To quote a cliche, life is like a roller coaster right now. I am in the throes of frantic promotions and networking, and so far it seems to be working. Although I have no solid sales figures yet, there is genuine interest in my work, and I am revelling in it!

To keep me grounded I have my baby daughter, my dog and my husband. There’s nothing like a day spent washing nappies (we advocate the cloth diaper), washing dishes, walking the dog, and all the other menial but necessary household chores. They are totally worth it for the love of my family.

But never mind all that, I am lost in Redcliffe again! The sequel to Love Hurts (A Redcliffe Novel) is starting to bite, and I’m struggling to leave it alone. Recently, for example, I should have been grocery shopping but I was sitting at the computer, writing away. And the other day I just sat down at the computer ‘for an hour’ and my poor baby was late going to bed because I lost track of time and still had to walk the dog before hubby came home from work. She wasn’t too late though, and I think she forgave me.

It’s a small price to pay for the all-consuming double (albeit imaginary) life that I am currently enjoying.
