The Seven Sassy Sisters Strike Back

Who are the Seven Sassy Sisters? What on earth do they do? What's all this about a double life? Why is a small, knitted, blue octopus so important? Is it even possible to write both Blaze and Sweet at the same time? Who likes Stephen King and romance too? What is it about displaced Australians and Superromance? Who likes hiding out in their garden shed? And whose husband is worthy of a Presents cover?

For all the answers to these questions and more, check out www.sevensassysisters.com.

Blog launches 14th of May. Be there or be square.

P.S. the ed offered to read chapter 1 of my rewrite. So I sent it off to her and guess what? She LIKED it!! Finally, after nearly a year of getting everything wrong, I am getting something right. :-)

Jackie, that's EPIC. It's my new word for May and seems to fit here. Are you doing cartwheels?

Francine Howarth said...

Hi,

Well done! See, it all came right in the end, and I feel sure the follow-up chapters will fulfil your ultimate dream!

Re TSSSSB: looking good - nice professional touch to it. My god, though, you've got some dead serious keyboard bashing to do to keep up with two blogs and writing novels.
