THE WAIT IS NEARLY OVER... BUT THE STORY ISN'T!
January, which used to be a nightmare month when I was an
accountant wrestling with clients’ tax returns, proved inspirational this year.
I drew down the blind in my study to shut out the gloomy weather, set to work
and wrote. Thousands of words later the month end came and went, and on 8th
February I wrote those extraordinary final words: ‘The End’. Off went the story
to my wonderful beta reader in Australia and one here in the UK who always takes a little longer.
The week which followed was tricky. As an author I always
wonder what my readers will feel as they read my words; I live in hope of their
enjoyment, but I never expect it. I’ve poured my heart into this one,
determined to up my game and make it something special, but you never know.
Well the good news is that my Australian reader has given it the thumbs up – and more!
I have a few amendments and a little polishing to do, as well as a cover to
finalize, but as soon as it’s ready to release I’ll let you know.
In the meantime, if you haven't read the first volume 'Losing Time' - what are you waiting for? Head over to my website to read a preview and purchase a copy. www.prfordauthor.com
Now I need to get on - there's quite a bit of work still to do! I leave you with a photo from my garden this week. It appears I'm not the only one for whom inspiration has blossomed...
