Deadlines Rule

Posted on February 18, 2017 by lindsaylittleson • Leave a comment

The puppy’s name is Bessie and she’s one of my many excuses, even though she’s not even mine and only comes to visit occasionally. It shames me to admit, but so far this year I’ve written only a few thousand words. I’m full of ideas, but struggling to get into an evening writing routine. I’ve … Continue reading →

Goodbyes and hellos.

Posted on February 13, 2017 by Francesca Armour-Chelu • 4 Comments

This post should have some kind of health warning as there are some ridiculously adorable photos of a puppy in it that could melt your heart. We’re just over a month into the New Year, and I’m a week into owning new puppy!  Meet Didi! Here she is on her first day at home. Didi … Continue reading →

The Mountain Hare by Lynda Waterhouse

  This mountain hare was painted by my friend Jenny Fell. She used it on the cover of her Christmas card this year. It was lovely to open the card and come face to face with this beautiful creature racing through the snow. Mountain hares live in upland areas in Scotland and the Peak District … Continue reading →

My house is looking as twinkly and festive as a cat owner’s house can look. Tinsel and lights are trailing from the Christmas tree and it’s looking decidedly bedraggled since Roo decided it was an excellent vantage point from which to spy on the birds in the garden. She’s completely deaf, so bells and other … Continue reading →

Cheer up! by Jo Franklin

A rather short post from me today because I am recovering from an operation and am supposed to be in bed. I am being looked after by Doctor Louie. I’m a very impatient patient. Although I am having to rest all the time, my brain is crystal clear so I am already bored. I haven’t … Continue reading →

Oops – and Watership Down – by Emma Barnes

Posted on November 13, 2016 by Emma Barnes • Leave a comment

Earlier today I was in the middle of some cooking, and I happened to switch on the radio.  It was some kind of drama.  After a few moments, I recognised it as a dramatisation of Watership Down – one of the best adventure stories I have ever read.  And certainly the best ever featuring rabbits! … Continue reading →

Really Really Sorry…

Posted on September 14, 2016 by frosthollowhall • 10 Comments

So today is my day to blog on Girls Heart Books- the 14th of every month, a date by now as engrained in my mind as my own birthday. Which makes it even more embarrassing that I FORGOT. I could blame editing deadlines- yup, I’m currently on two of those. I might mention spending the … Continue reading →
