Hello fellow readers and lovers of books!

Suffice to say, writing a book has been 'number one' on my to-do list for ages, but it's also the thing that scares me the most. I've always wanted to be an author but the pressure of sitting down to write with the intention of writing something brilliant can be a crushing and incredibly halting mountain to face. I've decided to write this book – or try to – in an effort to give my writing muscle a good work out. I want to stop being afraid and find the joy in just writing to share a story.

I also have a habit or re-reading my writing and then being scared by the prospect of how much editing I feel it needs to undergo (meaning I will literally contemplate a word for 10 minutes in order to open up all its implications to determine if it's just right)... so I'm going to be brave and try to not do that as much here.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I hope you are able to enjoy it. Please feel free to leave your honest thoughts, opinions and any constructive criticism that you have to offer.
