It's a blog fest!!!

Helloooo!!!

Well, March will soon be upon us and I am SO excited to be able to post my very first guest blogger, Cate Masters, on the 2nd!! Cate is a astoundingly prolific author who writes for several publishers with great success. She is also incredibly generous and supportive with other writers and constantly offers congratulations and commiserations to her fellow writers. I very much look forward to reading her blog. Be sure to check back on Tuesday! I have posted just one of her many book covers as a tantalising teaser...

As for me, well, I too have a busy March planned with guest blogs, interviews and contests. Come Monday I will be interviewed at The Romance Studio (www.theromancestudio.com) as well as kicking off a contest to win a paperback copy of The Sharp Points of a Triangle and a rhinestone necklace at Coffee Time Romance (www.coffeetimeromance.com). In addition to this, I am guest blogging at Cate's blog (catemasters.blogspot.com) and making a guest appearance at the Naughty Novelists section of author, Cherie De Sues website (www.cheriedesues2.com/naughty-novelists.html).

Phew!!! Busy, busy, busy!! And I love it!!!

Happy Birthday to my little girl!

So sorry to be a little slack this week - I have (and still am!) sick with a tummy bug that is driving me insane! Feeling a little better today so desperately trying to catch up before my eldest daughter's birthday tomorrow. She will be 11 - how can 11 years pass just like that? it seems like yesterday I was begging the midwife to push her back in and forget about me giving birth altogether, LOL!

Anyway, I wanted to use today's post to basically brag about the success of THE SHARP POINTS OF A TRIANGLE so far ;)...I am THRILLED with the reviews by both reviewers and readers. I have received so many kind emails via my website from readers saying they devoured the book in a couple of days or that it kept them up to the early hours. Believe me, there is no better compliment an author can receive than knowing you've stopped someone getting their usual shut-eye!

And as for the reviews?? Well, have a look for yourself...not bad at all, people, not bad at all!

I am excited at the guest list building up for March - can't wait to learn more about my fellow romance authors and their books.

Feel free to post your comments on Triangle or any of my books - I LOVE hearing from readers!

Congratulations, Becky!!!

I have just picked the winner for the contest I have had running on Suzannah Safi's Romance Alley for the last fortnight so please join me in offering huge congratulations to Becky of Tennessee, USA!! I really hope Becky loves Hannah and Jamie's journey as much as I did creating it. The Sharp Points of a Triangle was a joy to write and I thank Eternal Press from the bottom of my heart for making the story real!

My latest news to share is I have decided to open my blog to other romance authors who write for either of my two publishers,The Wild Rose Press and Eternal Press. I will be put up a schedule as and when the requested dates start coming in. This will give all my lovely readers a chance to discover the talented and brilliant writers I am proud to share my publishing journey with.

I will be interviewed by Dawn Roberto this week who runs Love Romances Cafe - I will post details here when I know the interview is going live. I had so much fun last week meeting new people and members of the Romantic Novelists Association, that this week is going to feel positively boring, LOL! Onwards and upwards, the good news is, the first draft of book number six will be finished within days - without fail!

See you soon!
