Hi everyone just sticking my head in to say hello as it’s been a while since I last posted anything. It’s been crazy busy here over the last month the kids have been on summer holidays so we’ve been going on various different day trips seeing what there is to do on our doorstep and it’s been brilliant everybody has got to see and do what they want so far.
Did you know that Stephen has published his first novel? The Kirkwood Scott Chronicles- Skelly’s Square will be one month old tomorrow!! I’m beginning to think that writing the book was the easy part and I’ve got the short straw of marketing it I hadn’t realised just how time consuming and hard work it actually is I’m fairly certain that I’ve gained quite a few more grey hairs in the last four weeks lol but it has to be done to get the book’s profile out there.
Stephen has had so much support from all of you throughout his writing process and we honestly cannot wait to hear of your thoughts of it when you get round to purchasing and reading your copy.
As I mentioned before the book will be one month old tomorrow and it has received fourteen FIVE STAR reviews!! We’ve had reviews from Ireland 🇮🇪 UK 🇬🇧 USA 🇺🇸 Canada 🇨🇦 and Australia 🇦🇺 – thank you 😊
Stephen and I can keep plugging and plugging the book telling you how amazing it is but I think the reviews say it all so below I have posted the reviews and a few of the #Skelfies we’ve received so far. If you haven’t purchased your copy yet it is available to buy as an ebook or paperback format worldwide from your country’s local Amazon Marketplace just do a search for The Kirkwood Scott Chronicles- Skelly’s Square.
Enjoy reading What the People Think of the book and seeing all the happy faces with their copy of the book.
That is awesome 🙂

My husband was laughing as I was hugging my copy. He likes it when I’m happy, and I’m over the moon with how fabulous (how could it not be?) the whole of it was. Go Team Black!

Perhaps, one day you’ll do a book tour here, and you can learn the fears of “Tex-Mex” food. 😏

Austin – there are some smashing bookstores that aren’t chains. The trick with Tex-Max is figuring out what is spicy. I would have suggested sushi, but somehow I don’t think that’s North Ireland’s favorite experience.

Oh no sushi is not my friend Stephen doesn’t like raw anything even his steak has to be extremely well done I do like Tex Mex but I think the American version is slot more exciting than ours 😂 As for a book tour who knows what is round the corner I love USA I actually told Hannah today I should’ve been born there I would pack us all up and move there in a heartbeat

Right until you had your first Texas summer. We’re running in the triple digits with heat advisories until 8 pm. However, if you’re ever here, I’d be delighted to take you someplace where the only raw item is a salad.

It’s a big place – and loads to see, and do and taste! Oh, if you can – The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta – 700 hot air balloons taking off in the morning? Madness, and amazing. I’ll start badgering Mom to make YOUR book her book club pick.
