New Book Release

It’s time for me to come clean


You may not know that I also write children’s books, as well as my adult stories. That’s because I write them under different names. After four long years, I’ve finally created a paperback version of the very first children’s book I ever wrote, Swooping Through the Milky Way. I’ll be celebrating the new book release with an online launch party 🥳🥳

It feels so right to have gone full circle to my beginnings as an author. If you’re wondering why it took so long, it’s because I had to change the cover. But I’m okay with that now. If you’re curious, come join my new book release launch event live on either Instagram or Facebook, or catch the replay if our time zones don’t align.



Onto Other Exciting News

I’m going on a literary trail in South West England!

I’ll be visiting Dulverton where Lorna Doone’s statue stands. I’ve owned a copy of her story since 1977 and even have a photo of me in a similar dress as on the book cover!

Lorna Doone is the story of John Ridd, a farmer who finds love amid the religious and social turmoil of seventeenth-century England.


I’ll also be visiting Tintagel where King Arthur’s legendary statue looms over the moors. 

Poldark scenery will definitely feature too: Winston Graham's Poldark saga explores the complications of love lost and the class struggle of 18th-century England with a light comic touch. 


Other stops include the birth town of Agatha Christie where I’ll be posing with her statue too, in Torquay; and Frederick Forsyth in Bucks.

Of course, no visit to Southwest country is complete without a stop in Cheddar Gorge - all the cheese! - and Glastonbury Tor. One of my own stories has a scene from Glastonbury Tor in it, though it’s not near to being released, it is in the editing stages. Even though I’ve written about Glastonbury Tor, I’ve never been, so I’m thrilled to be able to fill in any gaps in my descriptions. 

I guess you can tell I’m a little bit excited. 

I’ll also be catching up with dear friends who are mentioned in my memoir, En Route, and permission permitting, I might even share pics of them.

The Kind of Life You Want

Redefining Love and Marriage https://unsplash.com/@jennymarvin Committing to a life-long marriage through difficult times takes a lot of courage. I had to define for myself the kind of life I wanted. Was I willing to forgo some of my identity to take on the characteristics of a partner who, just 30 years ago, was a complete stranger to me? Had I really got to know him at all? In this life that we share, how deeply had we truly got to know each other? Not so deeply at all, I was to learn. In spite of the many epiphanies through our year-long travel escapade, what we did on a daily basis in the humdrum of a nine to five lifestyle eroded the  lessons learnt and the coping mechanisms we had adopted. Outwardly we have a wonderfully marvelous life, yet our invisible introspection, unseen by those around us, slowly dims the light in both of our eyes. Old habits took over as we forgot to create special moments together. Our lives became mechanical. Learning to redefine the meaning of l...

There's Always a Solution I said this to a friend the other day who was struggling with tech stuff. She was so grateful for the boost that  she persevered for an entire week , but she did it!  So let’s just expand on the notion here, that ' there's always a solution.' Elora Canne - Memoir Writer I'm delighted to share my conversation with you, from the Living Big Mindfully podcast where host, Kate Champion, and I discussed many later-in-life relationship topics.  But I'm particularly interested in sharing with you, the notion that there is indeed always a solution .  Not only in everyday life situations, as told above, but also in those deeper, more difficult to navigate situations as you'll discover on the podcast. There is always a way around a hurdle,  even if you can't jump over it. To listen in on our conversation, insights and solutions, tap this link:  Living Big Mindfully Podcast Book News: 🫂 Allow me to focus, just for a minute, on those solut...
