Horror and paranormal is not something I read or watch. I get spooked easily and have a very active imagination. As I teenager I would constantly be plagued by nightmares. As I grew up I knew to stay away from anything scary. These two subjects are very big in the book world and there are… Continue reading I don’t like creepy things, do you?

Everybody remembers their first dog. Mine was Ricky, he was a terrier of some sorts and he was very intelligent. This is Ricky, I don’t have many photos of him and here he is with my dad and my baby sister. He was about two when this was taken.

Do you keep a diary?
I’ve always kept a diary and in my early teenage years I wrote a few lines on days I did something. When I had my first boyfriend the diaries became more detailed on the days we did something exciting. I also managed to graffiti all over it with hearts and our names, basically declaring my… Continue reading Do you keep a diary?

To me, she seemed very real and luckily my readers agree as I had some lovely reviews. In this book,… Continue reading A Terrible Mother
Stories Based on a Song
A while ago I read a book called Riddle by Elizabeth Horton Newton. I really enjoyed it and reviewed it on my blog. I found out later it was based on the Richard Marx's song Hazard. This was really cool because my own book Down by River was also based on the ninties song. Both… Continue reading Stories Based on a Song
Missing People
Like many others, I enjoy a good mystery. Stories where you need to know what happens next. Tales that pique your curiosity and keep you turning the page to get to the end. Over the years, I’ve found missing people intriguing. Why did they disappear in the first place? Was it an accident or something… Continue reading Missing People
My Week in Pictures
by Karen J Mossman Today is chill out Sunday. A day to sit back and relax, which is what I did. This made me think of the all the things I'd achieved last week. Besides writing, I love crafts and the top row of the picture shows containers made from painted recycled baked beans tins.… Continue reading My Week in Pictures
Abortion Protests
I was listening to the radio this morning and they were talking about exclusion zones outside abortion clinics. It was appalling to hear how women entering them were being harassed. It must be a difficult decision to have an abortion in the first place. There would be a lot of soul searching beforehand. There are… Continue reading Abortion Protests
