What happened in June and July?

Life happened in June and July and I haven't been blogging for a while as life burst open with new opportunities and challenges. Great, I hear you say that just means it is going to take you even longer to finish your book. But the strangest thing is when I find myself facing changes in my life, the characters in my book become the cement in the madness and the familiar when everything around me is changing. I shouldn't admit hearing voices but when they are the voices of my characters that's a good thing, isn't it? In fact, I believe it to be a good thing so I don't care what others think.

I am definitely on the cusp of my dreams at the moment, and it is brilliant, exciting but also scary as there are some demons that I have had to talk to and square up too. Sometimes, we hold onto beliefs that were never true in the first place, but we foolishly let them circle around us for too longer. Never let people tell you that you are too old to dream, because dreams are important to everyone and some we will see be fulfilled and some will always stay out of reach but whatever their conclusion, they make us who we are. i have been writing since the age of 8 and I still don't know whether I will see my name on a front cover of a paperback, but that will not stop me writing, it will not stop me from enjoying the sheer pleasure of reading.

There have also been some very humbling moments as well as some very sad ones with the passing of people, I wish I had known better and had spent more time with, but know I was lucky to know them in the first place. I have friends flying to Australia and giving birth to beautiful baby girls so it has been a really circle of life over the last couple of months.

We've (boyfriend and I) have increased our Apple family with Ipad and Iphone joining the family. Unfortunately, I found angry birds and we have played it so much that we have completed all 15 levels. Okay so the writing had some competition but I do feel it is back on track (nearly)!!!
