So, I am going to attempt the Monday Mixer flash fiction challenge later today, so keep an eye out for that as I attempt to do the impossible.

Millie was sweating again but without running, she tried to shake the feeling that it was her bag, surely it couldn't be, other people must wrap their items in cling film too, and she slid down into her chair and rested her head in her hand. Millie tried not to think about what kind of trouble she would be in if it was hers? She took the earphones out and tried to sleep. Soon she would be in Paris and it would be OK

The sergeant looked around the briefing room; slowly taking in the officers he had available for the task. He figured that Miss Banloach would be more likely to trust someone closer to her age and the youngest officer who was the most able was Officer Justin Anwalt.
‘Anwalt’ he said. ‘I want you on the next train to Paris.’

As the train pulled into Gare du Nord in Paris Millie was already standing in a queue with her remaining bags waiting to get off the train. She had put all thoughts of her missing bag to the back of her mind and spent the two or so hours sleeping. I…

Its been a long time since I took part in Lillie McFerrins Five Sentence Fiction but after someone tweeted about it I thought, I'll just check the prompt and see if anything comes to mind, if so then I will take part.

The prompt was: Abandoned

And here is what my brain told me to write!

Please don't leave me I have to You don't have to...please... I have to Please don't leave me

Hello…I know it’s not Friday and here I am again…I just have things on my mind, that I need to share, and if you don’t want to read on about my eBook situation then look away now but be sure to come back on Friday for part 8 of Girls Best Friend. I hope you have been enjoying the series so far and are going to be following along until the end…but anyway…
As you know, I am releasing an eBook of two short stories at the beginning of March and will be on tour on various blogs which are all hosted by some wonderful and talented people, I am so lucky that they agreed to have me it’s not too late if you want me to stop by, a review isn’t necessary, we could just have a chat? Ok, enough of that for now. I am grateful for those I have.
I recently made what I call a mistake and that has led to this post – I know many others who would tell you that it wasn’t – and I shall elaborate. You see, I saw a site that was talking about indie p…

Hello everyone,

It seems a long time since I last posted anything that wasnt a story of some sort, no more rants for this little lady, and I have kind of missed it.

I do have a post to come with my missing christmas exchange, which is truly stunning, and also coming up we have announcement of my blogland book tour dates throughout March as well as Cover Art grand reveal! There will also be a launch party so come along for that.

In relation to the tour, I have 7 dates so far, some comedy on a hilariously funny blog, a playlist for the horror story for all you music lovers on a music blog, an interview on a poets blog that quite possibly could all be done in rhyming couplets and a few reviews too! I have also been invited to a stitchy blog which shall be great fun. But there is always room for more...even if its just one more of you? Can I tempt anyone? Details here.

Maybe you dont like horror then we can focus on the rom-com and if you dont like rom-com we can focus on the horror and …

Millie was sweating again but without running, she tried to shake the feeling that it was her bag, surely it couldn't be, other people must wrap their items in cling film too, and she slid down into her chair and rested her head in her hand.

'Okay everyone, come on in. That’s it, right, I think we are all here. Mike can you close the door please? Thanks'

'I have asked you all here for this debriefing after the events of this morning. As you know a suspected bomb was left on St Pancras station, it turns out it was not a bomb, but a few T-shirts, a bikini & some documents.'
'So why are we here then Sarge if it was just someone's actual luggage?'

'The documents that were in the bag are currently being examined by our forensic team. Some of you may be aware that a prominent b…

As Justin walked away from her towards the boarding gate he needed Millie was grinning. No-one had ever given her their card before. It was all rather exciting and for a moment she felt like she was in a movie. She felt smug as she thought about their brief meeting. Then she felt a bit embarrassed and within seconds she felt like an idiot. Justin must be crazy she thought, there must be something wrong with him, why would he want to go for a drink with me? She looked down at his business card.
Justin Held Private Investigator Specialising in retrieval of stolen goods (e.g. diamonds, people, dogs) Also available for carpet fitting, plumbing emergencies & removals.
Millie looked at her boarding pass and saw that she had to board 30 minutes before departure, she checked her watch and saw that she still had half an hour. She found it strange to be getting on a train and knowing she would have to go through much the same process that she would if she was getting on a plane. She picked up h…

