Half of a year is a milestone and time to look back at my writing year so far.  It's important to me to write these blog posts as a reminder of what I've done as I tend to take my skills for granted. And also, if I don't make a song and dance about my achievements, no-one else will. Have trumpet, will blow! And so, here we go.  As well as all of the achievements listed below, each week I write my  soap opera  Riverside   for  The People's Friend magazine . I've also regularly written  short stories which have been published in women's magazines including The People's Friend and The People's Friend Fiction Special, My Weekly and Take a Break's Fiction Feast.

I s et up a twice-daily quiz for Corrie fans to join in with at the  Coronation Street Blog  Twitter  @CoroStreet...
