Author of The Inspector Stone Mysteries
Unfortunately that headline is not a title of an upcoming book in my Inspector Stone Mysteries series, it's something that happened to me at the beginning of the week. Since the first half of the year I have been published through the distribution platform Pronoun, which is owned by MacMillan. I've enjoyed my time with... Continue Reading →
I never considered the possibility that posting about the occasions when my writing journey hasn't gone quite the way it's supposed to (and occasionally when it's gone totally tits up) could be a good thing. I'll have to try and remember this, it's some great advice.
