To accompany the book, I have created a music playlist which the lead female character, Ems, would have listened too, or was important for her and Max.

Almost here!

Well I have been busy as much as I can on my first to be published book 'The Seasons May Drift'  a fantasy romance novel. Publication day is tomorrow the 28th of December 2012.

A little summary of the storyline: A woman who wishes for love, falls for a man who isn't all he appears to be!  What is the deep secret he wants to keep from her? What will happen? Will she find out? What then? He has a deep secret, one that will either ultimately destroy the relationship or make this a love beyond the universe, beyond a lifetime!

I am currently editing the book and getting it ready for publication. I really hope you will enjoy this book, the story. I am a novice in that is it my first novel  and I do have a long ways to go before I am completely confident with my writing, but nevertheless, this book is very important to me as it is dedicated to someone who has always remained very special and close to my heart.


I will post publishers links and other info tomorrow.

Two Weeks From Now!

Exciting news!! 'The Seasons May Drift' a fantasy romance novel will be published on Friday the 28th of December 2012. The book will be available on that date for direct download, publisher links and other info will be made available on the day.

So keep your eyes peeled!

Further updates via Twitter will be made regards the progress of the book at random intervals.

Next year, First off the press will be the much anticpated and long awaited publication of 'Gossamer Wings and Other Things' and the non-fiction book 'Scenes from a Journey.'

Other books and an audio version of my first book 'The Promise' will also be pubished.

As a further note. I have actually written the end of 'The Seasons May Drift/' I know from other writers it generally isn't the thing to do. But I had one of those moments, when I saw how it would end!! It fits in perfectly with how the story transpires. For me just means, the book has an ending, so it is just sorting out the rest of it. 

I have editing to commence once the deadline for completion of the book, 22nd of December, is passed and I have my novel done. So between the 22nd and the 27th I have editing to do. 

I am happy with how this book is turning out. It is my first novel and my first fantasy romance book.  Next year there will be another romance book, of which I already have the title, idea of the story and the first paragraph written. All this will be revealed next year.

Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel! Well almost!


Well isn't it about time I wrote something on my blog!!  I have been busy with writing away on my fantasy romance novel 'The Seasons May Drift' which is due out later this month. I still have a good bit to go, in other words about 30k words has to be done yet, not to mention editing!

I am pleased at how the novel is turning out. I just hope when I have it published that people will enjoy it and re read it time and again.  This will be my first published novel and one which is very important to me. 

For 2013 there will be the long awaited publication of 'Gossamer Wings and Other Things'  plus a non- fiction book, 'Scenes from a Journey.'  An audio version of 'The Promise',  a novel later in the year and a fantastic childrens book, all yet to come! 


                                          More news and updates very soon.
