Just Say Yes

April 20, 2007

I’m delighted to announce… I’m writing a new book. Now this may not be earth-shattering in the grand scheme of things but I’m very excited. I’ve done about 9,000 words and hope to have more news about it soon.
The new novel is called Just Say Yes and the premise was inspired by a link to a video clip sent to me some months ago by a friend, who is the owner of the cool www.richardarmitageonline.com. The moment I clicked on the link, I had a light-bulb moment, started thinking ‘Yes, but what if X had happened…‘ and I’ve been developing the story ever since.

Tomorrow, I’m off to meet Allison and Nell for lunch and a gossip. Nell has been nominated for the RNA Romance Prize and needs cake. Really looking forward to it, guys.

Celebratory and totally gratuitous picture below. In honour of ‘A’, it’s of John Thornton and Margaret Hale indulging in some serious snogging in North & South.

PS Good Luck to Flairyflairy who is running the London Marathon on Sunday! Hope you fly round, S. x

   Hhhhhmmmmm this new book idea sounds exciting – can’t wait to read it. It’s fabby when you’re up and off like a whippet with the writing (not that it happens to me much lately). Love the snog pic btw(wistful sigh). jx

   I wouldn’t say was off like a whippet, Jude, but it was an idea that really grabbed me.:)

   Flairy – congrats on the Marathon.

   Michelle & Rosy …yes, things are going well this week. Hope to have more detail soon.
