Hello to all blog readers,
I’ve been busy beavering away since Christmas on making the manuscript for Lady Dixon’s Niece sing! This meant a fair bit of re-jigging and some re-writes too. Time is always my biggest hurdle – or the lack thereof, with a full-time job as a teacher and a child, dog and house to look after, never mind just the simple act of managing life stuff!
I’m delighted to let you know that I’m finally ready to seek out agents and publishers in a meaningful way. A lot of people have been asking me over the past year or so and I always say I’m nearly ready to approach publishing houses or agents, but I’m thrilled to say I’m there!!! And while I’m very apprehensive about how it will all go, I think I’ve finally wrestled long enough with my confidence issues and am at the point where it’s either going to resonate or not!
Please take a look at the chapter titles and I’ll drop a little more reading your way soon 🙂
