  • Swiss pics, five books and two bargains… #writing

    It’s been a busy few weeks here in N.E. Switzerland. To start with, there’s the Lakeside Hotel series, which is now complete and up on Amazon – BIG thanks to DP Books for the gorgeous cover images. Number five, Wedding Bells at the Lakeside Hotel is now on pre-order at just 99p worldwide, so grab…

  • Many quilts and two bargain #books…

    (Scroll down for the bargain books…) It was raining in St Gallen last Monday, so a friend and I decided to go to a museum. The Textile Museum being nearby, we dripped in there and found an exhibition of very photogenic quilts and quilting: I seem to have lost the full version of the one…

  • Four beers, three books and a “snowstorm”…

    Here we are in May, and we had several lovely summery days in N.E. Switzerland last week before the weather broke and brought us some much needed rain. But we’ll start with the book news. The first two in my Lakeside Hotel series, Saving the Lakeside Hotel and Return to the Lakeside Hotel are now…

  • Pictures of Switzerland… #books

    We’re getting beautiful spring weather here in N.E. Switzerland – it’s lovely to be able to get out and about without packing woolly hats and gloves and scarves. Last week, a friend and I went to the Würth Haus in Rorschach, where the new exhibition is ‘Sport and Free Time’. The exhibits were many and…

  • On the other side of the Alps… #travel #SilentSunday

    On Friday, a friend and I set off (very) early to visit another friend in the Ticino – Locarno, to be exact. It was a fabulous day: Don’t forget, Saving the Lakeside Hotel is on pre-order at 99p/c with dp Books, and will be out in ten days or so. By summer, all five ebooks…

  • News… and a bargain #book

    Bargain first – Stolen Sister is just 99p/c in the UK/US this weekend – grab it while it’s hot! The news belongs to Melinda Huber, my feel-good writing self, and I’ve been sitting on it for weeks now. I’m delighted that the Lakeside Hotel books have been accepted by dp digital publishers, an established German…

  • A wacky exhibition and three #book bargains

    Book bargains first, so if you’re here for the exhibition pics only, just scroll on by. Last week I parted ways – very amicably – with my publisher, and set about republishing the books on Amazon. The process is still ongoing and reviews for two of them haven’t transferred from the existing audiobook versions to…

  • Lake Constance… #travel

    I have two kinds of lakeside pics for you this week. First of all, both Saving the Lakeside Hotel and Return to the Lakeside Hotel are available in paperback now as well as ebook. Secondly, below are a couple of photos I took from the ferry on the way to and from Friedrichshafen on the…

  • When in doubt – make paperbacks… #books

    I’ve spent a lot of time recently mulling over which direction I want to take with my writing. Getting the five Lakeside Hotel books ready for ebook publication, then organising the necessary promotion etcetera for them didn’t leave a lot of time for writing, and while I do have two works-in-progress, the decision about what,…

  • Wedding Bells… #books

    It’s been a busy week for me here in N.E. Switzerland. It’s been pretty cold, too, which at least means I’m less tempted to abandon my computer and go outside… I took this photo of our lovely, but chilly lake yesterday. So, book news: Wedding Bells at the Lakeside Hotel was released without a hitch on…
