🌟 Cover Reveal! 📚 "Vintage Dreams: She had to nearly die before she could live again. Can she build a new life on the embers of her old one? Join me in unveiling the captivating cover of my upcoming novel about love, second chances, and the power of dreams. Stay tuned for more updates! 💖 

For the past five days I've been delivering a self-paced memoir writing workshop online with Writing NSW. The course content is released every day and students complete writing assignments that they critique for each other and that I provide feedback on. 

It is such a privilege teaching memoir and reading extraordinary lessons and experiences that people have experienced. So many promising memoirs that can contribute to new understanding of the human experience and I wish these emerging writers the best of luck moving forward in their writing journey. 

I also want to think Writing NSW for booking me to develop and deliver this writing workshop and Rochelle for all her feedback and support. I love teaching and it's such a joy to be able to share my love of creative writing in various settings.

I love school holidays!!!!! It's such a joy to have my creative juices flowing. Have been firmly focussed on fiction. In writing updates I'm working on the second book in my contemporary romance trilogy, Dreams of Destiny, published as Mae Archer. The first book is Hollywood Dreams, which is out and is being recorded as an audiobook. 

The second is titled Vintage Dreams. I wrote a draft and submitted to my then romance publisher, however they folded. I went back and re-read the draft and there was some tightening of the structure to be done, but the bones are strong and I love the story so much. The cover to this book has also been years in the marking with an image that I bought and wanted to use. So I'm just a few scenes away from having a complete draft and can submit to my proofreader. 

I'm also working on a romance novella for an anthology I'm taking part in with many other romance novelists. This is about summer romance and I'm going to write a series about a family and the first one is a little bit of Romeo and Juliet vibe. I woke up this morning and the first scenes were crystal clear in my mind so I've been experiencing that joy of writing something new and fresh and fun.

This is the second book in the Sassy Saints Series, the first book was Sabiha's Dilemma which I've not read but definitely will.
Alma and her family have moved into a new area and then Alma then has to attend a new school and make new friends - she also finds out she has a half sister.
Loved the way the author wrote about the difficulties of being a teenager but also how she writes about current everyday issues: drinking alcohol, drugs and sexual encounters.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story and will read the others - highly recommended!
