MusicMonday: A Playlist for Reading Shy Feet

As I wrote Shy Feet, there were certain albums, certain songs and certain artists I kept going back to. I've compiled some of the songs I relied upon to get me through the long hours writing, re-writing, chopping, adding, editing, writing, re-writing and biting my nails. It's a playlist I still listen to a lot. It even features one or two songs that are referred to in the book... I wonder if you know which ones they are. Either way, I hope you enjoy.

Last week Amazon price-matched my short story See the Amalfi Coast (finally!) so you can get it completely free for your Kindle. I'm also happy to say that the paperback version of Shy Feet is still reduced by 10% across all the Amazon shops and if you don't have Amazon, you can buy it from Createspace who ship internationally. However, the cheapest way to buy the book is still via PayPal on this page - it's only $4.49 USD, £2.80 or  €3.30 (approximately) and you'll receive three versions of the book - epub, mobi and pdf.

And if you're a German speaker, you may like to read this article I worked on for Spiegel Online last week. (If you're here because of that article - Herzliches Willkommen!)

Now here's some sunshine from Amsterdam. The weather has been very kind to us recently and I hope it's sunny where you are.P.S. If you're on Instagram, the Travelettes are doing another Instachallenge. I'm going to do my best to keep up with it, but I have a lot of work and writing to do this month so we'll see... It's good to remember that it's okay to start things and not finish them, even though that's sort of against my religion. Have a happy week!
