I lost my father five years ago too, and he would have been so happy to know I've finally sold a story.<br />I'm chocsessed. My blog is called love and chocolate and today I got my first ever cover, with chocolates on the front! Have a look...<br /><br />www.sallyclements.blogspot.comSally Clementshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00126442284080778860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-44331896765605300842010-06-11T10:50:47.946+01:002010-06-11T10:50:47.946+01:00Sue - thank you!

You're ahead of the game because you've learned that to get it right you have to get it written. As Lesley says I faffed around for too long trying to get a perfect first draft and getting discouraged. Once I'd given myself permission just to write the story down and then work on it... well! Good luck! Cx<br /><br /><br />Kate, thank you very much for the hugs and your kind comments about Turning the Tide. Best wishes to you and yours too. Cx<br /><br />Lesley, faffing round sums it up! I'm sorry if my post has stirred up sad memories for you. Congratulations on hanging on in there and achieving so much after being left with such a hole in your life. Thank you, too, for your kind words about Turning the Tide.

And I'd faffed around just like Chris, writing everything else under the sun before being pushed into it a year after my husband's death.<br /><br />I'm so looking forward to your book, Chris.<br /><br />Lesley xLesley Cookmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699182779296799170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-69188146673860235462010-06-10T09:51:59.009+01:002010-06-10T09:51:59.009+01:00Congratulations, Christine - and sending you a hug...Congratulations, Christine - and sending you a hug as your post really struck a chord with me. <br /><br />Gorgeous cover and I love the premise - so am wishing you every success for the uture.Kate Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367918727779245526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-43187250712849556452010-06-10T09:11:17.596+01:002010-06-10T09:11:17.596+01:00Very poignant post, I am working hard on my novel ...Very poignant post, I am working hard on my novel now because I want my parents to see it, to hold it in their hands. They have at least read the first draft and now I am working on the edits. I want them to see that I finally made it. NaNoWriMo finally helped me get my novel written and now I am trying to get it finished. I wish you well with the promotion and sales of your novel. Sending a hug and TLC, Ardee-annAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
