I’m still snowed under with stuff to do, and about to set off again on the long haul south to teach (and judge at the British Dressage Winter Championships – yay!), so just a quick book review this week. Witchy Business by Eve Paludan My rating: 4 of 5 stars I picked this up because […]
I am so snowed under with stuff to do right now, unfortunately blogging is taking a bit of a back seat. Summer finally arrived in the Highlands, and that means when not working, its all hands on deck in the garden. As we have incredibly long days – currently daylight at around 4am, sunset after […]
I’m back on the road again for one of my long haul coaching trips, so it’s back to the good old standby of funnies, this time (loosely) writing-themed. Mind you, who doesn’t appreciate a good laugh? The first is very topical as I have done plenty of Zooming over the last year plus, and my […]
I will admit I probably wouldn’t consider arranging one of these myself just yet, but when a prolific and successful author I follow offered the opportunity to five other authors to apply to join her in a boxset venture, I put THE PRINCE’S MAN forward right away.

I am still reading through the omnibus edition of the first 3 books in the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series – there are at least 24 books to date – and loving it. Horror is not my usual genre, but these are so well written with Anita’s humanity and principles clearly to the forefront despite […]
I am a UK author, and I write my books in English – I don’t like to qualify that by calling it ‘UK English’ because in my books that’s a redundancy. I hope that doesn’t offend my many US friends. My reason for raising this, is that I often see discussions between UK authors about […]
I hesitated about reviewing this book, but decided that even a 3 star review can be useful to an author – I felt I had enough positive to say to balance the negative to make it worth it, so here it is. Epicentre by Chris Andrews My rating: 3 of 5 stars Grace is a […]
By the time this post goes live, I will be on the road, driving from North Scotland to Southern England for the first time this year. It’s a 650 mile, 12 hour drive, and I’m doing it in my little horsebox so I have my own mobile accommodation, what with COVID restrictions still in place. […]
I’m assuming you have your Amazon Author page set up? If not, then do so right away! Your author page is where customers can find all your books in one place, and links to your blog too. They find it by clicking on your name, on your book’s sale page And this is what it […]
We woke up this morning to a white Easter Monday Known as the ‘lambing snow’, it’s a regular feature of the Highland year. Unfortunately this year it looks set in for the next 5 days, so the daffodils and the tulips might not survive. Work has taken over the last few days, and I’ve given […]
