I never thought I could use a zombie story to bring all my characters together. It's great fun!<br /><br />Reb, I agree with your agreement. The road less travelled is always attractive to the contrary traveller. Why follow good sense when you can follow your heart, and never the twain?<br /><br />I'M NOT A ROBOT.

And the post is especially timely for me...as I continue on a WIP that sounded an irresistible call but that I knew to be risky. Would have been much safer to do another entry in an existing series. glitter noirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11728649916344336118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-60547706308405563552015-03-26T12:49:43.493+00:002015-03-26T12:49:43.493+00:00blimey Ruby you've made yourself sound so good...blimey Ruby you've made yourself sound so good, Jan is thinking of moving next door! ;) Good for you, always write what you want to, and whether it succeeds or not is not up to any of us anyway whatever some would have us believe. I've never done the 'right write' thing either. Enjoy your zombies and I too will look up your links (ooh matron!)

I think I described it as 'a psychological thriller of the highest order'.

I bless my agent every day because she takes the same view, even though my complete inability to build a body of work in any specific area must make me hard to sell and mean I'm never going to have any kind of profile in anything. Your books sound amazing :)Jenny Alexanderhttp://www.jennyalexander.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
