Now, I hear you ask - where does the spring procrastination come in?
Well, I don't have to tell you what spring means, do I? daffodils and bluebells,
little lambs in the fields, and there's that strange bright light in the sky - the sun is out.
My horses are pleased to have their rugs off at last, needing lots of brushing to get all that winter hair off and of course I want to spend as much time with them as I can -
and meanwhile my little dog is raring to go on longer 'walkies'...
...and I have a whole lot of new seedlings that need planting if we're to have any flowers in the garden this summer!
All this means I am very behind in writing my next novel - hence the

I'm also 'full of the joys' of spring because the third book in the 'Destiny' Trilogy' is nominated for the RONE Awards in the SF/Fantasy category. I've already mentioned this in a previous post but in case you haven't come across this book before, although it's the third book in the series, each book is intended to be read as a 'stand alone', although of course I hope if you read one, you'll enjoy meeting up with some of the characters in the other two. Here's the blurb:
Blurb:
Cat Kincaid is obsessed with killing
the man she believes is responsible for the torture and death of her sister,
but when she eventually catches up with him, survival becomes a greater
priority than revenge.
Kerry Marchant, haunted by memories,
regret and self-blame, shields himself from the pain of the past by committing
himself totally to the starship, Destiny, of which he is part owner. However,
the beautiful, red haired woman who reminds him of his lost love, and who he
suspects is working for a corrupt regime, represents a possible threat not only
to the ship, but to his heart.
Marooned on an inhospitable planet,
they need to work together to stay alive, fighting not only unknown assailants,
but their growing attraction. But how can they learn to trust each other when
he has vowed never to get close to a woman again, and she made a solemn pledge
to destroy him?
