Writing for leisure should be an enjoyable experience, an outlet where you can express your own personal views and tell a story or two. Ian had reached a hiatus to his latest manuscript and decided to ‘down tools’ for a bit so I ‘put the kettle on.’ Working with a new author can be rewarding,…

We’ve all been there before haven’t we? You know, those situations when you say to yourself … “I should really do that now – otherwise I’ll never get it done…” My dear ‘other half ‘ reminisces daily … what Sue had forgotten today, she was adding to the mental list for tomorrow.
