Happy Valentine’s Day.
In these days of convenient online book sellers, it’s sometimes too easy to forget how wonderful it is to be in a shop surrounded by books and people who are passionate about books. And when that happens on the eve of Valentine’s Day – it’s a romance writer’s dream.
On Friday night, we were at Waterstone’s in Windsor, for a delightful evening of chat about books and writing. The addition of some heart-shaped treats from Hotel Chocolat made the night even better.
In honour of the occasion, we are going to post some tips on how to write a really romantic scene – come back soon for those.
In the meantime, thanks to the staff at Waterstone’s for making us so welcome – particularly David – who presented us each with a long-stemmed red rose and chocolates at the end of the evening..

David – you sure know the way to a romance writer’s heart.
Our next outing is at Castelnau Library in West London on Saturday 20th. Click here for full details, and to reserve a free ticket. We hope to see you there.
