Aunt Enid Update

12-13 hours writing a day for two weeks and crashing iron levels. I’m exhausted. One. More. Long. Chapter. To. Go.

Then it’s a final rewrite and resolving any persisting sticky notes… and to the beta readers!

I’m cutting it fine but I’ve almost made up for two months of respiratory issues this year.

I’ve bought a ‘new’ tea cup from the opshop to help me push through.

Aunt Enid is coming... Just running a bit late...

Aunt Enid should be finished later this month. I’ve had to reschedule the official launch to 21st May. (to be confirmed)

I’m still battling the respiratory issues from the burn offs when I was in Melbourne. Regular readers will know I get bronchitis from dust, pollution/smog and smoke. At least this year I’ve only had two bouts (over a month) rather than the three-month-long battle of last year. (I currently rattle when I move.)

The doctor said to ‘drink more green tea’ to help. So I am:



Until then, you can find out more about me and Aunt Enid over the next few weeks, by following the pre-book launch events.

    I will email you around the 14th with an update (due to the schedule change) and then as soon as the book is finished and back from the printers. Apologies for the unexpected date changes.
