About Me

My photo
Hi, welcome to my blog, I am a writer of short stories, children's and YA novels . An acceptance from People's Friend finally made me a published writer! Yeah, happy days! I have since had stories published in The Weekly News and The Last Laugh anthology. My main love is writing children's/YA novels...I'm now enduring a fruitless search for an agent... I also draw and paint, I like to draw animals (usually my adorable crazy cats!)Occasionally famous people and motorcycles.

I decided to give it a go!



I don't have high hopes of completing, but I've never taken part before, so NaNoWriMo here I come...

 I don't know what I'm doing on there, but I finally found the widget above, how does it work, does it update itself??

 Thank you for your lovely comments on yesterday's post!

    You are brave to jump into NaNoMo. I started one year and just couldn't keep up. Good luck.

    Hi Elizabeth,
    Hmmm, well not great, my word count got to a pitiful 10 000, it's actually more like 14k but nowhere near 50, I just couldn't keep up the pace! Still, I have a good idea where my story is going, so at least I have made a good start :)

    I've tried NaNo twice - and froze on November 1st both times, so I'm impressed with 14k. Well done. xx
