It had been on my shelf for ages before I read it and I really enjoyed it. I've still got the other two to read.

In my local play place the quiet session was always why I was in work. It certainly seems to run in families. My son's in the specialist school which has been brilliant for him.

🤣I used to take mine when it opened at 9 am as 3 of mine have autism and didn't like it too busy. It was quite nice and quiet and I could get loads done

Same here! My kids are getting older so the joy of soft play has gone.

That's reassuring to hear! I initially had 4 comps so I'll select the two other that fit best. Thank you so much.

My 17 year old daughter wants to be a writer. She's currently doing her Alevels and looking at creative writing courses.

Every time I do #RevPit #10Queries sessions, I refer authors to this fab article about QL
janefriedman.com/query-letters/
This covers the basics of the blurb, the demographics, and the bio. How long each should be, what to include, what to skip.

Caressing her silken arms, her breath misting before her like an angels veil, Jess slid her long, porcelain foot into the frigid bubbling embrace of the creek. The looming trees towered over her. Jess halted. Somewhere, beyond the periphery of her sapphire eyes the forest awoke with rustling leaves.
