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…

Goodbye winter, ade (hopefully…) #writing
First blog post since November… for multiple reasons, but mainly due to an eye condition that makes me very prone to eyestrain, and screenwatching doesn’t help. But enough of that. Winter brought us a minimum of snow ‘down’ here by Lake Constance, and I’m beginning to feel that spring might be approaching. Slowly. The last…

Dreich in November… and a bargain! #SilentSunday #books
Make that almost Silent Sunday… November hasn’t been the sunniest month so far in N.E. Switzerland, but the old town is impressive even in grey gloom. My “Christmas” cactus collection is looking good too. Not sure we’ll make it to Christmas, though. And finally – Daria’s Daughter is on a UK/US 99p/c deal for the…

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…

And – it’s a wedding! #books
Wedding Bells are set to ring for Stacy and Rico in my coming book, out in under two weeks now and available for preorder around January 15th. Have a look at the lovely cover image, designed as usual for this series by James at Go On Write – thank you so much, James. I particularly…

2023 – the year that was…
It’s been a busy year here in N.E. Switzerland, both in my writing and more generally too. And it’s been an odd one, because this is the first year since 2012 that I haven’t had a new suspense book published. On the other hand, it’s the first year ever where I’ve self-published four books (the…

Merry Christmas to all!
I’m sure everyone has more than enough to do on Christmas Eve, so this is a very quick post to say MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, and great good luck for 2024! I really appreciate all the help and support I have from the reading, writing and blogging communities – especially this year when I’ve had…

Autumn in Switzerland #SilentSunday
Almost silent, anyway… As you see, the website is still a work in progress, but I have three lovely autumn photos from Pixabay today. I’ve been to all these places, though not always at this time of year. First up is Tarasp Castle in Lower Engadin, S.E. Switzerland. A different scene below – Geneva and…
