I give myself a writing schedule. I find if I'm really stuck in a section, I'll skip it and come back to it later. If I can't find the excitement for a scene or some dialogue then I take it out and make a new plan. For Yellow Crocus I thought I should write a scene about Grandmother's Wainwrights's death. I outlined it. I imagined it. I sat down to write it multiple times. But nothing every really flowed. I asked early readers if they cared to learn about that. No one seemed to miss it, so I eventually dropped it.

Just finished listening to Yellow Crocus on Audible, your story blew me away!! My emotions were all over the place and I knew from early on this was a keeper. All I kept saying was, 'Wow!' I have Mustard Seed on my kindle for ages but had no idea it was a sequel. As soon as I realised it was I threw myself MSeed. I'm on chapter 1 and would like to know Will there be part 3?

I just finished 'Yellow Crocus' last week and immediately bought 'Mustard Seed.' I hope to start it this evening. I saw that you will be releasing a companion story to this? When will this be out? I would love to read it as soon as I finish the Mustard Seed. I'm in love with Mattie and Lisbeth's stories!
