Paul, who patiently interviewed me for hours Am on The Reading Room from SirenFM 10.00-12.00 BST on Sunday 5 September 2010, first of three programmes. Just click to listen free to a couple of hours of output about books. SirenFM is a community radio station - brilliant that they can devote this kind of time to a [...] I love it when somebody says to me, ‘I see your name everywhere.’ Because that’s the plan.
This is how I always write, of course - on the patio in the sunshine in my best dress! (It was for a magazine.) In these days of social networking and instant communication, all it takes is [...] Words with Jam I’ve been introduced to a free online magazine for readers and writers: Words with Jam As you can see, I am featured along with All That Mullarkey on the August 2010 cover. (What good taste - All That Mullarkey I mean, of course.) Inside is my article about what I look for when judging competitions - and [...] The condemned panel enjoys a joke Maybe I shouldn’t have had those pictures of Tony Robinson power-pointed as I spoke. I have a teensy idea that they may have influenced the audience to giggle, just a trifle when I talked about the hero of Please Don’t Stop the Music, Ben Davies. But at least they [...] Mark Webber, Goodwood Festival of Speed 2010 Last weekend saw the Formula 1 British Grand Prix at Silverstone, Northamptonshire, won by Mark Webber. Mark isn’t my absolutely favourite driver - Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton, the Brits, are currently top of my charts - but Mark’s my hero this week because he stood up for himself [...]
Sue and Christina This past weekend some of us attended the Romantic Novelists’ Association’s annual conference, held at Greenwich Old Royal Naval College this year. Marketing director Lyn gave a well-attended talk on the Saturday, answering questions about all aspects of Choc Lit, and she will no doubt be inundated [...] Want to Know a Secret? I have been enthusiastic about all of my Choc Lit covers but this one - hot off the designer’s computer - has a little extra spark. Don’t you think? I love it. Everyone at Choc Lit pays a lot of attention to the detail of their covers so this one has [...] I was a tad nervous before the RNA Summer Party, after all no one wants to be the wallflower, standing on the side like Billy No-Mates hoping someone will strike up a conversation. I needn’t have worried; this is the RNA after all! The problem isn’t about having no one [...] Margaret & Christine Anyone who’s ever been to an RNA party will know that noise levels are deafening as everyone greets old friends and new. Plenty of drinks and canapés help of course and the very kind Dr. Hessayon gave each of us a glass of champagne to celebrate the winner of this year’s Joan [...] All That Mullarkey Look what arrived this morning - hot off the press: All That Mullarkey! Beautiful, or what? I took this photo so you could see that the butterflies are silver - including the one on the spine. Isn’t that pretty? I love it. It’s just gorgeous. Revenge and love: it’s a thin line… The writing’s on [...] |
