TB had a frantic finish to 2021, including launching A London Love Story, the Kindle Vella series cowritten with Miranda MacLeod. The series is ranking well, but not everything with the launch has gone smoothly. Speaking of difficulties, the Lizzie release was hit by a deranking issue on Amazon, killing Lizzie. TB’s break wasn’t all bad over the holidays. She was able to binge the latest season of Shetland.
Clare had a mixed December. In the beginning of the month, she bashed out a lot of words. During the lead up to Christmas, not much work got done, but she had a lovely time with her loved ones. After the holiday, her wife got COVID (she’s doing well, considering). Clare has gotten back into the writing saddle, but goodness, what a rollercoaster of a month!
In Lesbians Who Write news, the podcast was ranked number 47 out of the top LGBTQ shows in the world. Toot toot!
They crash onto the topic: What does January mean to you? They came at the question differently, which is right on par for the duo. TB did a bit of research and provides some history, which reset her mindset about January. Clare, the January evangelist, breaks down why people should be kinder to themselves at the start of the year. Have a listen to learn their opinions and why they want to be like Neil.

January, what does it mean? For me it’s the first of the two coldest months of the year. We even got below -40 already. It’s kind of a badge of honour to not only brave the chilly temps, but to get outside and enjoy yourself. January is also the month before Festival du Voyageur more fun in the cold, nothing a hot toddy can’t fix. This January brings in the year I turn 65 and the year I will get published, which has been a dream of mine for more years than I care to remember, I just never got around to writing until I retired. Love your banter, girls, it puts a smile on my face. What’s the coldest temps you have had to brave, for me, it was -58 C and still I walked the 3 Kilometres to work (badge of honour.)
We’re cheering you on and TB has walked in negative temps, but she can’t say the actual number, because numbers are her nemesis. Stay warm!
