Gees, how did two weeks disappear since my last post?
I’m sure someone is purposely speeding up the days and months just to annoy me. And it will be Easter in two weeks – where’s the year going??
I have been busy, designing and selling staircases at my day job at Slattery & Acquroff Holdings – www.stairking.com.au - and hitting the revisions at night.
I’m happy to say that things are slowly…very slowly…coming together on the book and with some long weekends coming up, I’m hoping to have a full first draft by the end of the month.
Apart from that, I’ll be helping some gorgeous people celebrate birthdays. On Saturday, my beautiful niece Jessica turned six. This Sunday, it’s my brother Paul’s birthday. And on the 25th, it’s Mum’s turn to celebrate.
With all these parties, it’s making losing weight that little bit harder. But I’m slowly heading towards my goal – another 10 kgs to go. Quite happy with what I’ve achieved – 27 kgs in about 2 years. Now if only I can find a way to enjoy waking up at 5.20am to hit the treadmill.
Have fun!

I'm Back!
I’m back. Did you miss me?
The past few weeks have been harrowing, spending treasured moments with my godmother then watching her laid to rest. The funeral was a wonderful and fitting send off for a truly gorgeous woman. Rest in peace, Aunt Agnes.
Since then, I’ve cleared the decks (and my office desk) to get into my requested revisions, but…haven’t started them yet. Made notes regarding the heroine’s new conflict, tweaked the synopsis and figured out what scenes needed to be cut, revised or kept. Interesting stuff.
I’m hoping to finish the draft of the revised three chapters in the next two weeks, then roughly lay out the rest of the book. Once that’s done, it’s final revisions and then forwarding to ‘my’ editor at Desire. I hope she likes it.
Keep your fingers crossed for me.
All the best
