Cover reveal!

As promised in my last post, the cover for Bound by a Baby Bump has hit my inbox, and she's a real heart-stopper. Drumroll please ...

Blue skys, azure seas, bright colours, super-shiny but windswept hair, hunky hero -- check, check, check, check and double check. And, of course, one very adorable baby bump -- I love it!

I'd love to know what you all think :) Is it making you dream of a getaway to the beautiful Dorset coast (and if not, check out the photos from my research trip -- England really can look this good!)

Anyway, I'd better get back to the revisions to the next book, but I'm so excited that I'll soon be shart BBaBB with you all!

Lots of love,

Ellie

Wait, it's 2015 already?!

Hello my dear readers, and a belated Happy New Year!

What a year 2014 was - two books published, more books signed, a wedding, a honeymoon, a new house, an ungodly amount of time spent at Screwfix, and that was only the start of the excitement.

So what does 2015 have in store for me? Well, another two books for a start, beginning with Bound By a Baby Bump in May. I'm expecting to see cover artwork in the next few weeks, and have my breath well and truly held. I LOVE seeing new covers for the first time! There'll be more time in Screwfix, I have no doubt, until this house moves on from 'habitable' to 'home', and plenty of time with the project spreadsheet (oh kitchen brochures, how I love and despise you, with your shiny pages and beautiful pictures and completely beyond my budget and square-footage wine fridges, and fancy carousels, and double range ovens, and enormous walk-in larders).

And my new year's resolution? I'm going to read more. So every time I see a book recommendation, I head to a certain ebook seller and hit 'One Click', which is going to have a detrimental effect on the Screwfix budget, but an almightly positive effect on my happiness.

Oh, and I'm going to finish the next book of course -- two days to go and all that's left to do is a couple of pieces of fact checking. It'll be following Baby Bump into the world soon!

What are your new year's resolutions? More reading? More writing? More time to stand and stare? Please share!

Ellie
