Hiya 👋
I had hoped to share a decent leap in my progress this week, but alas, that was not to be.

I had hoped to share a decent leap in my progress this week, but alas, that was not to be.
Continue reading “Author Journal 23rd – 29th June 2022”It’s another Things in Scots day, or Friday if you want to call it that. 😁 As I mentioned in previous posts, it’s challenging to find snippets that don’t contain spoilers… or torrid sex scenes. 😈 But, I managed to find something that doesn’t give anything away, and it doesn’t have anything more than some naughty thoughts going on in the text.
