The journey that started as a serialised daily story, has come full-circle. The second book in my Ash series, Ash and the Faceless Man, the story of a small girl with a big attitude, has won The People's Book Prize Frederick Forsyth award for Fiction 2026
At the moment, I'm writing press releases, interview replies and all manner of things to do with the competition. I'm not sure if there's an award ceremony this year (that process stopped because of Covid) and if there is, it should be televised - so there's that to think about, too. I've not been writing as much as I used to. The 'muscle' seems to have lapsed through lack of use, but I do have plans... many plans. Not least of those plans is the third and final story in Ash's collection (title to be thought up... soon, I hope).
It's a bit of a whirlwind at the moment and I'm grateful that it started - and that it started here, on Hive.blog.
