With the release of my third book this year, Finding Zoe, I look back in amazement at how much has happened to me in the intervening months since I sent my first manuscript off in January. All of it fabulous. My fourth book, Flynn's Kiss is well under way, but Flynn has been hugely obliging by taking a backseat for now while I complete my 15,000 word short story challenge between fellow Liquid Silver authors, Allyson Lindt and Eva Lefoy.
