Last week I finally achieved my dream of publishing my first book. Unfortunately, no one warned me about a serious condition that some writers develop once they get that first book finished.
Rattling Brain Syndrome.
Apparently the book took up a lot of space in my skull and now I have valuable real estate up for grabs. As I frantically catch up on all the words the internet produced over the last year, I had a bit of a meltdown. There was short-circuiting and a bit of smoke coming from my ears, so I’ve decided to give it a break for today and share with you a few funny thoughts I had before my brain turned to goo.
I have my evil laugh perfected for the moment we finally meet.
I love those little bites of pizza – they’re dangerously delicious.
Just using the phrase now probably put me on a watchlist…
I’m not sure who the nearest Frank Furter is, but Lola is going to find you – and probably lick you because your name made her hungry!

I think all of us need to use Government Good Squad at least five times today. #anythinggoes

Such an achievement to have your 1st book out there Heather! Maybe working on another book could fill the gap? Alfie wants to know what your cheese budget is – so he can make sure I’m not short changing him 🐾 Thanks for being a brilliant #dreamteam host xx

The second book is being worked on as we speak! As for the cheese budget, I estimate it to be $100 per month. And it’s probably a bit higher than that…
