A Place to Write
My Garden in Winter
Many writers have a place to write. Somewhere they feel comfortable. I look out of the bi-fold doors in front of me, and I feel inspired.
The Autumn colours have changed for Winter. We haven't had any snow yet, although some snow is promised, but the hard frosts have turned the scene white.
There is not much change to the green hedges, but there are blossoming roses, which appear to defy the winter conditions.
The view changes all the time, and so do my writing thoughts. I love every season, and the changes will be reflected on this page as the year progresses. I find it easy to write with this view in front of me. The words come and are translated by my fingers, which don’t always behave.
Sometimes the words that come onto the page are not the words I first thought of, but that is the fun of writing. A story evolves. It is an expression and, just like the birds flitting around my garden, somehow, their actions make sense.
Loose Ends
"Loose Ends" by David Liston is a gripping financial thriller set in 2008, as markets teeter on the edge of collapse.
The story follows Brian Jenkins, a newly appointed investment strategist at a London hedge fund, who uncovers evidence of money laundering and a murder linked to an international drug cartel.
As Jenkins seeks answers with the help of a CIA agent and his friend Kylie, he navigates twists, deception, and danger, discovering not everyone is who they seem.
