important research
Every book needs at least a little research in order to make it as real as possible and my current Modern Heat wip THE LONG WEEKEND has been no different.
Here are some random things I’ve had fun googling thus far:
- private jets
- whiskey sour cocktails
- amanda peet
- ruffle handbags
- brunswick street cafes
- cradle mountain resorts
- karaoke
- george michael’s best of
- man satchels
- gerard butler
Googling one Gerard Butler has, naturally been the most fun. The lovely and talented Robyn Grady has kindly leant him to me for the interim. I have every intention of returning him in full working order, and hopefully with a few extra tricks up his sleeve than when I borrowed him. It’s the least I can do Robbie!

Oh Cradle Mountain?? Lovely place, we went on a spotlighting tour, very Tasmanian, you walk about and the ranger shines the spotlight on the animals for you and talks about them!! Lots come to be fed at night, but I think it is discouraged. The weather though, in the middle of Summer it can snow like nothing else!!
It is quite romantic with all the wood and stone inside the buildings, very elemental, and the roaring fires and the view over the lake.....

Lovely pic of Gerry. He's from Paisley, where my dad hailed from, not the most picturesque part of Scotland by any means! Love his accent, reminds me of family!
