It is time... 365 days stretch before us. What dre It is time... 365 days stretch before us. What dreams to be realised this year? What new aspirations to bring to life? What new friends to make, love to share, and connections to develop? Start gently. Go slowly. Breathe. And know that the snowdrops, announcing the arrival of spring, are just around the corner. I wish you a wonderful month, here's to twelve more months together. Samantha xx

The last sunrise of 2025. What a year this has be The last sunrise of 2025. What a year this has been. I am truly blessed to have so many amazing people not only in my life, but in my corner. Publishing The Magic of Mister Mishkins was a definite high, as was befriending so many indie authors. The new wave of publishing is coming, and I am excited to be a small part of it. Cooking took a backseat as I worked through a still undiagnosed illness, but I will be back on stage next year - and I have a lot to share with you! Above all, I am grateful to have made it to the eve of a special new year, with my loved ones around me and hope in my heart. Thank you all for being part of my 2025 story, let's see what 2026 brings for us all, with hope, joy and a sprinkle of magic. Samantha xxx
