Cecilia Peartree – woman of mystery
setting the scene in Pitkirtly
Over the past couple of days I've unexpectedly completed and published 'Rights and Wrongs', the novel I had to abandon temporarily, almost finished, at the start of April. Also unexpectedly, it has made its way to Kobo and elsewhere very quickly so I am able to add a list of links to retailers at the …

Somehow or other I've reached milestones in two new novels at the same time. I can now divulge/confess that I've been working on a new Max Falconer book in the mornings and a new book in one of my Regency series in the afternoons. I'm still not 100% clear about which of the Regency series …
For various technical reasons, two of my recent publications have taken a while to reach non-Amazon ebook retailers, but I'm happy to say that both 'A Little Too Fond of Cake' and 'Pamela Prendergast and the Fatal Accident' have now found their way on to most of the other sites. So this post is simply …
Because I'm trying to do some editing at the moment, naturally I would prefer to be doing almost anything else. I found myself wielding a duster for the first time for months (maybe even years) earlier today, and I've just sent out a summary of actions from a meeting in record time, which will probably …
As some people reading will know already, I'm working on book 25 in my Pitkirtly Mysteries series. Although I'm generally happy with the Pitkirtlyworld I've created in my previous novels, I've been wondering for a while whether I should take the characters away on holiday for a change. Book 25 isn't actually much of a …
I am fairly happy to say goodbye to July. Due to circumstances beyond my control I've spent more of the month in the house than expected, which has translated into some extra writing, but only enough to exceed my Camp NaNoWriMo goal by about 10,000 words. The goal was ridiculously small to start with as …
Much of my writing time now seems to be spent in keeping up with the three ongoing series that I want to write more novels in for one reason or another. However, I do step off the merry-go-round from time to time, and this is theoretically one of the times, because as I did last …
The River Ness in Inverness As mentioned in my New Year post, I've been focussing on the completion of my two unfinished novels, and I'm happy to say I've actually got to the end of both of them, more or less. Because 'The Elusive Widow' is longer and therefore will probably be harder to edit, …
I'm happy to announce that yesterday I created a new writing plan for 2022, despite having failed in all previous attempts to keep to one. I think there's slightly more hope with this one as I added a new element, which was that as well as turning over the page and starting again, something I'm …

This afternoon I published the latest of my Pitkirtly Mysteries to Amazon and Smashwords. As I write this, it should already be visible on the Smashwords site, which happens almost instantly, but the time it takes to appear on other sites always varies depending on the review process of the various online bookshops. It's entitled …
