I've being interviewed over on the lovely Maria's blog today, if you fancy a peek.
In the meantime I'm still recovering from a dramatic over-consumption of mince pies, chocolates and Christmas cake, and trying to work off the calories by writing like mad to finish novel 3 - only a chapter or so to go.
Then I'm determined to write and submit a story each week, which I did for most of last year and thoroughly enjoyed.
Hope you've all had a peaceful start to the New Year, and are mostly filled with resolve rather than pastry.

I read the 'comment' on the other blog and it looks like someone just showing their own ignorance to me.
(Oh dear. That wasn't very nice, so maybe I shouldnt have said it. Never mind!)
As for the pastry vs resolve argument, I should make no comment on the grounds I may incriminate myself. However, the resolve is trying hard to poke its head above the pastry parapet and I did write a very short flash today, so maybe there is hope!
It's a lovely interview, Karen.
And I agree with what Bernadette said :-)
We still have some mince pies left and it is my duty to eat them to clear some space ;-) x
We still have a cupboard and fridge full of Christmas rubbish (but yummy rubbish) to work through. Going into the kitchen is a dangerous activity.
There's still half a tin of Quality Street sitting on the coffee table if anyone fancies one. As regards the "comment" I haven't read it yet but I'm sure Bernadette is right.
I'm going to have to go over and see what they've said now, aren't I?
I agree with Bernadette.
Karen, I thoroughly enjoyed having you on my blog today and I'm so sorry you had to go through this. But don't dwell on the negatives - lots of commenters said lovely things about the book. That's the thing to think about....
Agree with Bernadette. And I thought your reply was perfect.
Loved the interview.
xx
It was interesting to read that interview, thank you!
What I find a bit distracting was the frequent change of font style (sometimes even size), and I am not sure that was always deliberate?
As for the comment made by the anonymous person, it did not strike me as rude, just a question, which you answered very politely and correctly.
Mmm - I could go a bit of that chocolate cake right now, even though I had resolved to get back to good eating habits! Will go and have a look at your interview.
Happy New Year, Karen! A story a week - I'm impressed - you go girl! x
Thanks everyone for your support, and I'm glad I'm not the only one weighed down by sugary temptation!
There was a ruder comment underneath, Librarian, but Maria kindly removed it. I'm not sure what happened with the font style - that was out of my hands - but I'm sorry it was tricky to read :o)
I have to admit I'm mostly filled with pastry, but Ma leaves for South Africa today so hopefully I won't have any further excuses to sit around and feed myself.
Happy writing.
Happy New Year Karen, good luck with the book.
Thank you Debs and Susan :o) I think I've just about reined in the eating now!
