Games, sets and matches by Carol M Tetlow 7/11/2021 6:44:07 AM
Watching Wimbledon - the men's finals with one eye and wading my way through a pile of admin things that need doing. Nearing the end of the first set and so far very one-sided. I played this morning. Not that there is any comparison. I played with th... more

Time is of the essence by Carol M Tetlow 7/4/2021 2:14:41 AM
As the rain poured down yesterday afternoon, dashing any hopes of our tennis match against a local club, I spent a few happy/frustrating/satisfying hours designing a cover for my tennis novel. My super-speedy publishers had sent me a couple of ideas,... more

It wasn't a dream by Carol M Tetlow 6/27/2021 8:09:16 AM
I thought it might have been a dream but no, I do seem to have a publisher and one who communicates enthusiastically and promptly. All is going well (yes I do realise that I'm only a week into this but ever the optimist, despite all the trials and tr... more

Just when you're least expecting it... by Carol M Tetlow 6/20/2021 2:10:03 AM
I'm almost lost for words. Not a situation that I am often faced with to be honest. It's been such a good week after a really rubbishy one the week before when I felt full of despair for many reasons.
Thank you to my new publishers (yes, really!!... more

Life: The Stories Behind Stories by Leslie P Garcia 6/18/2021 3:06:19 PM
Maddie Wharton Saldivar is, according to one reader, "unforgettable." Most of us are, to someone. But Maddie's stories resonate to many of us--because life is the story behind her stories. And ours. ... more

Beginnings and endings by Carol M Tetlow 6/13/2021 3:38:41 AM
Hooray, hooray, hooray! I've given a talk at last. I was welcomed with open arms by the lovely ladies of the Long Marston branch of the Yorkshire Countrywomen's Association. It was an utter joy and only confirmed how much I've missed doing this. We s... more

Challenges, challenges by Carol M Tetlow 6/6/2021 2:04:08 AM
Tears and tantrums were the order of the day yesterday when I was vaccinating. May I hasten to add that it wasn't me who sobbed or stamped my feet but a succession of difficult people attending for their second doses and saw fit to be overwhelmed by ... more

An interesting look by Carol M Tetlow 5/30/2021 3:45:42 AM
Only fair to report on our triumphant start to the mixed leagues season, with an emphatic victory on a sunny evening this week (but no socialising afterwards). The celebrations had to be brief as there is no cause for complacency as this week our opp... more

A sniff of normality at last by Carol M Tetlow 5/23/2021 4:17:39 AM
Out of the blue, six requests to give my talks. Hooray! One for June, one for July, one in the Autumn and three for next year. Will I have to speak through a mask? Will they all sit and look at me, masked like a group of bandits? Or will they be spac... more

Good days, bad days by Carol M Tetlow 5/17/2021 12:33:26 AM
The legacy of rejection has hovered over me all week, despite trying to put on a brave face and pretend that I'm over it. These things just don't work that way, I'm afraid. I have, however, been uncharacteristically positive at a time like this and i... more

Glass half empty or half full? by Carol M Tetlow 5/10/2021 5:42:10 AM
So, it's a rejection from the publisher I had really really pinned my hopes on, after three and a half months of waiting. I have plummeted into the dreadful feeling of not being good enough, not going to try again, never write another word but I expe... more

Rain stopped play by Carol M Tetlow 5/3/2021 5:54:36 AM
Rain stopped play this morning and now looks set in for the rest of the day, so I have retreated to the garden room where I can be undisturbed, sort things out, try and write and maybe even indulge myself in a brief snooze as last night was peculiar ... more
