Just like most
writers, writing has been my passion for as long as I can remember. From short
stories as a child to songs performed in school plays. One way or another I’ve
always written.
However, my tale
is not one of an overnight success but rather one of a slow burner! It wasn’t
until I was a 25 years old and in the very early stages of pregnancy that I
decided I might be good enough at writing to finally give into the little voice
in my head, the one that had been telling me for years to put the book that I’d
been mentally drafting, down on paper. I was a third of the way through when,
unfortunately, life decided it had other ideas. Very much out of the blue and
barely a few weeks after giving birth, I found myself facing the road ahead as
a single mum and in the process of getting divorced. Needless to say, I didn’t
write again for years.
Thankfully, after
turning my life around and spurred on by my family and young son, I finally put
pen to paper again and ‘Dispatches from the dating zone’ was born.
I’d love to say that when I’m not writing, I’m
living the glamorous and over-the-top life of a W.A.G here in Cheshire…but in reality I’m pretty much your average
36 year old, one with too many wobbly bits and a penchant for white wine and
chocolate.
Book
Blurb
Having exhausted all the conventional ways to meet her ‘Mr
Right’ (and because now she really is a little bit desperate), Fleur Summers turns
to her well-meaning, but eccentric friends and family for help.
From ‘Man Mountain’; an engineer who eats everything in sight
and tall dark handsome Tom with big hands but no idea how to use them, to the
mysterious and brooding Henry Austin. Follow the trials and tribulations of
Fleur’s journey as she works her way through a number of eventful blind dates,
all in the name of finding true love.
Dispatches from the
Dating Zone is the racy romantic
comedy debut novel from KT Valentine
