You may already know that I’m one of seven Love Sabrists – a group of women who met at #RWAus15 – the Romance Writers of Australia Conference in 2015. All different, we banded together to create a collection of short stories (an anthology) all including the phrase ‘sheathe your love sabre.’ Boroughs Publishing Group lovedContinue reading “Love Sabre Q&A”

It’s 19 days to #LoveGoneWild
OMG! Squee! T -19 days and counting until we all go wild at #LoveGoneWild #RWAus17 and… well, I’m just a little bit excited. Love Gone Wild is my third conference, so I’m now an ‘old hand’ – ha! I remember how nervous I was at my first conference (Get Fresh in Melbourne in 2015) andContinue reading “It’s 19 days to #LoveGoneWild”
Winner winner chicken dinner!
Recently I entered a five thousand word story in the inaugural Romance Writers of Australia Spicy Bites competition. The competition required a romantic short story, with a ‘happy ever after’ or a ‘happy for now’ ending, and a sexually explicit storyline. It also required writers to include the specified theme of ‘tattoos.’ I wrote aContinue reading “Winner winner chicken dinner!”
Romancing the Page – a course with Anne Gracie
Like most writers aspiring to be published, I attend a few courses and conferences throughout the year. Some are, of course, better than others but, when the opportunity arose to spend a day with Anne Gracie at the New South Wales Writer’s Centre I knew I’d be mad not to take it. Even if itContinue reading “Romancing the Page – a course with Anne Gracie”
Lascivious

A little 300 word scene starter that may be continued tomorrow. Fastening the black lace between her breasts, she smoothed her hands down over the soft chiffonContinue reading “Lascivious”
Kitchen
It’s ‘K’ day in the A to Z Challenge and I’ve decided to go back to the beginning of my flash fiction journey. I wrote today’s little snippet as my first entry in a flash fiction competition. I didn’t win (I did win the Virgin Award for my first time in the competition) but IContinue reading “Kitchen”
Jewellery
I’m catching up! I certainly wasn’t expecting to be writing this at 9:23 pm today, but I’m here and I am. Today (well, yesterday) was ‘J’ day in the A to Z Challenge and today’s inspiration is jewellery. Who doesn’t love jewellery. And even more so, who doesn’t love Tiffany’s (this first photo is actuallyContinue reading “Jewellery”
Illicit
Whoopsie. I’m a day late and a dollar short… well, just a day late. As always, I had good intentions but my Friday went a little more pear shaped than I had anticipated, so I didn’t get to post. And then I had good intentions of doing it first thing this morning, but that didn’tContinue reading “Illicit”
(Broken) Heart
Tonight I was planning on going old-school with my ‘H’ inspiration as heart. And I was planning to go down a more positive route. But inspiration isn’t really hitting tonight and, what I really want to do, is introduce you to my current main character, Katherine Montgomery. This is a scene from my current work-in-progress thatContinue reading “(Broken) Heart”
