The lovely people at Poolbeg have even furnished me with a cover which is divine and actually you would have thought they had read my minds because it suits the book perfectly. it is probably best to categorise things, isn't it?īook Six, or 'What Becomes of the Broken Hearted?' is done - bar the copy edits and will be in the shops (all being well, no floods/ famines/ world wars etc) at the end of August. and this probably won't be any better because they've changed blogger in my absence and now the screen looks all funny and I'm not sure what I'm doing. keep watching (but maybe not that often!) for more news. The book is pencilled for an October 2013 release.
I have been exceptionally lucky that a number of GI brides have told me their story - but in doing so I want to make sure I retell it correctly. Of course it has a contemporary element - but the writing of such a book requires a lot of research, a lot of making sure it is just right and a lot of panicking on my part. has a working title of "THE FIRST TIME I SAID GOODBYE"ĭear reader, this marks a slight shift in direction for me as carrying on from the nostalgia feel of If Only You Knew this book delves into the life of a woman who fell in love with a GI stationed in Derry just after World War Two. No sooner was it out though that all focus has shifted to book seven which. Well, in book news, What Becomes was launched on the world and has got some pretty amazing reviews and reader feedback. But all that said I'm aware my over busy-ness isn't really something to complain about. While both children need me to do less things for them physically they need me in a whole pile of different ways which makes the combination of full time work, full time mammyhood and a book a year contract interesting to say the least. He is doing incredibly well in school and I am incredibly proud of him.īut, see those people who said the teeny years were the toughest? They fibbed. He veers between being Mr Sensible "Mammy you are SO not cool" to being a sensitive child who needs reassurance. Her brother - now a football obsessed, XBox loving pre-teen (even tho he is only 8) has grown Harry styles type hair. She (along with her brother) is the love of my life. She can frequently be seen sitting at the computer telling me she is writing a book. The girl - that tiny baby I posted about all those times - has started pre-school. The milestones of the last few months are simple. Hopefully anyone who wants to see me waffle on a more regular basis can follow me on Twitter or on my Facebook author page. What can I say but life is just so break neck busy at the moment that this blog is very, very sadly neglected. Once again, as is tradition with these things, I apologise for the silence. Hopefully What Becomes of the Broken Hearted? has garnered me a few new fans. Hello everyone and thank you for reading, especially those of you who are new to me or my books.
