Don't know about you, but this place feels like a breath of fresh air.
Speaking of which - I'm delighted to reveal the cover of book 2 in the Chef Paul Delamare series, #MurderBelowDeck.

Just wanted to say - so very sorry for your loss. And you’re so right about the ups and downs… and how it’s healthy to talk about ALL of it. When my first publisher turned down my third book, I felt a bit humiliated. And shocked. I changed genre & publisher). It worked out v well… but was tough.

Today’s tip for #writingcommunity.
This is a marathon, not a sprint.
It’s not about one book. Or even one publisher.
When my first publisher rejected my third novel, I changed genre (and publisher). Had a breakout book!
You will need to believe in yourself. And dig deep… #booksky #books
Updated version of the author starter pack. It is now one of those giant multipacks, with more flavours and varieties than you ever dreamed could exist in one place. #books #booksky #starterpack

Today’s tips from author who took a decade to get a book deal (now sold 2 million + books)
Be genre aware
Write in forward gear ( edit later)
Know that rejection is not a dead end. It’s a diversion sign to find a different route. ..

Ok . New here so introductions…
I’m an author who took 10 years to get published, had my breakout book aged 58 and have now sold over 2.5 million books.
Still get imposter syndrome.
I’m your cheerleader if you fear it might be too late to start writing…
Spoiler alert. It’s not!
I’m a novice potter too! Anything to pretend I don’t have a deadline 😂

No idea yet quite how it works here.
Meantime have had piano tuned and taken up pottery which can only mean one thing. Yup. Diversion tactics =book deadline…
Here’s first (very basic) slab project. Geranium printing. On the wheel next, gulp!
