Hi! Nice to meet you, and looking forward to hearing more about you, via your new blog.
Just come over to say hello and I like the look of your new website. Beautiful seascape picture at the top – did you take it?
Yes, Bridget, just snapped it with my phone-camera the other day, thinking I’d like a sea-scape at the top of the blog. At the time I thought I must come down to the beach with a proper camera, but actually I rather like this photo anyway!
Hi Kath
This looks really interesting and I love the photo. Will love hearing how you are doing even more x

E .can i get a copy of daughters of red hill paper back pleased
Hi Bernie, I am afraid it is only available as an ebook at the moment. I will announce on my blog if my publisher decides to bring it out as a paperback.
Thank you Kathleen gosh it would be great if I could get a paperback as I don’t like e books and prefer to hold a book
Bernie I would LOVE it if my publisher decided to put my books out as paperbacks – but it is up to them, and it all depends on whether the books sell well enough as ebooks to warrant going into paperback.
You are a fabulous writer & all great reads. Thanks.
Thank you Alice!
