I have finished my fifth novel now, and am considering going back and revising some of my other ones.

Good luck.... I am still trying to complete my first book, when do you find it best to write, your most inspirational moments... being a mother at times find it extremely hard as I always prioritize my children's needs first, and then feel guilty of what I have not done...

Let us know if they get published always good to help promote fellow :alien: :D

QM when are you publishing them?


Hopefully, by some time next year. I think that one of the novels that I am working on will be my foot in the door. Allen and Unwin tend not to accept unsolicited manuscripts of science fiction, but I am working on a mystery with a twist, and they accept unsolicited mystery manuscripts.

Are these books open to constructive criticism? Or would you rather keep them top secret?

Until I can guarantee their safety, I am actually leaving them to friends in real life that I can trust with constructive criticism.

BTW, I've abandoned my earlier two ideas for new novels in favour of a new idea, a grand space opera with a horror element.
