Just returned from a restful holiday in the sun, I am full of plans and ideas for my next novel. The working title is “The Search” and, having evolved themes and characters and a story-line, I have begun writing. Creating a book takes time (my first novel took two years) and this book may be an ‘epic’ so I knows I’m in for a ‘long haul’, but I’m enthusiastic about the new project and always enjoy the process of telling a story, putting words on the page, and building a book.
