I left it in the beautiful church there. Instead of going back to get it, however, I've chosen to see this as a serendipitous opportunity to gift it to someone before publication - whether it's a visitor, a priest, someone cleaning the church - who knows. I'm quite glad, in a way.

Sorry to hear that. It was based on a friend's real life divorce. It was important to me that I captured it as well as I could. I hope you're doing ok x

So thank you, all of you! Your support means a great deal to me and I promise to keep writing uplifting, interesting books full of human kindness for as long as you will let me.

And every time they message me, comment on a post or leave a review, I feel incredibly grateful. Every author has bad days and it's a very unpredictable industry, but hearing from readers who love a book you've put your heart and soul into is THE BEST THING.

So now, when people write a review and say something like "I'm a fan of Victoria's work" it's a phrase that they probably give little thought to, but it makes me jump for joy.
It's amazing to me that there are people out there, people I don't know, who love my writing.
