Happy New Year!

2013 is kicking off here in my part of the UK with a very grey sky and a hint of sun, so the weather isn't great, but I'm still looking forward to the year ahead and hopefully blue skies in more ways than one!

I'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has read my books this year, helped me write them, taken time out to write reviews and generally supported me in all kind of ways - from making coffee, listening to moans or just making me laugh!

I'd also like to wish my many new and old friends all the best for the year ahead - I've met some wonderful, generous people (the writing community is very generous, and is a support group, mentoring group, promo group, brow wiping group and so many other things all rolled into one!) and swapped messages with so many people that I now call friends and hope one day to meet.


I've posted on my other blog about my writing escapades of 2012, and my expectations for 2013, so I won't repeat myself here and bore people to death!!

My 2012 has been a mixed bag that ended on an upbeat note, and I know many of my friends have had a mixed year. But, I hope that everyone has a great 2013 and your dreams come true, whether they involve writing a book, keeping healthy or just occasionally being able to have a laugh at life. Happy New Year! (And I haven't got a hangover, yippee!!)
