I have the Valentine's Day workshop in Brigg Lincolnshire on - well, obviously on Valentine's Day next week and then straight after that I'm travelling to Wales for the Fishguard Writers' Weekend to teach Writing Romance for the wonderful residential weekend there. I love this weekend and am so looking forward to it. We have a lot of fun, discuss writing, do some great writing exercises, drink a little wine . . .
And of course I have the small matter of a book to write myself. Health problems and family crises have interrupted my creative process viciously so I'm fighting to get back on track. I really think that the workshops and talking about writing and discussing the process will help with this so if I'll be seeing you there, then you'll be helping me as well as I'll be helping you!
And - a special message for Maria for her comment on my Tote Bags 'N' Blogs post on Sunday - you mentioned Girl About Town as the first M&B you found down the back of a sofa in 1975 - and said you couldn't recall the author. Could it be this one?
Don't you just love the diesmbodied heads and the 'sophisticated' hero Sean lighting up a cigarette - I mentione d that smoking was so much more common in thoese earlier books - I recall one where the hero was driving his sports car along some narrow, windy moutain road in Italy or somewhere and he lit a cigarette as he drove along. And of course no one was wearing a seat belt then! Anyway, Maria if this is the book you remember - there is a single copy available on Amazon right now.
Oh - and the 'oldie' of mine you mentioned - Bedded By The Greek Billionaire, that came out in 2008 and sold out on the M&B site but is still available in ebook. It's also being reprinted in a Greek Affairs collection coming up in May.
