Originally posted November 2023. We’re firmly on that road to winter now. There’s been no frost or snow, but it’s coming.
I went out. Briefly. I took some pictures. Quickly. My current illness/medication situation is still preventing sleep and making me a bit hyperactive, and I thought I might attempt some daily blogging this week. So, there will be some seasonal Scottish photos being shared over the next few days.
First Review of Cabriole
Cabriole, the second book in the Dancer’s Journey series, is out now. This is the notorious one, the one that a publisher wanted me to change. To be fair, they did assure me that it wasn’t because they were bigoted or prudish, but because it had to have set tropes to fit their romance line. But still, I have wondered how people would react to this more unusual story.
From emmalolly13 on TikTok: “This series has a special place in my heart… I feel so blessed to continue reading Amalphia’s story… Her journey with love has been rough… this is such a soul-touching series.”
See you a little further down the road to winter soon!

My daughter grew up a dancer. Your books are the perfect gift for her.
I hope she enjoys them. They do go quite dark in places.
She’s in her mid-20’s and knows how dark the world can be (balanced by a joyful soul).
She sounds wonderful.
We are on the road, too, Ailish. It’s always tempered by the thought of the upcoming holiday season, but January and February are coming too – my worst months!
Those are the coldest months here. Leg-warmer time!
Winter is coming, as it does every year. I do my best to cope with it.
Hot chocolate helps 🙂
It sure does!
Your books have inspired me to watch The History of Scotland.
That sounds interesting!
Great to get such a nice review. It pays to stick with your own artistic vision.
Yes, sometimes it’s like protecting the story.
Such beautiful photos! Where I live it’s just now getting cooler, I miss winter. Such a lovely review for you.
I’m glad you like the photos and hope you stay cosy!
May winter only bring you health, happiness, and inspiration for new stories.
Thank you so much, Sarah 🙂
