RNA-N Lunch meeting today in Harrogate.

Thoroughly enjoyed attending the RNA-N lunch meeting today at The Smith Arms in Beckwithshaw, Harrogate... so lovely to catch up with a number of old pals again after so long. Sadly, several I'd love to have seen, couldn't be there. It must be about 20 years or more, since I first attended my first "Flying Ducks" meeting.

I enjoyed the fascinating chat around the table today, which was mostly about inspiration and the different ways in which many us found we got inspired to write. Some wonderfully apt quotes and sayings were read out too.

I have to say it was interesting to hear quite so many varied contributions, and to see that so many more writers are now embracing the eBook phenomenon. As one other lady said... Kindle has now liberated her... and I do agree. Indeed just like so many of us, who've struggled for years to find agents or publishers, it's great, that now with Kindle we can get our books out there to readers, and to a large degree be in control of the books'  destinies ourselves. Onwards and upwards, guys!

Good luck to everyone who's just got e-published !

Wonderful to hear about those attending who are having such success with their very latest books, whether printed or digital. For instance, I'm totally in awe of the number of books published by the likes of those around the table... Ken McCoy, Val Wood, Freda Lightfoot, Leah Fleming, and others, of course. Freda made a fleeting mention that she writes two books a year!!! I think we all gasped when she said that! Oh how I wish!!!

Great day... came away most inspired.

A FACE TO DIE FOR on FREE offer!!!

FREE OFFER from tomorrow 30th March - 3rd April (5 Days)

 A FACE TO DIE FOR

 

Pure nostalgia:  London in the swinging sixties - about a young graduating art student, Annabel Spencer, and her eventual rise to fame as a fashion designer. How a strikingly beautiful girl whom she meets for a brief period at college becomes pivotal to her success and how these two women's careers and love lives become uncannily intertwined.  

It tells an intriguing love story hampered by loose morals, drug taking and emotional conflict - at a time when anything risqué goes - and frequently does. This novel reveals the scandal and glamour of a fascinatingly decadent and revolutionary period in history.
