Brought home from Leigh's Abby Gaines' 'The Diaper Diaries' - it's a good read! Really likeable hero and heroine and subtle writing - makes me realise I'm a bit over-the-top with the conflict and my characters are overwrought by comparison - I need to go back to the drawing board!

I had invited a speaker to the next meeting of RWNZ but unfortunately she's declined. Anyone have any bright ideas to make the next meeting as inspirational as the last one?

My son emailed me this morning from the U.K. He and his partner are going to visit a friend in Portugal. The friend's name is Chase Valentin and that's why I'm writing this post - what a fabulous name for a romantic hero - you wouldn't read about it!

Remember to sign your name on your post

Hi
Because, hopefully, many of us will use the blog to communicate with each other, it's probably necessary to sign your name at the end so we know who is talking!

Well - I've fulfilled the commitment made at Leigh's on Saturday - I've begun a new romance novel. No title but my hero and heroine have names. I don't know what they look like yet. This bit is the easy bit - it's keeping the story going that I find so hard - I generally run out after the third chapter. People who committed to a chapter a week are amazing!

Romance Writers March meeting

I've just set up my own blog so not sure what I'm doing - it'll take me a while to figure out how it all works. First time I've posted on here.

Had a really lovely afternoon at Leigh's in Te Awamutu - great to catch up with everyone and be inspired to write fiction again after a long lay-off.
