy is…

  • #amwriting in a heatwave… #summer ’22

    It’s been hottish, these past few weeks. I’ve often wished my ‘writing cave’ was a real cave, deep in a windswept cliff, perhaps, with lovely cold water running down the walls and bats flapping in and out. Or maybe not. I have two very different writing projects on the go at the moment. Think black…
