I set myself a challenge after the last blog. To try and finish a draft of the first book by the end of July 😱 Well here it is, the 31st July and the first draft is done. Let’s be clear…this draft is scribbled in a notebook, barely readable and needs a ton of workContinue reading “Draft done”

Practise makes progress

Why am I here?
Writing a children’s book; a desire in my heart since I was young…which now seems to have unexpectedly crept into my brain too. Putting pen to paper to write the ‘most helpful, inspiring, adventurous and fun children’s book possible’ seemed a tad daunting so I decided to do two simple things to help me begin.Continue reading “Why am I here?”
Who am I?
I forgot to write anything about me in the first post (blog lesson number 1, failed), so here I am. I am Jo. A 40 year old Mum to a bloody incredible 9 year old boy (I am biased). We live in Bristol with my other half; a full on, focused, mountain bike racing guyContinue reading “Who am I?”
