25.01.2022 Meet Lizzy, the new addition to Leas' love story and the star of her own book. My current project is splitting a previously six POV novel into three individual stories. Lea's is the one that needs the most work and I've given her what I'm calling a Puppy Plot! Lizzy will help Lea change and open her heart to love again. This is going to be lots of fun! I'm very excited. #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
25.01.2022 Today I need a little bit of magic as I begin turning 25000 words of my old manuscript into its own 50000 word book. Fun, fin, fun! There's also going to be a very lovable dog. ... #amwriting #amwritingromance #romancewriters #romancewriter #romancewritersofinstagram #writer #writers #writersofinstagram #genielamp #teapot #disneyfan #disneyaladdin #genielampteapot #disneylover
25.01.2022 Draft Two is complete! This story seems to have come together quite nicely. I'm very pleased and have had a lot of fun gallivanting around the UK with my hero and heroine. #amwriting #amwritingromance #romancewriter #romancewriters #writer #writers #romancenovel
24.01.2022 I'm over the beginning hurdles of Victoria's story and hope that it will be smooth sailing from here. This is going to be a fun and emotional journey for Victoria as she transcends her grief and finds love. #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
24.01.2022 It is slightly reworked from an old story, but my brand new manuscript is going along wonderfully! I do love Gabriella's story as she ventures to England and ends up starting a new life. Lots of fun things to explore! #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
22.01.2022 I have these two gorgeous puppies on my desk - Lizzy the cavalier and Brodie the Scottie - both featured in my Rivenhall Manor stories. Both are such cute doggy characters and so much fun to write about ... #amwriting #amwritingromance #romancewriter #romancewriters #romancewritersofinstagram #writer #writers #writersofinstagram #deskdecor #writersdesk #dog #dogs #dogcharacter

20.01.2022 Here's my painting of Lizzy! Lizzy is an orphaned King Charles Cavalier who finds her forever home with my Finnish heroine Lea. Lizzy takes an immediate liking to her new mummy and helps Lea find her way to love. She also loves listening to music and is a great audience for Lea as she prepares for her music school audition. ... #painting #paintings #painter #art #artist #artistsofinstagram #petportrait #puppyportrait #animalart #dog #dogs #dogpainting #dogportrait #kingcharlescavalier #puppypainting #authorartist
19.01.2022 I do really love this! ... #romancewriter #romancewriters #writer #writers #writingaward #award
18.01.2022 Honestly the best book I have read all year. I love ballet and a medical conflict, so this one was a winner. Such an inspirational and gripping story. ... #amreading #reading #reader #book #books #bookrecommendation #bookreview #goodbook #memoir #bookstagram #novel #novels #bestbookever #ballet #inspirationalbooks
17.01.2022 I've reached 10,000 words in Lea's story today! She has come to her 'arrangement' with Grayson after a romantic walk around an English estate and a discussion about art. I gave Grayson my experience of visiting my first art museum - he didn't know the first thing about art so went in search of the Ninja Turtles in London's National Gallery - Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael and Donatello. I love it when I can throw an experience like that into my books. It's so much fun. :) #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
15.01.2022 3500 words today. The book is moving along beautifully and I'm having a great time with this book. Tonight, Lea had her first taste of fruit loops! It was an interesting breakfast for my Finnish heroine. #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
14.01.2022 2400 words tonight. My characters are in denial about their feelings. One will soon realise it and then the real fun will begin. The story has also taken an unexpected turn, meaning the book up to this point has another goal to what the rest of the book will be, so I will end up with another very messy first draft. But that is the fun of writing. Sometimes things just don't work out the way you'd expect them to. I have, however, found a marvellous blog about Finland which will help me flesh out Lea just a little bit more. :) #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
12.01.2022 Gabby's book was a bit of work, Lea's was a looooot of work, but now I get to work on Victoria, which should be easy breezy. I started her book today! I love Victoria's love story and her journey through grief. Probably because I'm completely in love with her hero? Oh, this is going to be a fun project! #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
10.01.2022 OMG, 4 days and the two best books I've read in ages. Cannot wait for more books in this series over the coming years. These were masterful stories! ... #amreadingfiction #amreading #amreadingcrime #amreadingthrillers #reading #book #books #bookrecommendation #bookstagram #booklover #crimenovel #crimefiction #psychologicalthriller #thrillernovel #crimebooks
08.01.2022 I finished Lea's story today! It was tricky, but I'm proud of what I've created and how this story developed. I had lots of fun with American foods, cute puppies, and classical music. Now some tweaking, a well deserved break, and I get cracking on the next one! #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
08.01.2022 Reached over 10000 words today. I'm loving the banter between my hero and heroine. They don't get along and are work rivals, which makes for some tense scenes and a very enjoyable writing experience. Having lots of fun! #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
02.01.2022 2200 words today and Lea has fallen in love...with a puppy! Lizzy has formed an immediate attachment to her new mummy and Lea can't deny that the little dog is adorable, especially when Lizzy adores listening to Lea play the violin. Oh, such fun to write. #romancewriter #amwriting #amwritingromance
