Read all about it....

 

Today I am excited about writing.  Yesterday it was reading, today it is writing – sums me up!

About ten years ago I started to write a fictional book for children and it has been on my hard drive ever since but at last I have decided to do something about it.

A wonderful family friend who is a fellow Scot now living in Massachusetts is doing the drawings for it and seeing them for the first time last night made the dream seem so much more real.  I am going to start with putting it on to kindle and then see how we go but to be honest it is not about making money. The thought of someone/anyone reading something gives me a lot of pleasure.  Writing my blog and being published in magazines and newspapers is always nerve wracking and wonderful all at the same time, but this takes it to a whole new level!

I am so excited and when it is out, you will have no choice but to read all about it here!

Hello and welcome...

Over the years as a writer, journalist, TV Presenter and tweeter (in no particular order) I have written about what I have been paid to write about. I always have loved reading other peoples blogs, magazines and newspapers hearing different opinions and finding out about the most simple pleasures; good restaurants, coffee, hidden gems and anything which can entertain me.
 
Now I am going to try my hand at it and hopefully entertain a few of you! I am lucky enough to travel to over 15 different countries around the world every year and have done so for the last 8 years.

I love discovering new places but, more than anything, I love getting back home to Scotland. I had considered calling this blog "We See the Same Sun" as I always think that no matter where you are in the world, there are some things that bind us and make the world seem a very small place. I always think of that if I am feeling far away from loved ones.

 
As it happened I went for something a little less serious although somehwhere that we should all aspire to go. Cloud 9 and a half is happiness + a little bit more!


I hope you enjoy this blog and it gives you even a few minutes entertainment in your day - wherever you are in the world.
