Attention, lovers of sweet romance! On the 25th and 26th July, 2017, my two-story eBook will be free to download on Amazon kindle.
A Couple of Announcements
16 MarTo all my loyal blog readers…
I’ve been writing eBooks (and tree books) now for six and a half years. It’s been a journey of hopes fulfilled, and hopes dashed. I’ve known both brickbats and bouquets from reviewers. I’ve known the joy of a writing a best seller – ‘Longbourn Revisited’. I’ve known the sadness of publishing more than one title that’s been loved by most reviewers, yet overlooked almost entirely by the book-buying public. ‘Uncertain Love’ and ‘Charlotte’s Lance and the Round Fable’ spring to mind in the latter category.
Enough of that.
The time has come for me to have a break – perhaps forever – from writing.It’s so long since I touched the piano that I’ve all but forgotten how to play. Ditto for painting in watercolours – something I used to love.
So, what’s left?
I have twenty-five titles out there, all available on Amazon. Within hours, both ‘Romance, 50’s Style’ and ‘More Romance, 50’s Style’ will be US99c and US99p Countdown deals. For those who enjoy clean, nostalgic romances, these are well worth a look, especially at this price.
Here are the links.
Enjoy!
Drying its Wings: A Little Black Cormorant
21 JulMaybe because it’s midwinter, I often spot Little Black Cormorants, wings outstretched – drying off in the sunshine. Nearly every day I see a flock of them perched atop the shark-proof net. En mass they are quite an impressive sight. I’ve even seen them interspersed with white Egrets. That is fantastic!
Enjoy this shot of a single bird as it rests.

Stop Press: Any minute now, ‘Encore’, a collection of twenty-five short stories of romance and humanity, will be a Countdown deal on both Amazon US and UK. If you like sweet, clean short stories, then maybe this is for you! Don’t miss it at this rock-bottom price!
Another Post from Chicki!
13 JulHello to all my fans! I’m so happy to report that Mummy has finally yielded to my urgent demands and once again given me access to her blog. And about time, too! I’m sure all of you must have been out of sorts, so long have you been waiting and hoping for my triumphant return…
Doubtless you’ll be relieved to know that life has been treating me pretty well. I’ve made some new doggy friends on my daily walks to the park, as well as keeping up my acquaintance with old comrades such as Sasha, the frisbee-catching canine. Sasha thinks she’s a star performer: just quietly, she told me she loves an audience.
And well she might, for I also admit to liking to be the centre of attention ( as I so often am, doubtless due to my irresistible good looks and delightful manners). I am, however, very choosy as to who I’ll allow to pat my gorgeous head, and Mummy dutifully adheres to my strict instructions on this matter. She knows just who’s in charge…
So now, I’ll bid you all adieu (that’s French, not Maltese, by the way). Until next time…
Love from Chicki Rose Sharp xxx

Veronica’s Review of ‘Love, Desire and Betrayal’
7 OctA big ‘Thank you’ to Veronica for her 5 star review of ‘Love, Desire and Betrayal’.
In part, she writes:
‘Margaret Lynette Sharp’s writing is poetic and descriptive. The stories realistically depicted the heady feeling of falling in love and how circumstances and distance can put a strain on a relationship.’

This title is currently available on Amazon Kindle. I am hoping that, in the not too distant future, a paperback version will be issued.
