NOVEL WRITING MEMORIES!
Wow! This old post about my first novel “Love at Sunset”, which became “Dangerous Devotion” (The Buchanan Mystery Romance Series”), popped up in Facebook Memories from July 4, 2014! -
“I finished writing Chapter Fourteen of my novel in the blackout last night, scribbling the final few pages of the chapter in a notebook by flashlight and then typing them up this morning after the power came back on. Have started Chapter Fifteen, so am almost half way through the book. Now I’m plotting out the rest of the story, so I can gradually bring everything to a satisfactory conclusion.”
"Dangerous
Devotion" is available as an e-book and in paperback HERE!

WHEN MOVING GETS IN THE WAY OF WRITING!
Last October our landlord
gave us notice, as he wanted to renovate the apartment we'd rented from him for
eleven years. My regular writing basically stopped right then until we could
find another apartment. I have never in my whole life (and that's pretty long)
been without the pleasure of writing.
I just posted and posted and networked etc. trying to find us another place to live. We nearly took one place, but it wasn't secure enough. Then the next one was going to have a lot of renovations going on as well. Finally, third time lucky, we found a lovely garden apartment in an oceanfront gated community, which unbelievably was in our price range! We moved here two weeks ago.
It was quite a move, but we
managed it. We can now have lunch on our porch and enjoy the trees, flowers and
shrubs that grow profusely here in The Bahamas. We can walk down to the beach
in the evening and sit on a bench there, watching the cruise ships on the
horizon and the waves lapping at the white shore. We will of course start
swimming too, once we are completely settled and the weather warms up a little.
NOW I can write again!
