Plans and Godrevy

Thanks to everyone for their contributions to my writing dilemma. As I write, I await results of the Festival of Romance New Talent Award tomorrow – not that I think I have a hope of winning, but having got that far has made me realise I need to start sending that novel out. It must have some merit to have got this far.

I am also, in addition to trying to get more journalism work and doing my walks, going to put together proposals for both non-fiction books and see what happens. After all, if you open enough doors, something has to happen (to misquote whoever that was).

Life is, as ever, busy, with my dear friend Viv still away in London fighting family problems – she is much missed by me and Titch by Molls. My boating mate has to leave early, so our winter boating days are at a temporary halt, but leave fabulous memories. But singing continues apace, with several gigs to look forward to, and our Prussia Cove musical weekend very soon.

Yesterday we went down to Godrevy to walk along the cliffs and look at the seals (which were too far away to get pictures of) but above is a glimpse of what we saw. There's nothing like the power of the sea to put things into perspective, and an afternoon spent with dear friends is very special.
And here's another one.



And more news – my website will be live shortly. Will send you a link as soon as it does. If you’d like to exchange links, please let me know.

Thanks Paula. I don't think it#s possible to stop!

Stay optimistic; you have every right to be ;-) We live a couple of miles from the sea and it is a very calming place to put thoughts into perspective.

Thanks CJ - I'm normally a fairly glass half full sort of person.

All best wishes for the Festival of Romance. Some photos would be lovely too, if possible.

Glad to hear that the glass is half full!
