I was asked this week to contribute to another blog, Teacup and Cake, which runs regular book reviews.

 

I chose ‘Bitter Greens’ by Kate Forsyth. You can read my review here.

 

Kate is a wonderful Australian author, whom I met on a writing holiday in Skyros in summer of 2010. She ran a ‘how to structure your novel’ and was a real inspiration to me. Three years on and I have now finished my novel.

 

Kate is due to come over to the UK in September to speak at Oxford University. I’ll keep you posted about the details, as I highly recommend seeing her.
