Ingredients
- take 9 enthusiastic writers
- add a location to meet
- a feature character
- a single and primary setting
- a title
- a blurb
- a cover
Method
- gather your writers together for some blue-sky
thinking
- allow the initial thoughts to ferment for a month
or so
- bring the writers back to the meeting location to create the character common to all the stories and to name her
- at the same time agree
the location that is to be used as the model for the single and primary
setting for the fictitious world of the book
- leave the writers' thoughts and ideas in a marinade for a month or so
- gather your writers together and discuss, ensuring
that the resultant stories are well mixed and cohesive
- let the writers braise their stories slowly on a low
heat for two months, remembering to check the seasoning occasionally
- once fully cooked, allow to cool before decorating with the
cover
- dress with an agreed title and a blurb and serve immediately to the reading public
I’m very pleased to be able to
tell you the Miss Moonshine’s Emporium of Happy Endings is available on Amazon
Miss Moonshine's Wonderful Emporium has stood in the pretty Yorkshire town of
Haven Bridge for as long as anyone can remember. With her ever-changing stock,
Miss Moonshine has a rare gift for providing exactly what her customers need: a
fire opal necklace that provides a glimpse of a different life; a novel whose
phantom doodler casts a spell over the reader; a music box whose song links
love affairs across the generations. One thing is for certain: after visiting
Miss Moonshine's quirky shop, life is never the same again...
Nine
romantic novelists from Yorkshire and Lancashire, including best-selling and
award-winning authors, have joined together to create this collection of
uplifting stories guaranteed to warm your heart. This intriguing mix of
historical and contemporary romances will make you laugh, cry, and believe in
the happy-ever-after.
I’ve really enjoyed working with my writing colleagues on this project
and am immensely proud of our collective achievement. I hope you enjoy the book.
