In a couple of days Border Watch will be available as an ebook on the iBook Apple site! I’m very excited that Hachette has joined the e-revolution, though a little nervous as well… Booksellers have been incredibly supportive, hand-selling Border Watch to a stack of happy customers and I thank them for that. I’d hate Continue reading

It’s that time of year! The bees have been buzzing their little wings off and the hive is full of honey 🙂 My mate Jack with one of the full frames
Karly Blakemore-Mowle
I’m very excited to be able to welcome another Australian Romantic Suspense author, Karly Blakemore-Mowle, to my blog today! Karly’s a very prolific author with three books released this year.

Green Ant Dance
Gardening in the tropics has many perils. (Most of them involve men with chainsaws or the over zealous use of pruning equipment – normally by my husband…) We had a half yearly cut-back yesterday and mother  nature got her revenge 🙂 In the photo my husband is performing the Green Ant Dance.

Tropical Writers Festival
Wow! I’ve just had a fabulous (but exhausting) weekend at the Tropical Writers Festival in Cairns. There is something very uplifting about spending an entire weekend with people who are passionate about books. As always the differences in opinions about the merits of one book versus another were intriguing and the Biggest Book Club certainly Continue reading
Disney Downunder – (This is for Sandy and other fish lovers :-)
Following on from a blog post earlier this week, Bron sent me a photo of the three storey castle in the fish tank Wolfie’s goldfish call home. Try as I might I couldn’t upload it into the original post, but I was so impressed I decided it needed a post of its own. Being more Continue reading
Room to edit!
Phew… I’ve just walked back to my hotel in Sydney after slotting my latest edits for Shattered Sky into the Express Post Letterbox! I’m relieved, I’m excited and a little sad. There’s still work to be done, but it means that my friends in Shattered Sky are about to get shunted sidewards for my new Continue reading
Money dogs
I checked in for my flight to Sydney today just as the Australian Federal Police arrived to put one of their money dogs through its paces! Lennie, the black labrador did a stirling job of locating the money – you could say he dug up pay dirt I guess 🙂 I didn’t realise Australia used Continue reading
