Pregnant, barefoot but not in the kitchen!  My #artwork on the wall; post-birth, do I take A Leap Of Faith and concentrate on #art, or #writing?

What a great way to see out the 1980s: meeting Steven Tyler on Saturday, November 25th, 1989! 


..... and I'll leave you with a few more, just for laughs.  First one is Proofread Julia and me, in 1984 😂😆😅


 I think this one was at the beginning of 1983 
(I had my first blonde highlight in 1984!)

 Julia outside my shop in Northampton, in 1984

 ...and a very early 1980s one - think this was taken in April 1980


Might think about doing a 1990s one some time......

The Z Files: Rose Edmunds ~ Leo

Astrology ~ a bit of fun, a load of rubbish, or something to take seriously?

I invited around 70 writers/bloggers to write a piece about how typical they are of their sign, and how its traits affect their writing life ~ if at all...

Has your favourite writer been featured yet?  Links to all previous posts at the end of this one :)


It's luscious Leo the lion time again ~ I present Rose Edmunds, writer of financial and psychological thrillers, and a partner in Mainsail books.  Her latest tome about the evils of high finance in the City, Concealment, has been extremely well received; you can read my review HERE 

What does Rose have to say about being a Leo but a bit of a Virgo?  Warning: I suspect she might have approached this in a slightly tongue-in-cheek fashion ;)


"Hi Everyone – it’s great to be posting on Terry’s blog.  What a fantastic idea – I wish I’d thought of it!  Of course when she asked me I said yes, because I’m so helpful, and I didn’t want to be left out. Obviously I’d have preferred being in charge of the whole thing, because I’m a born leader, but I wouldn’t want to miss a chance to show off.  My husband says I’m far too bossy to be charismatic, but what does he know? 

Creative? Well naturally - I’m a best-selling author after all! Although I’m not at my best when hung over after a sociable night out."


"I’ve actually spent a lot of time crafting this because I really need to be the best in the series. Also, it’s been a Herculean task to find a picture that does me justice, because I’m so image conscious. But because I’m very determined I eventually located this one, of which I’m very proud.

Finally, being on the cusp, I have a Virgo alter ego who is appalled by all this self-aggrandisement, but that’s another blog post…"


Having the odd planet (well, four) in Virgo myself, I feel Rose's pain!  I'm looking forward to her next novel, the continuing adventures of "Boy-have-I-got-some-crap-to-come-to-terms-with" Amy from Concealment ~ you can keep up with all news on Ms Edmunds' website HERE  and follow her on Twitter

Now, let us find Rose some fellow Lions to play with in the sunshine...

...certainly enjoying her time in the spotlight ~ 
author of The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins..

... and I've chosen SciFi and mystery author Ray Bradbury, because he shares your actual birthday, Rose (though not the year, I hasten to add!)


Coming next - a bestselling chick lit Capricorn
