What a long weekend! As an Elizabethan family it was wonderful to celebrate the 70 years dedicated service the Queen has demonstrated to following Jesus and serving her country. Back in February, my sisters and I entered the platinum pudding competition with our crown shaped cake, which I also wrote a poem about.  Although it wasn’t shortlisted we enjoyed making it for our neighbourly get together.

Last weekend also saw the celebrations for the Association of Christian Writers golden jubilee, which I was invited to present at.  For people wondering how I’ve spent my time since leaving school mid-May, the 23 hours it took to write the new content plus the 33 hours my various helpers took to put it together, might give you an idea of how busy it’s been! Meeting lots of other Christian writers was really inspiring and I learnt lots from those older and wiser in their writing journey.
