Isn’t it beautiful when someone unexpectedly shows you their vulnerability?
We can hide away within the chambers of our mind or we can choose to be open to ourselves and others.
Is vulnerability really a weakness? Surely if accepted and open it only produces power.

Everyone is looking for clarity and it really is at your finger tips!
Writing brings clarity to your thoughts and to your world. It doesn’t have to be a novel, a chapter or even a thousand words. Write a journal, your year plan, meal plan or even just your to do list and your mind will be clearer.
So pick up your pen, open your lap top, dig out that journal, find that post-it-note and clarity will be yours. It really is that simple and doesn’t cost a penny!

Finally after a year of Synchronicity, Submission and Skinny Dipping I am ready for my book to be published. It is quite a strange feeling I don’t mind admitting. I have had some very good advice from people that have already had a sneak peak and I thank them all enormously. I have edited the content so many times but last weekend I picked up my working copy and realised I was trying to improve a sentence that was actually ok to begin with. I am not Jane Austen however romantic my notions and my book is not a masterpiece. However if it makes anyone smile, smirk, laugh, cry or even just wiggle with the uncomfortable truth I know I did my job well.

There are many flash fiction websites, so I decided to try my hand. What a great way to make every word count. Writing thousands of words can be so much easier, you have room to breath. In 100 words, every sentence needs to count every word needs to be presice. This is my first attempt;
Nothing is Black and White, Even WritingWhere does fiction end and real life begin? My fictional writing obviously has to be based on some facts but is my factual life based on my fiction?
When I picked up The Home Coming from my book shelf it was actually to show a client how their work would look in print. It was just the number of words, not the content that was similar. Sometimes hard copy can be inspiring when your work seems only ever to be on the computer screen.
We went skinny dipping the other night. I am 37 and have never done that before; I have never felt comfortable enough in my own skin. It is a lot curvier and a bit more wobbly than it use to be, (my skin) but I love it!
I woke up at 3am. Laying in the dark my tired brain started blaming me for all the wrongs; mine, yours and everyone else’s. Then rolling over I start worrying about all the could be’s And shouldn’t be’s and maybe’s.
‘Sod this Darling!’ Harry said
He carried me up the stairs in his strong arms and plonked me down in the chair. He opened my laptop and we started to chat as I started to write. I was so pleased he was back. I thought about apologising for not giving him a voice in the last book but I knew he would just tell me to shut up so I let my fingers do the talking.
The Village Bike Theatre ProductionIn such a small theatre to be confronted by so much sexy raw energy was powerful. It filled me up and gave me hope that one day my story could be on the stage. After trying to write a screenplay that week it was great to see words come to life. I often see my words as pictures but that doesn’t mean everyone else does!
I met with a film producer yesterday, he had read my first two chapters and liked them. It is always good when someone likes your work but it is even better if they inspire you. I have now started to rewrite my first book as a screenplay. I have found more detail is needed and so the book is getting more descriptive. In short the manuscript is getting better, my writing is improving and the story is getting deeper. I had been so involved with other projects I had started to doubt that first manuscript. So it was amazing to be brought back to it, back to exactly where I was this time last year, writing it.
