Hi everyone

Well, it’s been an eventful year - not all of it great, but we’ve come through it more-or-less in one piece :). And there’s been a lot to cheer about.

I’ve completed three books (Her Wish-List Bridegroom, Nanny for Keeps and one that is, as yet, unnamed will be published next year in the UK), met a lot of you face-to-face and had some fabulous weekends in London and in Bath.

Also, as a sort of Christmas present for me , I've just been nominated by Romantic Times for a "Love & Laughter" Career Achievement Award, and my romance, A Family Of His Own, has also been nominated for Best Harlequin Romance of 2004.

Having delivered the latest book at the end of November, I’ve spent most of December gathering myself for the Christmas festivities. As part of the process, Wendy - my lovely webdesigner - posted a special Christmas card on my website for everyone I haven’t been able to reach personally, so please do take a look. The photograph was taken by my husband and it gives just a taste of the countryside around our home here in Wales.

I’ve just drawn my signed book winner for this month and the email has been sent... it could be you! (If you want to be included in the draw, all you have to do is sign up for my occasional newsletter -- just click the link on my webpage.) Ronda has won this month's book and it'll be on it's way the minute I've sorted out the pastry for the mince pies.

Thank you all for continuing to read my books and for writing to let me know what you think of them. All comments are helpful and gratefully received. With warmest wishes for the festive season and a peaceful and happy New Year to your and yours.

With love Liz
