I have been writing my HEAs for longer than I’ve been doing almost anything else. Some actions run through our lives like golden threads through mist. On the good days, I’m writing. On the bad days, I’m writing. On the really bad days, I sometimes have to kick my butt to get into it, but I keep writing.
I’ve often been told ‘it looks like madness’ to those who don’t pursue such an outlet with such single-mindedness, but it doesn't feel like that to me. It's my sanity, my golden thread, and it matters because stories matter.
There have been many suggestions throughout my life that I ‘give it up’, that I put my words away and I have tried – but writing always calls me back. The desire to create, to write. draws me like a compulsion and my commitment to telling stories and drawing out my characters has been stronger than ever in 2020.
That’s why, when my readers feel moved by my writing to nominate my works for awards, I literally tear up with gratitude. Thank you for reading my books, for sticking with me and loving my characters.
I am delighted to announce that my recent releases have been nominated for the following awards:
