Simply beautiful

As I’m writing a story of love at first sight, I sometimes like to peruse the web for real stories of it.  Sometimes they inspire, sometimes they just warm the heart, others just affirm that I’m on the right track.  I found one that just … this one I felt I ought to share, so here it is.

Getting started

What can I say?  I’m trying to set this up as a blog about the progress of my fiction, but it’s a little slow going.

Current projects:

Now & Forever a four book series following the lives and love at first sight romance of a pair of high school girls.  (more detailed blurb when this gets an official page, probably)

This blog – I need to work out how I mean to organise it and start putting content here.  Mostly involves really wanting to use a computer (not really my cuppa, the electronic little demonic things)
