About
Thanks so much for stopping by!
I’m Liz, as you can tell from the big banner above. I am in the process of revising my first novel for ages 9+ . It’s a contemporary action adventure novel with a supernatural twist – it’s a little bit Indiana Jones and hopefully a lot of fun for readers.
I have probably been a writer for as long as I can remember. I think I may have killed a forest using up all the notebooks I could get my grubby little paws on, including my sister’s workbooks for school. I wrote in everything. Even if it just was my name. Yes, I was obsessed even back then, aged five.
These days I’m a little bit better. But only a little. I always have at least 2 (sometimes more) moleskines about my person to write in. My notes are made on the moleskine and the notes become stories.
Along with hubby Mark, I run My Favourite Books blog which is where I get the chance to review books and sometimes even give away books from a variety of publishers – both in the UK and USA. I love the MFB site and it’s growing. You can find that link here. We also have a friend in Canada helping with reviews – her name is Tina and she’s also an aspiring writer. My friend Sarah has also joined us and like me she’s an aspiring writer and an enthusiastic reader.
I’ve also been known to have an article up over at Mslexia’s blog. I review over at www.sfrevu.com and also a more recent and exciting freelance position at www.syfy.co.uk where I review books, comics and have the opportunity to write blogs.
I recently joined the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI British Isles) and am so pleased that I did. An organisation like this is the perfect buffer a writer needs – writing is a solitary pursuit, and being able to meet up with others of a like mind and attending professional and masterclasses is inspiring – and fun, of course!
And that, dear friends and visitors, is where I stand at present!
Thanks again for dropping by!
