So, life hasn't let me get on quite as quickly as I'd like on the #editing #PearlsontheRoad and I'm not quite ready for beta readers yet. I will repeat this call again when it's ready, and I swear it won't be long now, but if anyone is interested in beta reading this let me know!
Also, I am about to start recording a spoken version for a friend who prefers #audiobook versions. If you might be interested in this, also let me know!

So, I am within spitting distance of finishing my current #edit on #PearlsOntheRoad , which means I will shortly be looking for #betaReaders to help me give it the consistency and polish it's going to need when I start #querying with it.
So, if you have been following last month's #writingWonders , or you are happy reading #scots (or even better, happy to give the #scots language a once over for consistency) then give me a wee #DM and I will be in touch with links when it's ready!

I have had an idea for a new #wip and it's infecting me. I have to resist the lure and get #editing #PearlsontheRoad finished, but it's such a tempting idea.
As I scribbled down the idea in my notebook today it's set in a world of Smugglers, evil colonial types, co-operating nobles, travellers, rebels, revolting peasants, stern religious men, polymath homespun scientists, alchemists and angry, violent women who rum amok in mobs.

Came across this while #editing today, and it gave us a wee giggle.
