Important Announcement ~ Surfing in Stilettos

During my post blogging break for August,  Mr. G. and I have been making our way through Surfing in Stilettos an other fabulous novel by the hilarious author Carol E. Wyer.  If you have not  read her blog Facing 50 With Humour or heard of Carol , I highly recommend making your way over there CLICK HERE for her blog, pour yourself a cup of coffee/tea/or something a little stronger and prepare to laugh your butt off as you read post after post ... seriously!

I hope one day Carol makes her posts into a mini book ... I still find myself going back to some of her first posts and laughing despite having read them numerous times. Laughter is the best medicine for a any foul, sad mood day you may be having and Carol's creativity in writing is just what the Laughter Doctor ordered.


Personal Note: Carol's writing is not only witty it is inspirational. I have had the pleasure and honour of being friends with Carol since she became a BlogLand citizen. She is as down to earth and with a heart of gold as they come. I encourage you to not only order your own copies of her novels, but to order a copy for a friend ~ it will be a gift that will keep on giving.

Congratulations my friend on another wonderful novel. Thank you with all my heart for the inspiration you give me to follow my own writing dream. Hugs, Celia


Take an adventure in France with Amanda Wilson in Surfing in Stilettos:

Amanda Wilson is all geared up for an exciting gap-year, travelling across Europe. She soon finds her plans thwarted when she is abandoned in France with only a cellarful of Chateau Plonk, a large, orange Space Hopper, and Old Ted, the dog, for company. Fate has intervened to turn Amanda's life on its head. First the campervan breaks down. Then her dopey son, Tom, who is staying in their house in the UK, begins wrecking it, one piece at a time. The jaw-dropping video Skype calls that her irrepressible mother insists on making are, by contrast, making Amanda's humdrum trip even less palatable. Finally, she discovers that her new-found, French friend, Bibi Chevalier, had engineered a plan to ensure that her philandering husband would never stray again; unfortunately, Amanda is unwittingly drawn into the scheme, becoming a target. Meanwhile, on a beach in Sydney, a lonely Todd Bradshaw realises that his first true love, Amanda Wilson, is definitely the only woman for him. Can he get back into her good books and hopefully back into her arms with his latest plan? Or will fate intervene yet again and turn everyone's lives upside down?

Carol's debut novel ~ Mini Skirts and Laughter Lines, meet Amanda Wilson.  

Amanda Wilson can't decide between murder, insanity and another glass of red wine. Facing 50 and all that it entails is problematic enough. What's the point in minking your eyes, when your husband would rather watch 'Russia Today' than admire you, strutting in front of the television in only thigh boots and a thong? Her son has managed to perform yet another magical disappearing act. Could he actually be buried under the mountain of festering washing which is strewn on his bedroom floor? He'll certainly be buried somewhere when she next gets her hands on him. At least her mother knows how to enjoy herself. She's partying her twilight years away in Cyprus. Queen of the Twister mat, she now has a toy boy in tow. She really shouldn't have pressed that send button. The past always catches up with you sooner or later. Still, her colourful past is a welcome relief to her monochrome present; especially when it comes in the shape of provocative Todd Bradshaw, her first true love. Soon Mandy has a difficult decision to make; one that will require more than a few glasses of Chianti.
