Choc Lit author, revamped version of Hawaiian Affair just out, under Choc Lit banner, renamed 'Take a Chance on Me!' - never mix business and pleasure... It's steamy, and has 'Hot Choc Lit' logo.Prequel, Hawaiian Escape, and sequel, Hawaiian Retreat - the third in trilogy - also optioned.All three have got over 130 5* reviews. November 2014 - Hawaiian Affair was awarded the accolade of a coveted BRAG medallion for excellence in self-publishing (only one in ten books qualify.)BIOGRAPHYCurrently a QVC UK presenter, Debbie has been in TV most of her life, including standing in for Phillip Schofield as the first girl in the Children's BBC TV broom cupboard. Many other TV roles ensued, including hosting her own BBC Daytime game show 'Meet the Challenge', and sharing a sofa with Eamon Holmes in the early days of daytime TV on 'Open Air.' Children, labradors, running her own business and divorce all followed, and now she's proudly presenting once more on QVC the Shopping Channel in the UK. Writing has always been her passion, and following many courses, conferences and curses, she self-published her first titles early 2013.HAWAIIAN PRIZE TRILOGYDebbie says -I'm very proud of having written and indie-published my first four romantic novels - the first was 'Hawaiian Affair', (June 2013), available now as revamped 'Take a Chance on Me' from Choc Lit. But be warned, it's steamy! Previously available in non-steamy version, now retired.'Hawaiian Escape' (Nov 2013) is actually the PREQUEL and was originally only available in the racy-not-raunchy PG version, (eBook or paperback). But due to demand, I just had to create a separate short story - 'Hawaiian Extra - Helen & Allesandro in Tuscany', which is Hawaiian Escape chapter 20, filling in the details on the big bedroom scene....As a result the steamy version of Hawaiian Escape is also now available - setting up the sisters Helen and Sadie. Sadie's story continues in Hawaiian Affair. End June 2014, book 3 in the Hawaiian Trilogy came out too. 'Hawaiian Retreat' is Helen's Story, and follows what happens after she leaves Tuscany to set off around the world for her Try it For the First Time club. What she doesn't predict is the mystery man - a blast from the past or the ruination of her future?ALSO -DIARY OF A WANNABE SHOPPING CHANNEL PRESENTERFiction - stand alone rom com, written in journal format, the tale of a twenty-something who wants to be a TV host and enters a 'search for a Selly Telly Star' competition at her Ann's favourite (fictional!) shopping channel! Not based at all on the shenanigans I have encountered in my twenty years of shopping telly - that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Bridget Jones meets Alan Partridge meets Eddie Murphy in Holy Man... Came out April 2014.SHORT STORIES"When Dreams Return" - March 2014 - a spooky romantic suspense - when Chelle's pal Sara gets her to try a 'conjure up an ideal man' spell one full moon, the goings on in her renovated Victorian detached take a twist - will you guess it?(18000 words)"The Valentine's Surprise", Based on an original written for QVC viewers, you're never too old to find your Sir Galahad. (10000 words) "Battle of the Exes - inside 'Roses are Red trilogy. Short novella"NON-FICTIONMy semi-autobiographical weight loss book is 'Till the Fat Lady Slims 2.0 - the 'When' Diet' (2014)- now available on both eBook and paperback on Amazon. It's a self-help book based on 'freedom eating' - about body-signals and freedom of choice. It helped me lose 35lb pre 2002 when I wrote the original shorter version, and it's got a lot about my own journey in it. Give it a go if you fancy. Actually, opt for eBook then you can always get a refund if it's not your cup of black tea! (join our facebook group meanwhile - Till the Fat Lady Slims group and page.)FINALLY Finally, there's always my only paid commission (so far) - good old 'Clive the Camel' - a very short kids' story, broadcast by Buena Vista (Disney)on their 'Rise and Shine' breakfast show from the early 90's. Considering the file was written about eight computers ago, finding it would be a tall order, so 'll consign that one to the history books...!LONGER TERM - A spin off from the Hawaiian Trilogy, 'The How to Find a Husband Manual' involves Kate, Helen's New York friend, and a time-slip plot, partly current day, party 1930's - and researching it is fun!KEEP IN TOUCHWould love to connect with you and if you've read any of my titles so far, do let me know what you think!
