Birthday Thoughts

A little cake I ate today.

As it is my birthday today I wanted to share a few thoughts with my wonderful blog readers. Reflecting on this year, my blog has become an important part of my daily life and I appreciate everyone taking the time to support it.

Thank You

A big thank you for reading my articles. I originally had a blog that I used once in a while for a poem or eco-rant but I never took it seriously. Then in May I began to turn it into a working blog with regular posts about books and the environment. Occasionally I began to review TV shows and movies too.

This week I achieved 500 plus followers and this was great to discover. I feel as though people are kindly supporting my writing on a regular basis and this has been heart-warming. The 500 milestone means a lot to me and I thank you all very much.

Projects

Firstly, I have to mention that I went to see Steven Spielberg’s version of West Side Story again today and am absolutely smitten with it. Please go and support the film if you get the chance. Here is my review.

I have been waiting for my publisher to finalise my YA story about two teenagers who visit a mysterious house which changes their lives for good. To me, this is possibly the first of a couple of books starring these particular characters. Fingers crossed you will check it out when it finally gets released in spring. I will be sneaking out some extracts in the meantime to whet your interest.

So anyway, that was just a little post to say that I appreciate each and every one of you. Thanks for giving me something to celebrate on my birthday.
