No Time to Procratinate...

I've had one of those busy weeks, so my normal routine has been grabbing a break; but it will be back to the novella on Monday...

Saturday I'm leaving my OH and the family at home while I do a one day workshop being run by the writers' club- Writing for Children - is it kids stuff?  With author Ann Evans.

Although writing for children is not my preference I know I will still find many aspects useful.

In my novella, my heroine Sarah is starting to have nightmares and dreams, which are actually memories - except they are memories of when she was ten years old.

So I'm hoping I will learn something to help me recreate the younger Sarah.

I'll tell you about the workshop next week...

Enjoy the weekend.

Crime Time - Win a Trip to Harrogate Crime Festival

Constable&Robinson, publishers, have a website (C&R Crime) dedicated to crime fiction whether it's cosy or mainstream...

Have a look here.

They are also holding a competition for you to win a weekend in Harrogate- home of the Crime Festival.

You have the chance to win 3 nights bed and breakfast accommodation for two, only five minutes walk from the festival venue.

The winner also gets two Rover tickets to the festival for all events, except the dinner event on the Saturday evening.

There's a goody bag- books.

And you really need to read the details of what's included, follow this link.

Of course you'll need to pay to get there if you win, but I know it's often accommodation costs on top of travel costs that make attending big events impossible.

If you enter, fingers crossed and good luck. :-)
