Kate Furnivall very kindly asked me to follow her in the blog hop, so here I am.

WHAT AM I WORKING ON NOW?

RED IS FOR RUBIES, which is a contemporary relationship novel with more than a few threads of relationships running through it. There is lost love, and first love, and regretted love, and rekindled love. It is set in Devon in the South Hams and Totnes and Dartmouth feature heavily – both places which I love and know well. I have finished the edit and am now waiting for proofs. RIFR is to be an e.book initially, and – hopefully, with good sales – it could go to paperback. Fingers crossed because I have a great fondness for the writing of this novel and would love to hold it between hard covers in my hand. This will be my fifth publication with Choc Lit

HOW DOES MY WORK DIFFER FROM OTHERS OF ITS GENRE?

I’m not sure that it differs as such, but I do write from a very emotional angle about things that readers can, possibly, relate to for whatever reason, so I hope that will make my work stand out.

WHY DO I WRITE WHAT I DO?

There isn’t an easy answer to that, I don’t think. This novel began life when my daughter worked in an art pottery and I thought it would make a great setting for a novel.

HOW DOES MY WRITING PROCESS WORK?

As has been said before me…..I sit at my desk and open a vein. Joking apart, characters usually come first for me, then setting, and then the plot, before they all start to interweave and overlap and some months later I am writing THE END.
