2018 has been the year when:
- I managed to complete a pretty decent draft of my second novel, now at the MS stage. I’m just taking a little break from editing it now to write this.
- I (informally) took part in NaNoWriMo and almost completed a rough draft of a middle grade children’s book.
- I had some modest success in getting my first novel, ‘The Silver Locket’, out there. I had a look at the KDP stats and I sold a few dozen – enough to buy a couple of cups of coffee with cake!
What I hadn’t realised was that 91 of you lovely folk read it on Kindle Unlimited. I hope you enjoyed!
Note to self: I need to work on that marketing stuff next year.
- And finally, and unexpectedly, I accidentally became a blogger. This has been awesome. Writing can be lonely; being a homeworker also can be lonely. But you’re never alone when you have mates out there in inter-web-land. Thank you all!
And look at all these words I’ve so happily churned out:
Thanks for reading, and thanks for liking and commenting.
Here’s to a wonderful 2019. Happy New Year!
A very Happy New Year to you. Hope that 2019 will bring more joy and success.🥳

I love your writing space! Believe it or not, (well, actually just believe it lol) compared to my drawing and sewing spaces it’s not messy at all!😋

I think you have an excuse for drawing and sewing, and of course you haven’t seen the rest of the room! 😉

You had a great year, my friend. In fact we all did. Blogging is a wonderful way of meeting new people. It’s one of the joys of writing and I’m happy to see you’re experiencing it too.
Keep writing and continue to work hard. That is the simple formula to success.
Happy New Year!!!
