About
Hello, welcome and thank you for visiting my site.
I’d be happy if you’d stay a while, browse a little, read a blog or two. Though as I’ve just commenced the whole blogging thing there aren’t that many to choose from!
. Sit down, relax and enjoy.
I first put pen to paper with the intention of writing a fantasy story way back in 1987. And I do mean pen to paper, back then I could find the ‘zone’ more easily by creating the words with my hand as well as my head. I began the exercise as a hobby and over the next 20 years managed to create a one hundred and fifty thousand word fantasy. Quite some time to write a book, I know, but not finishing never entered my head. How to finish certainly proved something of a challenge.
In 2009 a friend suggested I join the wonderful RWAus (Romance Writers of Australia) group and in 2010 I attended my first conference. The support and inspiration received from the members of this great organisation help me recognise that writing is not only the journey, but the destination as well.
I have entered a romantic sci-fi adventure into The Sheila and The Maggies and look forward to the feedback from those competitions. Next cab off the rank is the first in a series of books that will mix the genres of science fiction, paranormal and, of course, romance.
Being someone who needs to be organised, I have bought my ticket and booked accommodation for this year’s RWAus conference and am looking forward to the first session presented by Helene Young: Relentless Conflict. I mean, who doesn’t like torturing their characters?
Thanks again for dropping by,
Sandy
