Dear Friend,

I hope your May is turning out to be a productive one, with many irons in the fire! 

My May came with a bit of a fun filled surprise, I was lucky enough to be awarded the Brisbane City Council's Innovation Award to turn my real world choose-your-own-adventure project into an App!

** Book Giveaway **

I'm currently running a giveaway on Goodreads at the moment with ten signed copies of 'The Grand Adventures of Madeline Cain' up for grabs. Madeline Cain is a comedy written as though you are reading the main character's Facebook page. I'm gearing up for the launch of the second book in the series, which I just finished the first draft for in April, and I'll be posting about the success of all my launch activities as the date gets closer, so keep an eye on the blog.

**Putting Fact Into Fiction **

One of the hardest lines to walk as an author is the fact/fiction line. How much detail has to be ‘real’? When is it ok to throw the research to the winds? At what point is the research you’re doing, too much? 

This post by historical novelist Helen Carey tells you how to balance fact and fiction without sacrificing accuracy or a good story!
