Hi Rosie and the gang,
Thanks so much for your support this year. Can’t tell you how delighted I am to receive this accolade. If I could, I’d dance up and down our street, but nobody wants to witness my ‘Dad Dance’.
Thanks millions, everyone. 🙂

Dear Rosie and Team, I am, as they say, made up . . . after discovering that I am runner-up in the ‘contemporary’ category of the #RBRT awards for SCOTCH ON THE ROCKS. What a fabulous way to end the year, especially as I have almost finished my next novel. This will spur me on to get it out there with all possible haste. Many congratulations to all the other winners, runners up and nominees – readers need look no further when they are stuck for something to read.

Many thanks to the fabulous Rosie Amber and her team of reviewers for choosing SCOTCH ON THE ROCKS for the silver award in Contemporary Fiction. I loved writing this novel and I know, from the number of downloads and reviews, that readers loved it too. Hope to have a new book in the spring for #RBRT to cast their eyes over. Watch this space.

Congratulations all, and I really need to get to work on my TBR pile. The only one I’ve read is Deborah Jay’s The Prince’s Man, which I loved. I can see why it won! To everyone else, hope the new year brings a bit more reading time for me, so I can get to yours, too. Well done!
