Hi Kate! So lovely to welcome you back to my blog - I'm so excited for the release of A VICARAGE WEDDING! Let's kick off your visit with a few of my probing questions...
1.)
What is your favourite thing about yourself? My
sense of humour, although I probably find myself funnier than I am.
2.)
What do you wish you’d known before you started
writing? That my identity and worth is not related to my success as a writer.
3.)
4.)
Share a romantic moment in your life. I came
home from a trip and my husband had cleaned the whole house, folded the
laundry, and done the grocery shopping. That is the most romantic thing he
could have done J
5.)
Is there one subject you’d never write about as
an author? What is it? I’d never say never—I never want to get too preachy in
my books, and some hot-button political issues I’d probably stay away from.
6.)
Do you have any suggestions to help someone
become a better writer? If so, what are they? Write as often as you can, and
finish projects, whether it is a book, a short story, or a poem. The more you
finish, the more you learn and grow in confidence.
7.)
If you could be the original author for any
book, what would it be? Why? Harry Potter, for obvious monetary reasons! Or
Remains of the Day, because it’s such a beautiful book and one of my
favourites.
8.)
What did you do growing up that got you into
trouble? I was actually a pretty good kid! But I once wrote something rude on a
chalkboard on school and got in big trouble, and was so scared by it that I
never did it again!
9.)
If I came to your house for dinner what would
you prepare for me? Why? Something warm and comforting—chicken pot pie or beef
lasagne. Hopefully you’re not a vegetarian J
Blurb: Rachel
Holley has always dreamed of a wedding—the white dress, the fairy tale, and of
course, the happily-ever-after. But when her fiancé breaks it off the night
before, claiming she doesn’t love him, Rachel’s fairy tale ends in ashes.
Homeless, hopeless, and feeling like her life has been completely derailed, Rachel must start over in all sorts of ways—and hold her head up high in the fishbowl of her tiny village. The last person she expects to become a friend is Sam West, the taciturn owner of The Bell, Thornthwaite’s rougher pub, and a little rough around the edges of himself.
But as Rachel gets to know Sam, and sees him caring for his orphaned nephew, she finds herself drawn to this enigmatic man. Nothing about Sam is what Rachel expected in a life partner, and yet she can’t deny their increasing closeness. But can love flourish on the rebound? And will there be a vicarage wedding after all?
