If youāve been following a while, youāll know that I love to read, so the main focus of my website has always been to share book reviews and book club questions. Nothing is about to change there ā books are, after all, what keep me sane (ish!) My online shop showcases some of my own most popular picture books that are for sale.
I occasionally,when the mood takes me, blog on life, family, relationships and even occasionally health and fitness. I’m not a fan of social media posts that suggest the writerās life is perfect. I just donāt buy it. But if you enjoy a smile, chat and a cup of coffee with a pal, I think my posts might be for you.
