SWAG, glorious swag! A view of the Uk LGBT Writers meet

So, am wittering on today about the weekend's meet and how wrong, wrong wrong it is to get a chest infection a few days before and consequently miss the chocolate torte. Darn. Some compensation , though, in the wonderful swag bag, the contents of which are scattered in artful confusion on my hotel dressing table:

Over at the website, as per.

And we're off...

I'm wittering on over at the website about uneven chapter lengths and you just would not *believe* the angst.  What do you all do? Write the chapters as they come or strive to get them all an even length? Do tell.

But as compensation for demanding you answer intrusive questions like that, here's a picture of the gorgeous Matt Bomer, who is Shield Captain Bennet to the life. Soooooo inspirational.

Hitting a century

Over at my website I'm celebrating and mourning this:

A Minor Inconvenience - but a major triumph!

Over at my website, read an exclusive extract from Sarah Granger's wonderful Regency m/m romance, where there are dashing Napoleonic war officers, uniforms, balls, Almacks, French spies and BREECHES!!!  Follow her blog tour here  and enter for giveaways and generally just join in the delighted squeeing.

The Writer's Guide to Page Numbering

Over at my website I have succumbed to Sarah Madison's nagging to post a response to four questions on writing:

What am I working on?
How does it differ from other books in the genre?
Why do I write what I do?

I am, as ever, long winded about it but there are lots of pictures to brighten things up a tad. You'll like the one of Molly. You even get a bonus one here: 

I've tagged Kate Aaron and Lily G. Blunt to do the meme and they will post their answers to the questions on 12 May. Stay tuned to find out what makes them tick!

Is it summer yet?

Join me at my website for my contribution to QueerTown Abbey's latest blog hop. It has everything from beach ponies to Marquesses. Real ones, in both cases.

Good title, huh?

Sigh. You know, this sort of thing wouldn’t happen to me if only I did concise.

On another note, the first batch of my new pens has arrived from the US and they are gorgeous. Honestly, I’d never buy promotional pens here in the UK. The US company has a huge range of very affordable stock, heaps better than anything you can buy here. The only problem is that the US company doesn’t do overseas trade, so I have to get a lovely friend there to buy them and ship them. So a huge thank you goes to artist and sculptor Shelley Hunter for being a true friend. Go and check out her website and admire her work.
