Where there's smoke...

In my post about smoking back in February, I mentioned a friend in Ireland who was giving up.

Well, it's now June and she's still not smoking! I'm really proud of her because she has had a very difficult few months.

Did you notice the title of this post? Crafty of me - it's the name of a novel she has written and is currently with Penguin for consideration (they asked for the whole manuscript after seeing a few chapters).

So let's hope that where there's interest, they end up publishing. It would be a nice (to say the least!) bonus for her and a superb reward for her giving up smoking.

Incidentally she wrote a short story a couple of years back called 'Wicked Weed' and it won a competition in Belfast. Got published and read on the radio. It was about someone who gave up smoking!
