‘How do you mean partner?’ I asked, when we were above the main capsule, alone in an observation platform.
‘You asked about wanting me to partner you, on landing?

Blog postA stone’s throw from the sea. That was a favourite advertising mantra in many a guest house brochure or newspaper advert. As a child, sea, could be seen from two bedrooms. A strip, contrasted with skyline, across fields, dotted pine trees and chimney tops. Some days sea view, almost merged with blue sky.
Three beaches, in walking distance, to invite the swimmer. Meadfoot, was farthest away, and only became favourite, after sea service. So much, is taken for granted, when you liv

Blog postIt was a hurried exit from the flat. Burning the toast, setting off the smoke alarm and flying out of the front door. A lateness detective looking for evidence would have noted the hasty tying of shoes, on the wall by the front gate, mouth still chewing on the remains of buttered toast. Verbal expletives expressed dropping the car keys on the pavement. A jamming of the car seat belt, causing further delay. Clues aplenty, about being driven by lateness. Planning the future.

Blog postThere’s no doubt, there’s a big leap, from that arena of words on paper to dialogue about your novel. One discovery, that can be made, is that your reader can take ownership, which is positive, but can be in conflict with your imagined portrayal of character, situation and intended response.
This can move forward to where a reader will tell you that in the sequel, you the author, must resolve, injustices to a character and make sure perpetrators are brought to justice! Myriad other as -

Blog postBook Title: Write to Unite – all together now. Poem chosen for publication this September, 2020.
Longer days
warmer weather,
allowed one walk.
Trees are near to leaf;
Blossom sprinkles
here and there.
We enjoy still

Blog postA third in maritime series is in progress, but author has plans to adapt – Persuasion’s Price into a stage play. This might well go forward before the completion of the novel. On occasion it’s good to step back from a project to allow time for a plot to kind of ferment. Plots, themselves can be prone to adaptation, or complete change, author has found.
