about me

First of all:
Thank you to everyone who has been kind enough to back and/or comment on my book. I try to make time to thank each person but sometimes I lose track and it may take me a while to catch up. Please know that your support, and particularly your advice, is very much appreciated.

My book:
"New Beginnings" is the first title in a fictional trilogy. I'm looking for advice and guidance, and constructive criticism of my work - I welcome your comments and advice, even if you don't feel inclined to back my book.

I've categorised it as 'romance' but it's not all hearts and flowers; there are tears as well as laughter, and the book includes adult themes (see tags) and unresolved conflicts. It's not a happy-skippy dance in the park, but then neither is real life, is it?

Authonomy:
As an Authonomy member, I accept invitations to read others' books, but will not back anything I don't like. When I first joined Authonomy I was tricked into the "you back my book and I'll back yours" arrangement a few times, with no reciprocal support. I've learned to be a little more discerning and that approach won't work with me any more, so if you invite me to swap reads, I feel it's only courteous that you should go first ;)
