HELP FOR HEROES COLOSSAL CAKE SALE 2013

Now, like Marjory Dawes (Little Britain) likes to say, we all like a bit of cake, I know I do (unfortunately due to sugar 'issues' I can't indulge myself any more) but for those of you who like your sweet treats, why not combine your pleasure with raising funds to help our wounded servicemen and women and let your sweet tooth make a difference.

Help for Heroes are running THE COLOSSAL CAKE SALE, between April 20th and May 5th 2013 in your local town, city, club or workplace.

So whether you prefer to bake or eat (or have your cake AND eat it), why not get involved. Don your apron, grab your wooden spoon and bake up a storm to support our wounded Heroes. 

Full details of how to take part can be found at the HELP FOR HEROES website here.

And we have a WINNER!

And we have a WINNER!

In 21 days, 54,054 words have been set down, the bare bones of a new novel OFFSHORE - a contemporary horror drama - my first foray into this particular genre.

There's a long way to go yet, until the finished article is ready and to bring it to sparkling perfection, I am hoping to encourage a dear friend to act as co author and help me, with knowledge and expertise, put some flesh on the bones.

How long will it take, who knows. How long is a piece of string. It is done when it is done but a reasonable time frame should be around 6 - 10 months hence.

It has been an experience to say the least, but come NaNoWriMo 2013, I'll be signing up to do it all over again.

This weekend - 29 Sept - 1 Oct - brand new paranormal romance ANIMA MEA by Lucy Pepperdine will be FREE from Amazon Kindlestores.

Maxine won't let a little inconvenience like death keep her from her loved ones.

A quick rebrand - the name may have changed, but the content is the same

BLUE QUILL BOOKS

Hello dear friends,

Long time, no see. My fault I'm afraid. Those darned books just keep on demanding to be written.

You may have noticed a slight - OK major - change to the blog. Writers-Unlimited is no more, as from September 5 2012 BLUE QUILL BOOKS is in the driving seat. The name may have changed, but the content will remain the same and I hope you will remain a loyal follower although I don't update very often, usually because either a) I have nothing useful to say, or b) someone else got there first. Posts may be sporadic, but when there is something of interest I will be sure to let you know via all the usual channels - Facebook, Twitter, Google + etc.

Bear with me while I adjust the layout and appearance, it shouldn't take long. In the meantime, may I introduce you to the BLUE QUILL BOOKS website, where you will find information on all the books by moi, Jillian Ward, and my alter ego Lucy Pepperdine, all under one roof.

Thank you so much for your following and support over the last year or so, and for your patience with my sometimes longwinded and often incoherent ramblings. With a nice new logo should come a bright new outlook.

Just to pique your interest, might I introduce you to the latest book in the BLUE QUILL stable...



ANIMA MEA
My life, my soul - in this life and the next

A paranormal romance.

Snatched out of life by a tragic accident, Maxine wakes to find herself in a bureacracy driven afterlife.

Once she gets over her initial shock, she doesn't let a litte inconvenience like death get in her way and soon settles into her new home in the township she comes to know as Evermore, making friends and training for a new job.

When an unexpected talent makes itself known, she loses no time using and abusing it to watch over and take care of her family left behind, especially her beloved husband, Robert, now forced to muddle on through life without her.
 
Find ANIMA MEA at Smashwords.com and at Amazon Kindlestores.

Take care and keep writing,
