Book review: The Dry by Jane Harper
If you’re anything like me you like to read across genres. Sometimes I feel like reading a romance, sometimes a thriller or a mystery…it’s so good to have so many choices these days! The Dry by Jane Harper was recommended to me by lots of different people. A murder in a drought ridden Australian small…
Read MoreComing soon….Something Secret
Er…yes, it’s a book title! I’m not just announcing that I’m doing something secret…LOL I did agonise over the name of the book. How to encapsulate a 62,000 word story in a couple of words? For my traditionally published books I don’t get a say in the title or the cover, but for my self…
Read MoreTravel planning – bag for a 9 week trip
My husband has a sabbatical coming up and we’re taking advantage and going traveling for 9 weeks, leaving near the end of March and entering Europe’s spring (we hope! The ‘Beast from the East’ icy blast has made us rethink our packing needs a little!). One of the joys of being an empty nester is…
Read MoreNew medical romance cover reveal!
I’m what you call a HYBRID author…this means some of my books are published with a traditional publisher (Harlequin Mills and Boon and Harper Collins) and some of them I publish myself. For the ones I self-publish I get to oversee every part of the publishing process, but for the trad published ones I have…
Read MoreSomething Borrowed series inspiration
I’m often asked where I get ideas from and, after 24 books, whether I’m running out of things to write about. But I always say that everyone has a story and I’m a good listener- there’s always heaps of inspiration out there! Of course, I’d never write about anyone’s particular experiences, but I may ‘borrow’…
Read MoreTGIF! Film review: Victoria and Abdul
Last night was the first girls’ night out in a long time. We’re all busy bringing up families and working etc, but decided we needed to go out and have some fun. We had a lovely Italian meal, wine (a little to much) and a movie which made us laugh and (almost) cry. Not a…
Read MoreCrochet progress, finished wip!
I try to make Wednesday a ‘work in progress’ update and today I should have blogged about my latest book (working title: “book 23” because I am so creative that’s all I can come up with!! No, actually, I lie… I’m thinking of calling it ‘Something Beginning With Mistletoe’ …it’s a Christmas book, but you…
Read MoreThe Other Life Of Charlotte Evans release day!
Exciting news!! My new women’s fiction novel is now live where all good ebooks can be bought! I’m so excited about this book! It’s a side step away from romance, although there are romantic elements and all the usual things you’d expect from a Louisa George book: humour, a little heat and a satisfying emotional…
Read MoreTGIF! Batman strikes again!
I’ve had a lifelong fear/hatred of bats. Little mice with wings that can get tangled in your hair (it happened to my mum when she was 14, so maybe I’ve just inherited her fear). The horror! So imagine if a bat got into your house, somehow. Let’s just say things didn’t go well for this…
Read MoreCrochet is the new black!
Did you know that crochet is the new black? Everyone’s doing it and loving it! The choices of yarn are growing and people are wanting to get back to that ‘homemade’ feel. It’s all part of the ‘maker movement’ that artists, musicians and writers are embracing. It’s the first day of spring here in New…
