The book, Murder in Bloom, is about to wing its way to the publishers at last. It's been a struggle, but who said being a novelist was easy?
Much excersised by media controversy surrounding the exploitation of one's own children. I am now very wary of reporting anything to do with my hugely talented, beautiful and extraordinary children! (Do hope they read this.) I have recently reported the birth of my grandaughter, Kitty; perhaps I shouldn't have? However, that was included in the newspaper report of my burglary (don't ask - will post a picture of the placard), so is in the public domain. What I haven't reported is that one of those hugely talented etc etc, Phillipa, has gained a place at the Royal Academy of Music, one of the most prestigious conservatoires in the world. This is a huge step towards her dream, which has been held since she was 12. She has achieved her degree in Music, she teaches it and performs, but this would be the pinnacle. So now we're going all out for sponsorship. Anybody got any ideas?
Youngest of above mentioned etc etc, Leo arrives for a week's visit today. Aah, my baby's coming home...

Congrats on sending the script off! I too sometimes blog about my kids - hangs head in same and sneeks out.

I suppose busking in the local shopping centre wouldn't do it?
Liz, I'm waiting for the rewrites and panicking because I haven't heard anything. Expecting to have it slung back at me.
Jan - me or her?
A double act?
Bring your tambourine and we'll make it a trio.
