Eclipse

I watched the eclipse today, from Bridlington on the East Yorkshire coast. It was a fun event, the sun wasn't out but that made viewing of the sun hiding behind the moon easy on the eyes. The sky didnt darken where we were but I still found the event inspiring.

My daughter and her children met us on the sea front as part of their equinox celebrations. I had my mother with me so it was a bit of a family get together.

Its not just the world around us that is beautiful and full of magic but the heavens too. Take time to find a little magic in your life every day

Now after spending a day with my wonderful family I get to spend a few more hours alone to work on Dark Magic Rising.

Almost There

After spending a week looking after my elderly mum and getting over a family issue. I am finally back in a writing frame of mind.

Bodelia's Anguish Has gone through a bit of a re-write and extensive editing. I am now waiting for the status on smashwords to change from pending to complete. The book is still available to download for free. However, the storyline has not changed. It should flow better and be easier to follow.

This is my first attempt at self publishing, so I do ask for patience as I get my head around the whole thing.

Not Enough Hours In the Day

What happened to those days where I had nothing to do? Where I could laze around, watch some TV, listen to some music and general be a slob?

Well, those days have gone. Partly because I work four mornings a week. I find some days I am so tired I go to bed when I get home and then that's the day gone.

Last week my youngest grandson was in hospital. He is only four months old. He had a viral infection. Trips to the hospital and helping out with my daughters other children, seriously depleted my free time.

I have some editing and re-writing to do before I can concentrate on typing up my latest book or continuing with writing the next in the series.

So if there is anyone out there that knows how to add a day to the week or even stretch the hours out in one day, please contact me, I would love to know how.

New to this blogging thing!

My first blog!

I'v looked around at sites that offer this service and thought why? Here at goodreads they provide everything you need.

It's easy to use and if I can get my head around it anyone can. This social media 'thing' takes time and sometimes I don't have much time.

I have been busy editing Bodelia's Anguish. I know its all ready on smashwords but there will be a few changes to it. We have decided to have a launch day but wont say when just yet.

My grandson was taken into hospital with a viral infection, he is doing well on the anti biotic the docs have him on. However, due to baby sitting duties and going to the hospital and supporting my daughter, the launch maybe later than we wanted.

Well, that is me today. Oh yeah, I started to answer the questions that goodreads can through at you. So if you want to go look then feel free and if you want to ask me anything go ahead :) I may reserve the right not to answer though.

One last thing, anyone looking for a good paranormal book to read, try then Paranormally Yours is what you need. Paranormally Yours A Boxed Set by Zoe Dawson

The stories are varied, fun and full of sexy heroes.
