Posted September 2, 2016 by Charlotte in Blog Tour, Guest Post / 0 Comments

Today I am delighted to be part of the Blog Tour for Late Summer in the Vineyard by Jo Thomas. I loved reading Late Summer in the Vineyard (see my review) and it has me longing for tasting wine and finding the sun! Don’t forget to visit other blog stops along the tour for other great content. Below Jo shares her top 5 places to enjoy wine! Top 5 Places to Enjoy Your Wine: My favourite glass of wine is in the sun, at Monique’s bar where I stay at a writer’s retreat in France. She serves it in a chilled glass from the freezer. And if I’m drinking rose wine at Monique’s it means I’ve finished my word count for the day. West Wales. I love to sit and look at the sea with a glass of rose in my hand, smelling the sea air and listening to the sound of the waves, the call of the seagulls and the clanking of the sails on the boats moored there. In front of a roaring log fire. Just like when I went oyster farming with […]

Today I am delighted to be part of the Blog Tour for In Too Deep with a Guest Post entitled All in the Mind by Samantha Hayes. This is a book that I am currently reading, I’m right in the middle and I’m not sure where this is going to go. But no spoilers, so far it is pretty amazing! Below All in the Mind by Samantha Hayes where Samantha shares some of the things that led her down the path to become an author. Read below – All in the Mind by Samantha Hayes: You’ve done a number of different jobs in the past. Did any of these lead to your decision to become a writer? When I was younger, I kind of drifted around not having a clue what I was going to do with my life. I left school aged 16, which until recently I’ve always regretted. I went through a relationship breakup (which looking back now seems silly, but felt immense then) but I also suffered another very traumatic event around that time. It’s no wonder that studying dropped off […]

Guest Post: ‘From fashion to crime: writing both ends of the spectrum’ by Corrie Jackson, author of Breaking Dead

Posted April 25, 2016 by Charlotte in Blog Tour, Guest Post / 0 Comments

Today I am delighted to be part of the Blog Tour for Breaking Dead by Corrie Jackson with guest post From fashion to crime: writing both ends of the spectrum. I loved this book (check out my review), it was so much better to what I was expecting and I was hooked. And I cannot wait to see what happens next. Below Corrie talks about how she moved from fashion to crime and its a fascinating piece. And don’t forget to check out other blog stops for more exclusive gossip 🙂 From fashion to crime: writing both ends of the spectrum: Over a decade on women’s magazines has given me a front-row view of the fashion industry in all its Technicolor glory. I’ve interviewed Kate Moss while Alexander McQueen pinned clothes onto her post-baby body. I’ve watched seamstresses craft couture dresses that cost more than my car. I’ve spent 24 hours in Milan with an Italian style icon who owns two apartments: one for her…and one for her wardrobe. Fashion really is the stuff of dreams. But, like any billion-dollar industry, skeletons lurk […]

Don’t forget to visit other blog stops along the tour for other great content. Below Tasmina shares her favourite films set in France and let me tell you they are good ones 😉 Tasmina Perry’s Favourite Movies Set in France I love setting parts of my books in France. It’s such a romantic and beautiful country that I keep gravitating to writing scenes there. I try and go as often as I can but I find the next best thing is indulging in a book or a movie set in France. Here are some of my favourite French-set films….. French Kiss It’s a bit silly this one but I absolutely love it. Jilted Meg Ryan chases her fiancé to France only to get mixed up with […]
