writing mystery
I would love to write a mystery - a romantic, funny mystery.
dream memories people
This house isn't mine anymore, but the memories are; the memories can't be sold. The building that housed my once-upon-a-time dreams stands for someone else now, as it did for the people before us, and I feel happy to let it go. Happy that I can begin again, anew, though bearing the scars of before. They represent wounds that have healed.
known
Have you ever not known something but known it at the same time?
heart order class
Journalism classes teach us that one must extract oneself from the story in order to report without bias, but often we need to be in the story in order to understand, to connect, to help the audience identify or else it has no heart; it could be a robot telling the story, for all anyone cares.
fall rivers luck
Always a chancer, always lucky, he'd fall into a river and come out dry, with fish in his pockets.
fall body groups
This love thing awakened a group of slumbering senses in my body that I never even knew existed.
house soul grew
There is absolutely nothing wrong with returning to the house you grew up in every now and again. It's good for the soul.
book germany stories
Whenever I go to Germany I find that my readers have T-shirts with my book covers printed on them. They come to all the events, they have gifts and they come with their families. They are always very open to sharing their personal stories.
thinking order faces
I think I need to face what I could have been in order to understand and accept what I am.
heart alex pay
Alex: Rosie, I wanted you to be the first person to no that I’ve decided to become a heart surgeon! Rosie: Cool, does it pay well? Alex: Rosie, it’s not about the money. Rosie: Where I come from, it’s all about the money. Probably because I don’t have any.
party soul
I was the life and she was the soul of every party.
running dad advice
Somewhere along the way, without me even noticing, I grew up Alex. For once, I couldn’t take advice from anyone around me about what I should or shouldn’t do. I couldn’t go running to mum and dad and I can’t compare my marriage to anybody else’s, we all follow our own rules.
growing-up children needs
Children need close friends to help them grow up, to discover things about themselves and about life. They also need close friends to keep them sane
heart people special
Not like a heart, which let people in without permission, held them in a special place she never had any say in and then yearned for them to remain there longer than they planned.
