For the love of it: My piece in Mslexia magazine

The last few months as my writing career has really taken off, it has brought a lot of  'oh my God' moments to my life.  I've been having so many of these lately that I feel I'm constantly on the verge of tears.

And today I had another one.

Mslexia magazine is celebrating its 20th anniversary with the March 2019 issue out now - and I'm in it.

I've written a piece for "The Love of It" section on blogging about Coronation Street, setting up the blog, writing Corrie weekly updates and TV Tie-In books.

And of course, the piece gives a mention to my debut novel Belle of the Back Streets too.

Now if you'll excuse me, I think I've got something in my eye.

My Mention in @Mslexia #amwriting

I've been a subscriber to Mslexia magazine (the magazine for women who write) since its inception years ago. I even interviewed their editor Debbie Taylor as part of my journalism project at the end of my degree in 2001.

I devoured every word of the magazine, determined that one day I would become a writer. I kept on writing, kept on devouring the words, kept on learning, did more writing, did less writing, got nowhere fast, stopped writing all together (almost), cancelled my subscription to Mslexia.

And then in 2015 I started writing again. I started getting published - short stories in women's magazines, the commission of a weekly soap opera for The People's Friend magazine, an agent, a handful of publishers fighting for my debut work, a deal for three novels.

Three.

Novels.

I nip myself daily. Is this real?

It seems as if it must be, because it's in Mslexia magazine.

I've been given a mention on their website on their Readers' Success Stories page, all the way down at the end.
