    Call for submissions!

    I thought that title had a cool ring to it, like when big publishing houses announce they’re going to accept (and possibly even read) unsolicited manuscripts for the next 30 minutes – so you better get your submissions in fast! Sorry, this is not that exciting. If at all. I’m…

    Are you on Instagram?

    If you are, I would absolutely love to connect with you over there. I try to follow back everyone from WordPress, but sometimes I miss people (it’s much easier to guess who you are when you have a ‘WordPress’ link in your bio.) Feel free to send me a message…

    9 reasons why you should self-publish

    Many of you will know that I am considering self-publishing my novels. It’s not something that I’ve considered lightly as I know going it alone is not easy and there’s still a fair bit of stigma attached to self-publishing. However, I really do believe the benefits far outweigh the negatives.…

    When you are still single and a romance writer

    This feels like a running joke of I know what you did last summer. February 14th is the one day of the year I would love to have a SO, yet I always come up short. Maybe that’s the problem. I love being on my own for the other 364…

    How did I REALLY get 6,000 followers?

    This is a reply to an email I received from a lovely follower who wanted to know ‘my secret’. I don’t think there really is a secret, but over the years I have definitely learned a few tips and tricks from observing (and asking) the greats. In general, these are…

    Hope, all the hope

    This was originally titled ‘Rejection, all the rejection’, then I read The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F***, and I thought, what the hell is wrong with me? Even just reading the word ‘rejection’ gets me down. Ain’t nobody got time for that. There is a theme upon which my…

    The One Left Behind: Part 2

    Part 1 Sybil My family think I have my head in the clouds. For years I have rebelled and protested against their assumptions, refusing to be painted into a box of their choosing. Funny thing is, they’re right, I do have my head in the clouds. It’s even possible that…

    The Nine Newbies of WordPress

    Once upon a time I was a little blogging newbie who started a blog on WordPress with no clue what she was doing. I didn’t even know there was a WordPress Reader. I still remember the first time I clicked the READER button. I was like, what the hell is this??…

    Guess who got published? Louise Allan!

    Yep not me, this post is all about the lovely Louise Allan and her debut book, The Sisters’ Song. It’s surreal watching a blogging buddy fly above and beyond to such new and unimaginable heights. I’ve been following Louise closely after coming across her wonderfully popular ‘Writer’s in the Attic’ series. It…

    Want to publish that novel? Moi aussi, allons-y!

    I have a long history of starting stories, and never really finishing them. I started writing my first ‘proper’ book when I was 18. It was called Evie and featured a university-aged girl who wakes up five years in the future – a future in which all her dreams have…
