An apology and, an update…

 

 'The Human Jigsaw' - Let its journey begin...

‘The Human Jigsaw’ – Let its journey begin…

‘Hmm, sorry not to have written, publicly, a word for so long, though my reasons are good. Slavery to creativity being the first one, not knowing when to step back and do something else the second, but I have been incredibly productive in creating my second novel; ‘The Human Jigsaw.’ It is now complete, and I am thrilled with it. And so now; meetings back and forth with London agents and publishers is the new ritual, but ‘oh so’ worth it. And as soon as I know a launch date for ‘The Human Jigsaw,’ you will then be the next to know, I promise – and a plan to update this page every fortnight or so.’

Changes to my life that might be worth a mention…

‘There is also something that I need to share with you – let me think? Umm…oh yes, and quite a change this one. Having lived in the Midlands for thirty-seven years, Sarah, Izzy and I have a new home, the three of us now live on the coast, two miles outside of Dartmouth, South Devon. What a place, and what a fabulous time we are having. Every day I count my lucky stars for enabling me to do what I do; to write freely, without the obstruction of needing to chase a wage. It may have taken me ten years to complete my first novel ‘The Water’s Edge,’ it may have felt as though it would never find its way into the public domain, but it did. I am here to tell you; ‘little steps get you where you want to be!’ And so it is, as I sit here at my writing desk, an unspoilt vista of varying colours of the sea, the sound of waves crashing against the rocks at the bottom of our garden, that inspiration is never going to be a problem, it actually never was a problem, but this place makes sure of it. And it is you, all of you, that allowed this to happen for me, all-of-you that purchased ‘The Water’s Edge,’ either the paperback book or the eBook, just an incredible response, so without question, it is because of every single one of you that I am now free to write for hours on end every single day, so thank you!’