‘There you are Millie, for a moment there I thought you had got lost!’ said Anne. 
‘Sorry Anne, the box is pretty heavy, and I didn't want to end up like you when I’m old…with a bad back and all.’ Millie didn't intend to be mean but considering she was doing Anne a favour the woman could at least give her some slack. She sat at her desk and started to go through her emails, it was then that she saw one from Mr.Rob and her heart almost stopped beating, she felt tiny palpitations in her chest and all at once felt like everyone in the office was looking at her. She clicked on it to open…

Dear Millie,
I hate to drag you into this but from the map on your desk and the instructions I found in your drawer, you already seem to be getting involved, and the thing is…I need your help…..
Millie’s last day at work hadn’t gone as planned. Firstly, she had got stuck in the stationery cupboard again and discovered things she would rather have not known. Then the email from Mr Rob was a total sur…

How are you all? Good I hope. I have some more news! I know as if the A to Z challenge news wasn’t enough – I like to spoil you all :D Well…there is a whole month called March before April begins and I shall be going on a Blog Tour! Or at the very least I hope I will be. To be honest, hey…come a little closer…let’s keep this between us, I am not 100% sure what they are! Shhhhh…our secret okay? I think what happens is I take the wares that I am trying to offload from blog to blog in the hope that I can be free of them…I like to keep things simple and I have visions of reading about existing blog tours and getting all paranoid, worked up and confused by it all, so I am hoping for some kindly bloggers who are willing to host me on their blog for just one post on one day in March. Could that be you? So…keeping it simple… YOU GET ·A copy of my ebook for FREE <<< it says free but I guess hosting me is the catch? ·I’d also like to offer you a badge for your website (providing I can get on…

Hello!

I have returned from my mini-adventure and am already thinking about the next one :D Suggestions anyone?

I took my sampler away with me and didn't get that much done. I added green stems to the letter A and at first I wasn't sure but it has grown on me and I think it looks very arts & crafty. What do you think? The smaller alphabets I stitched in other colours trying to choose a shade from the variegated thread. I like the green, the yellow and am unsure about the orange (top-right), what do you think?

So as a reminder, here is the A the last time we saw it...


and here it is now...


Apologies for the poor image...here is it with the other colours...


I would have done more but did not have the variegated thread with me...so this week I shall finish this page and move to page 2.

I hope you have all had a great week too! I see that you have as I have over a thousand blogs to read :D

Morning!

I have some good news and some bad news....What would you like first?

The bad news is we have lost a follower. They didn't even say goodbye. It's not really that bad in all fairness but it surely is good manners to say cheerio.

 We mustn't dwell, the show will go on!

Leading me onto the good news...in my head its good news! Hehe.

I have decided on a theme for the A to Z challenge 2013. Inspired by my last ramble and my current escapade I shall be writing:

The A to Z guide for the Paranoid Solo Traveller.

So on April 1st it shall begin and continue daily until we reach Z. I can hear some of you mumbling ...why is she telling us now? and unlike usual this time I have a reason.

Wanna hear it? The reason is i want this guide to not only be entertaining but also useful. And so I put the question to you...what questions do you want to know the answer to about solo travel? Be random, be specific & don't feel that any question is silly or obvious. In the past when…

Hello dear readers...I wondered if anyone was waiting for Part 5 of Girls Best Friend? Oh, Ok. Well...here it is then...

Millie had been unable to sleep and woke up in a cold sweat after horrific nightmares about what would happen to Elvis. She new that she would have to go to Marrakech to get him back, there was no way she would be able to live with herself if she didn't, but she was confused as to why Mr. Rob would take him. He had always seemed so nice. It was surprising how wrong you could be about people.

Millie had booked all of her transport tickets and reserved rooms at hotels but with the intention of travelling with Elvis, now all she could think was that she needed to get to him as soon as possible, and she started looking up direct flights to Marrakech. She looked a sight sat at her kitchen table. Her hair was stuck up at every angle and yesterdays make-up was smudged all about, her pyjamas were an old T-shirt and some leggings that she used to laze around th…
