Chasing Fairytales is the continuing saga from Rebecca Nietert's first novel, "Heart of Gold." 

Life for the main character, Beverly, has changed far more than she thought possible.

In short, Beverly wants her fantasized fairytale life to come true. Unfortunately, Beverly has made some mistakes along her journey that are about to catch up with her.

Beverly wants a man of moral character, but to have such a man, she learns that she too must possess equal qualities. On her path to becoming the woman she’s always wanted to be, she learns that the perfection she’s always tried to perform isn’t bringing the happiness she thought it would. The truth of her past indiscretions begin to bubble up, as she frantically attempts to keep her skeletons hidden.

This heartwarming tale told from the point of view of Beverly, unfolds in an intimate tell all dialog that Rebecca Nietert’s novels are known for. Walk with Beverly, as she spirals up and down some extremely difficult circumstances into the arms of a man who offers her everything she’s wanted.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Blimey, it's been a long time since I last posted, which was about my new book, another true story, titled 13, which will be self published on Amazon at the end of this month. That is very exciting.

So to give you something else to read, for now and for FREE, click on this link https://www.wattpad.com/6786328-wrong-place-wrong-time-book-to-movie and read the first 3 chapters of the #BookToMovie BESTSELLER #WrongPlaceWrongTime

Another very exciting project is of course the movie. So, to give you a little update on the development, the script which is finished, is truly EXCEPTIONAL, it really is. It had my editor and I gripped from the first scene to the last, and I know what happened in Marbella and London, I was there!

The screenplay has been written by two top UK screenwriters who in fact are sisters, the Docherty Sisters. They have written many BBC TV drama's and also had a part in the screenplay for Danny Boyle's Trainspotting. 

Carol Ann and Aileen also have a huge following on YouTube for their other drama's. Here is the link if you wish to take a look: https://www.youtube.com/user/ThisIsDRAMA

Once I receive the nod from the Executive Producers, Golden Mile Productions and No Reservations, I will be updating with news of the director and cast for the movie in due course, but for now, settle down and read what happen's in the early events in #WrongPlaceWrongTime

Happy reading!

13 - The 70's - A True Story - First Chapter


On an average Sunday morning in 2004, a newspaper article caught my eye and immediately took me hurtling back to 1977 to events which had seemed so innocent at the time, but which turned out to be anything but. 

My 13th year was one of the most eventful of my life, (and that's saying something) ......



I nearly died, my best friend nearly died, I became a man and........................I went to Switzerland! 







13 will be released at the end of February!

My review of the Courthouse Hotel in Shoreditch, London

From the moment we walked into The Courthouse Hotel in Shoreditch, a Grade II listed former Magistrates Court and Police Station, my partner and I were treated like royalty.
After being escorted to our room, which overlooked the spacious roof terrace with impressive views over London, there was a knock on the door. As it was my girlfriend’s birthday, we were treated to a  complimentary glass of prosecco, which was a lovely touch.
Our room was beautifully furnished, with a king size bed, the finest percale bed linen and plump pillows that my girlfriend said (the following morning) were among the most comfortable that she had ever slept on. From our floor to ceiling windows we had a splendid view of the surrounding area and across the City.
After freshening up, we went for a delicious three course meal in the Judge and Jury dining room, which in its previous life had been a court room where the Kray twins were once charged with ‘demanding money with menaces.’ Across the impressive lobby, is the Jailhouse Bar, which houses converted prison cells where you can have a drink and enjoy a luxury spell in a cell.


Saturday morning was taken up with a leisurely and sumptuous buffet breakfast (served till 11am). The quantity, quality and variety of food available was magnificent with cereals, cold meats, cheese, smoked salmon and fruit, as well as a very tasty full English, of which the sausages were a special treat. 
When we couldn’t eat anymore, we asked for a tour of the hotel and the lovely Valeria, who had brought us our prosecco the previous evening, escorted us to look at the very impressive and elegant event rooms where they hold functions such as conferences, weddings and bar mitzvahs. The basement also housed a pool area with stream and sauna rooms as well as a spa. The fully equipped gym was adjacent. There was also a sports room with table tennis table and two bowling allies which would make for a fun corporate night out for team bonding.
Then the room that I personally was interested in, that being the 100-seater cinema. With a bar area just outside, with movie memorabilia adorning the walls, this would be a perfect place to mingle, have a drink before taking in a film on the big screen.  What better setting for a viewing of the screen adaptation of my book to movie BESTSELLER, Wrong Place Wrong Time, produced by Golden Mile Productions, once it’s complete.
All in all, we had a fabulous evening and stay at this hotel and one that I would highly and wholeheartedly recommended. We will most definitely be returning in the very near future.
