We really make an outing of it and it\u2019s lovely to spend time with her. She does make me laugh with some of the things she says and does. There are three lovely rosebushes, fully established now, and mum loves roses, as did her father. My granddad was a keen gardener, and is buried right next door to dad, along with my Nan. So there\u2019s a high bar, to make it all look nice! It\u2019s so lovely to get it up to scratch again, although the Morden graveyard on the whole needed a bit of attention, they\u2019re short-staffed apparently, but at least we strimmed around our bit!<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"embedly-card\" data-card-controls=\"1\" data-card-align=\"left\" data-card-theme=\"light\">\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/z_SJtd0CdcY\">Grave flowers<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>No Description<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/cdn.embedly.com\/widgets\/platform.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>I decided for fun and colour, that I would buy some of those little springy insect ornaments, bright and mobile &#8211; some with windmills, a frog, a bee and more.

Even one of mum&#8217;s old partners\u2019 plots got the Beki treatment \u2013 we put Cosmos and herbs on this one! Mum does her best to keep her eye on it and she was delighted with what we had done. We had a repeat visit to the local garden centre cafe, too. Whilst there, we talked about the effect of what we eat on our physiology. She is doing lots of reading about it at the moment, for health reasons, and I have been doing so for years. There\u2019s so much out there now &#8211; one day everyone will know that much of your body\u2019s functioning is based on gut health, for instance. Bek is doing a juice thing at the moment and, of course, it\u2019s only a month until I go away on my long health retreat in Somerset!

We had a lovely time at the park, and I showed him the frog Windmill garden ornament I bought at the garden centre with mum and he loved watching the wind blow it round. He stands on his own now but it won\u2019t be long before he\u2019s walking, I\u2019m sure! Blake and I did some weeding out in the garden, she learnt how to pull out the weeds from the roots.

Now a lot of people will do elaborate stuff, and the demos from our lovely Gail are mouth-watering and inspirational, but what I use it for most of the time is as a mini oven. Heating up one or two portions, warming things, and if I have a lot of vegetables to cook, pressure cooking. It is so fast and will save electricity rather than heating up a big oven.

What made you choose Mary as the heroine for your book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I needed somebody a bit different for this storyline \u2013 Mary has a very interesting background, and things may not be quite what they seem with her!

What books do you read?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes! I would say 80% of what I read is from the crime genre. Crime writers are my rock stars. I&#8217;ve read every single book by Ian Rankin, Peter James, Tess Gerritsen, Harlan Coben, Patricia Cornwell, John Grisham \u2013 I could go on and on!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q3. What\u2019s the best thing anyone\u2019s ever said to you about your novels?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Somebody sent me a message to tell me they hadn&#8217;t read for years until for some reason they picked up one of my books. They wanted to tell me that I had re-ignited their love of reading. That was just incredible to hear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q4. What\u2019s your writing routine?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m at QVC three or four days every week, so I cram writing into the other days when I&#8217;m at home. I like to start early in the morning, usually after a workout or a run, and then finish about\u00a04 o&#8217;clock.
