new character?

Today I have been pondering whether I need to inject a new character in to the story?
It hasn't had anyone new in it for a while, and in fact we've lost a few along the way.

Names?
Ideas?

book coming along

I have managed to write a little in the evenings after work, which is quite a shock, I honestly thought I wouldn't be able too, with work, OU and general stuff. But have managed to do a bit.
Its a bit tense in the book at the mo, there are a few eruptions in the world of The Bonding.

Have asked on Face book what readers favourite characters are and is there any questions they would like to ask?
Wonder if I will get a reply?

Okay only a little entry today :)

Day off

For the first day in a week had a day off writing.

Tabbitha, my youngest had a operation yesterday (wisdom tooth removal) and so been a couple of stressful days.
Tried writing the wedding scene when she was down for op, but there was something uninspiring about sitting on a hard hospital chair in a cramped cubile on the ward, waiting. Whatever it was, I just couldnt write, nothing was coming...Strange for me !! Anyway have let myself have a day off and moved onto uni stuff today, and have submitted the essay that I have been working on over the last month, so a good productive day in some ways.

I really want to make this wedding beautiful, I have loads of ideas, is just getting them onto the paper with out waffling !!! I've invisaged honey suckle and the smellof vanila in the air...

new book

Have been working extremely hard on the new book. Hit 81 A4 pages today :)
Which is more in book pages.
I feel really excited about it, it is flowing well and there are a few bits I'm feeling so proud of already lol.
Wanna share !!!! But must resist, I don't want to spoil the story line and there quite a few surprises in this one!!

One thing I will let you in on is Erin's and James wedding, I've just reached the day and its SO exciting :) love a good wedding, its almost like planning one, thinking of colours and what dress the bride will wear etc. I feel that its fantastic they have managed to come together after all this time and Erin is going to make a honest man of him :)

OK...sneak peek at the dress....

Eternal:
'Lily fastened the last pearl button following her spine, on the back of Erin’s bodice, she looked amazing. The dress was a plain, cream bodice with puffed sheer sleeves which gathered at the forearm ending in a long cuff which had matching pearl buttons. The skirt was a fluted affair, in chiffon which moved around her as she walked, it was both simple and elegant.'

first draft, so will probably end up a little more finished, but enjoy xxx

FB idea

I have decided to post little snippets form the books on face book page.
Its quite hard to pick some without giving story away !
But I thought might draw people's interest.

I can't wait for this last two essays for uni, then I will be happy.
