My Festive Round-up
This year has been extraordinary! Having discovered and been
accepted onto the RNA NWS I have met many authors of varied experience and
success and learned a huge amount about the craft from many of them. Now I also
count several members as friends. Either via Twitter, Facebook or in person we
have shared information and positivity. The fraternity is so supportive.
I received a very helpful critique from my RNA reader and
having carefully considered and reflected upon the advice, I substantially
edited my book. It is currently winging its way around agents, publishers and
has entered a few competitions. Unfortunately some decline to respond at all
and from others I await a verdict.
In the meantime I continue with novel number 3. It is set
between 1912 and 1917 and demands substantial research. More recently I have
written comparatively little as we are involved in packing up the house prior
to moving from France back to England, (I hope. Shhh, fingers crossed).
Everything is very hectic.
I intend to renew my NWS membership for 2015 because the
networking, never mind the book review, has been so positive, useful and
reassuring. After Christmas I intend to really get cracking again on my novel –
‘The Strong Sisters of WW1’ and to decide what to do with ‘Sense and French
Ability’ if it is unsuccessful with the traditional route.
Thank you to Heidi-Jo for inviting me to write this and
seasonal best wishes to all good friends and the wider authors’ fellowship.

Oh I love that title, Ros! Sense and French Ability. Marvellous! Looks like you've had a busy and productive year. I hope 2015 brings you all you wish for.
