News of other projects

Last night the final chapter plan was completed for the sequel to Rachel's Shoe! The follow-up novel promises more from the unique location of the Islands and I hope you will feel the sand between your toes and a glow in your heart as you read it. I don't wish to give too much away but will post occasionally on the progress here. It may be quite a while in coming though so I hope you will be patient with me!

In the meantime news of another project I've been involved in since last year. Whilst taking my main summer holidays, I decided to issue an invitation to writers around the world to take part in a collaborative novel project. Dozens of applications came in from people with a range of experience from novice to well published authors and literary professionals. A group of complete strangers of all ages with life experience from across our planet as far afield as Alaska to Australia, from Europe to the Far East and across the USA came forward to join in.

From over 50 applicants, a team of 20 was selected and the serious writing began in January this year after a few months of planning and preparation in 2008. We have just one year to complete our Novel!

The project is unique and the progress to date has been remarkable. There is little doubt the project process itself would make a fascinating read!

The press releases for Rachel's Shoe are due out in the coming weeks, I'll be adding them to the website when they are published.

That's all for now
