My Lake District Colouring Book

A few of you have asked me about my adult colouring book which I created a very long time ago when living in the Lake District. I used to walk around the lake at Rydal Water most days (where my romance Lake Love Found is based). Not the best colouring book in the world but I hope you'll enjoy it all the same.

Currently Working On

​​I'm currently working on 'Poisoned in Paradise,' the first book in my new series of 'Grime Fighter Mysteries' and expect to have this one ready for Patrons and Kickstarter backers for free within the next few weeks before it comes out on Kindle Unlimited, Amazon, and in paperback, hardback and audio. Tentatively it will be ready for patrons on the 1st July!

A mysterious outbreak. Tourism under threat. Can Rynelle solve the case before it becomes a tropical hot zone?

Public Health Officer Rynelle Macleod loves keeping her Caribbean island pristine for visitors. But when a visiting billionaire is struck down with food poisoning, she has to cut her own vacation short to stop a nasty crisis. And she’s sure the skin-and-bones stalker who keeps hitting on her is actually a reporter sniffing out a dirty scoop. 

NASA Astronaut Joe Johnson struggles to blend into the blue-water paradise. Secretly on an underwater mission, the ISS-stationed scientist is focused on avoiding people and pathogens and getting his gravity-laden body back into shape. But it’s the larger-than-life, germ-busting beauty he continually bumps into that’s making his heart work overtime.

In a race to prevent microbial mayhem, Rynelle slowly warms up to the scrawny man interfering with tracking down the toxin-inducing culprit. But when Joe thinks she’s about to expose his hidden research habitat, he’s forced to choose between career contamination and an out-of-this world romance.

Can the grime-fighting duo save the island from a septic catastrophe and give their love-infected hearts the all-clear?

Poisoned in Paradise is the first book in the feel-good Grime Fighter cozy mystery series. If you like entertaining mixups, quirky characters, and health-conscious hijinks, then you’ll adore Sarah Jane Weldon’s escape from reality.

What I'm Currently Watching

Having been pretty much on #lockdown since my dog Isla died back in February, most of my connection to nature and the outdoors has come through the vlogs of two Brits living in France. They both started their YouTube channels during lockdown and thanks to the support of YouTube views and patrons they have been able to keep going and are using patron support to restore and renovate two different chateaus (which you can volunteer in, and stay in as B&Bs once lockdown is over). I am one of their patrons, and am thoroughly enjoying their vlogs about chateau life - so much so, that I've already got some ideas for chateau-themed cozies for the future! So watch this space! But I hope you'll enjoying watching their videos too (and by doing so, you'll also be helping them to restore these two beautiful buildings). I don't know about you, what I think a chateau would make a great place for a murder mystery weekend!

Brand New Patron Tiers

Inspired by the Chateau Diaries progress, patron and Kickstarter backer requests for higher level tiers, and because Patreon announced new merchandise features on their platform this week, I added 3 new tiers. This means you can now support Free Book Friday and my writing for as little as $1 a month in exchange for all my books for free before anyone else reads them, plus a whole bunch more!
