Latest News
I have received lots of great feedback on Libertine from published authors, VWC members, family, friends and colleagues. I am rewriting the first chapters, and plan to post chapter one on this site for you to read. Those of you who have read the first draft, expect changes!!
I have been researching locations and will be going for a personal tour of one of them which I'm very excited about. I'll post a link when I've been, it's somewhere I visited often throughout my childhood so look forward to working on that section of the book.
Beyond that I won't be giving away any further plot details (otherwise you won't read it if it gets published!) but I will tell you more about the book as it develops, how I deal with blocks, plot problems, character development and so on, keep checking in and feel free to blog me!
