Slightly Nervous Hello

Hi All

I've been meaning to pop over and introduce myself for a while now, but other things kept getting in the way.

I already feel like I know some of you really well. I've been lurking on this blog for ages and through it I've got to know a fair few of you via your own blogs. I'm really looking forward to getting to know the rest of you.

I was thrilled when Liz emailed me to say there was a place available for me in the group. I'd expected to be on the waiting list for much longer. It is lovely to finally be a bona fide member.

I've been writing for about four years now, and I've had a few short stories, articles and autobiographical stories published in places like My Weekly, Woman's Weekly, This England and Writers' Forum.

I also write book reviews and co-edit Bookersatz with the very lovely Cathy. My own blog is here.

A while ago I finished the first draft of my first novel. I'm now trying to get to grips with the rewriting and editing process. I want to get this novel done and dusted and out there so I can start the sequel. I'm dying to know what happens to my two main characters next even if no one else is!

See you all tomorrow for Coffee Morning.

Helen is far too modest, she runs Bookersatz now. Not only that she is a great writer and a lovely person.

Welcome honey.
