It’s release day for SAFE HARBOUR! We’re celebrating, bobbing at anchor in Horseshoe Bay off Peel Island, with an early coffee while we watch the sunrise.

A huge thank you is in order!
I’ve just had the most fabulous weekend down in Sydney with Capt G attending the Australian Romance Readers Award dinner at Cello’s restaurant.

I’m being sociable!
After a wicked week at work, feeling like Chicken Little and wondering if the sky was really going to fall in, I’ve hit the weekend and collapsed in a heap. What better way to recover than to throw off the mooring lines and head to the bay. I’ve also fitted in a visit to Rowena Continue reading

She always gets her man?
Of course! And why wouldn’t she? Isn’t everyone a sucker for a happy ending?? Last Friday in Melbourne I hope Leigh Redhead, Bronwyn Parry, Cheryl Wright and I convinced the audience we all need some optimism in our lives. And if we didn’t, we had fun trying! The panel discussion at the Sisters In Crime Continue reading
Writing process? What writing process?
The lovely Jenn J McLeod tagged me last week in a post about our writing process. No stranger to embracing a second chance or trying something different, Jenn took the first tentative steps towards her tree change in 2004, escaping Sydney’s corporate chaos to buy a small cafe in the seaside town of Sawtell. Moving Continue reading
