I hope you have had a great month. The
weather here in England has been pretty dismal, rain, rain and more rain. We
have had about two days of sunshine here in the South of England, but then it
started raining again, but we still bravely march on in our summer clothes.
Ever hopeful of some sunshine!
July has been a crazy month for me. I
have been very busy with rewrites for The Du Lac Devil. This is one of my
favourite parts of the writing journey. The story is down, and now it needs
that final polish before it heads off to the editors. I printed out the
manuscript in whole yesterday, and I stood back for a moment and sighed, I am
not sure whether it was with satisfaction or relief!!
The designer for the cover of The Du
Lac Devil has my synopsis, and I can not wait to see how he has interpreted my
story for the cover. If you are an author, and you are looking for a designer
to design your book cover then I Highly Recommend Peter from Bespoke Book
Covers; he is wonderful to work with and goes out of his way to be helpful.
I also have exciting news about my
blog, Myths, Legends, Books and Coffee Pots. The blog has had its 100,000-page
visit. I am so humbled by how many people take time out of their day to come
over and check out my little blog. Thank you.
I will keep you posted on progress with
The Du Lac Devil. Merton du Lac has certainly kept me on my toes while I wrote
this story - I wanted him to do one thing, but he had other plans! It seems I
have lost control over my protagonist. I can’t say I am surprised; Merton was
always one for breaking the rules!
Speak soon.
Lots of love
Mary xx
