DIARY OF A NOVEL!


"LOVE AT SUNSET" - THE MANUSCRIPT

Two years ago, I wrote on Facebook that I was “having such fun with my new romantic suspense novel” (Love at Sunset)!

I posted, “It's set in The Bahamas and Scotland. I started writing it on June 6th [2014], the 70th anniversary of ‘D Day' (very appropriate date to start, don't you think?!). I just love it! It's going really well and the words are flowing. I've written four chapters so far and am well into Chapter Five.”

I then posted on August 3rd, 2014 (two months later), “I've just finished the first draft of my novel - 30 chapters and around 80,000 words. Hooray! Now I have to start the editing process, in order to polish it up and get it ready to submit to agents.”


Who would ever have predicted back then that Love at Sunset would now be available all over the world. And I’m so glad I diarized the novel’s progress on Facebook!
