Today’s WordPress question.

Who do you spend the most time with?

I spend most of my time with my little dog Cotton.

She sits at my feet while I work. She sits beside me on the couch in the evenings. She comes on walks with me to the beach and down by the river.

During the school holidays, when my daughter is off school, nothing changes. Cotton is still the one who’s by my side most of the day!

And here she is!

How does she earn her keep?

Well, she helps me with my writing. She listens to all my ideas,  hugs me on my crap days, hugs me on my good days, supports me when I feel the need to ‘get rid’ of certain characters – because it’s hard losing characters – and when I need a break she tortures me until I take her for a walk.

Cotton was with me during the creation of Secrets in the Babby House. 😉

Would you like a peek inside the pages? It might just be your cup of tea!

Set in a gossipy small town in Ireland at a time when marriage is for keeps and sexuality is repressed, Secrets in the Babby House is a family saga over three decades that starts in 1956. It is a story of love, deception, and stolen diaries filled with sins and secrets.
