I've done it...I've finally put my money, or poetry, where my mouth is and taken one step closer to publication. Yes... I have just sent the MS off to a Copy Editor. Not just any copy editor though, no...only the best for 'My Precious' in the wonderful guise of one Maureen Vincent-Northam.

Time for a change - Part 2
Ok, I tried the dynamic templates and hated them so have tried a different one. Will see how this one pans out over the next few days. Begining to wish that I hadn't started now...
Time for a change
Good afternoon one and all,
I've decided that my blog page needs a bit of a re-vamp. Although it is now easier to read and not as cluttered, I'm not sure if this is the one I want to stick with. It feels a bit impersonal to me and I need to work out how to add a few gadgets and images to make it feel more homely...not easy to do with a toddler on the rampage with a Hobby Horse around the house!

He Spies the Child - (from my poetry book, Encounters)
He stalks through streets where no one cares,
as hookers sell their battered wares.
Where run-a-ways have gone to ground
and Gangland deaths are honour bound.

Book Review - Faylinn Frost and the Snow Fairies - by Trevor Forest
Ever the one to plan ahead, I bought a few of Trevor Forest's books last year for my daughter. (For use as gifts when she can read for herself.)
Despite the fact that she is only two years old, she loves listening to stories, pictures or no pictures and Faylinn Frost is the book I chose to read to her.

Book Review - Deadly Pursuit - A Blood Hunter Novel by Nina Croft
Warning! Do Not crack any eggs near this book; unless you want them fried...This is seriously hot stuff.
This book has great characters, kick ass plot lines, humor and plenty of 'Hot 'n' Heavy' along the way.
