Eggs, Pride, re-writes and Bath – what on earth am I writing about this week? It’s June already and I don’t seem to have something to babble about today. Oh, I may swoon with the shock!
Eggs
Actually, it’s National Egg Day in the US, but what can I say about eggs? Eggs of many species have been around long before human existence and I’m not getting involved in the egg and chicken debate. I don’t have a favourite way to eat my eggs. Give them to me scrambled, fried, poached or boiled; I’ll eat them all.
Pride
June is Pride month and I’ll be dipping into some LGBTQ+ romance fiction. I need to finish reading Bride by Ali Hazelwood (I’ll be honest it’s not got me hooked despite being a TikTok sensation), then I’m moving on to Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston.
After that, I’m looking forward to reading the third short story in a trilogy by Will Forest, 3 Dukes and the Tower of Time. I enjoyed the first two stories and think this one will take a darker turn. If lucky, I may have time to read another historical romance by Alexis Hall.
Don’t forget that I’ve written a few posts about LGBTQ+ history. Click on the links below for some fascinating facts about LGBTQ individuals and more:

Re-writes
This month, I must finish re-writing the fourth and final story in my Men of Trade series. Since starting The Radical Heiress in November 2022, I’ve re-written several sections because it wasn’t working. Then I decided to rewrite at least 75% of the manuscript completely because the connection I wanted to create between the MCs was non-existent. The new ending needs to be written and then I’ll be steaming through self-edits. My publisher wants all four books in a readable state before the serious editing begins.

Bath
What I’m most looking forward to this month is a trip to Bath! (Squeal!) Yes, I will walk in the footsteps of Miss Austen next weekend, so you’ll have a break from my babbling next Monday.
I am, however, devastated (yes, it’s a strong word, but it truly encapsulates my feelings) that the Fashion Museum in Bath will be closed while I’m there. I’m sure that brunch at the Pump Room, a tour of the Roman baths, a visit to the Jane Austen Museum, and wandering along the Royal Crescent will be more than enough to fill my time.
Have a fabulous June, and I’ll be back with wonderful pictures and babbles about Bath on the 17th.
