Oh my word it's been an exciting week and it's only Wednesday!
On Monday the Joan Hessayon Award contenders were announced and I was thrilled that It Started At Sunset Cottage is on the list. The Romantic Novelists' Association is amazingly supportive and this award is just another way that it showcases new authors that have come through its New Writer's Scheme. Yet again the list of contenders is chock full of first class reads.The full shortlist for 2016 is:
The winner will be announced at the RNA Summer Party in four weeks time which is always a lovely evening, so I can't wait!
As if that weren't enough excitement for one week, yesterday Harper Impulse did a cover reveal for my second book 'A Family Holiday' which is due out on 16th June. It is such a summery cover and it displays a terrific quote from the lovely Katie Fforde who has been so supportive.
And today it is full on sunshine in the UK. I think I need to go for a lie down in the sun with a cool drink and a custard cream!
