Nearly done...

Okay so I was out by an hour and a half!
Still nowhere near finished but the house looks lovely!
All the washing has been done, most of the ironing. Screaming matches have all been successfully managed and we're all still talking to each other!

This is the plan....

Right, it's 7.30am and I'm making my plan for the day. Dishwasher on - check. Ironing pile at the ready - check. Kids both still snoring in their beds (well of course - they are teenagers!) check.
I'm going to clean the house, strip the beds, pack the clothes for our holly-wollys and if my calculations are correct (who am I kidding - I never was any good at maths) I'll be done for 2pm and then I can settle down and write some more!
Here's hoping....

My headache has gone...

Very pleased to report that my headache has now passed - may well have that bottle of wine tonight then ;)
Also very pleased to report that I have now (or at least I think I have) got my facebook page up and running too!
I am going to spend some time tomorrow writing, but I have got to pack as we're off on our hols!! Sun sea and sand hopefully - or at the very least sea and sand - I haven't checked the weather report...

:( I've got a headache!

I'm not happy. I've got a killer of a headache and it's just not budging this afternoon!
I'm going to persuade my lovely husband to come for a nice long walk around the nature reserve to get rid of it.
Since I've not been feeling it since I got in from work, I think I'll give my writing a miss this evening and just kick back and relax.
Might even buy a bottle of wine....although that ain't gonna help the head is it?
Looks like it's an orange squash and a hot date with Jamie Oliver at 9 o'clock - good times :)

Midnight Moon and The Wolf Moon

I have now finished writing Midnight Moon and it's going through the lengthy and boring process of being edited. I've made a flying start on The Wolf Moon and I'm really excited about it too!
I've put the first three chapters of Midnight Moon on my website over at www.heathermar-gerrison.co.uk on the extras page, so you can have a browse.
I'll do the same with The Wolf Moon once I get far enough with the story that I won't have gone right back to the beginning and changed everything! (Something I must admit I do a lot of!)
Anyway. It's off to the day job this morning (booooo) so I'll sign off and see you guys later!

Amethyst's Dating Game

I'm sat in the conservatory with Muse playing on the ipod. The wind is getting up a little outside and I'm fairly sure we'll get a drop or two of rain any second....now!
I'm writing a little bit of Amethyst today. I haven't visiting my old friends from Seltham for a while, having been concentrating on the good folks in my Midnight Moon saga. That one is almost finished now and I've made a start on The Wolf Moon which is the second one in the series (I hadn't planned on a serialised story but then I kind of fell in love with the characters and just had to carry on!)

So Amethyst has made a bit of a pact with Selina to get each other a date with their respective crushes. Selina's is proving somewhat difficult being in the "Friend Zone" (The worst place to be - obviously)
Selina got Amethyst her date with no worries at all except for the fact that he was already going out with someone else...oh dear. The course of true love never did run smooth I guess....
The rest of the cast are still around for a while, although we'll be saying goodbye to a couple of them at the end of the book and then I'll have to start bringing in more new ones....It's a tough job but someones gotta do it!

Stan, Remember Me...

At last!! Stan, Remember Me is now available for download from Smashwords.com at $2.99.
I have also reduced Stan from $5.99 to $2.99.
I am working on the last one at the present time and hope to have this finished by November 2011.
Hope you enjoy it as much as do writing them!
