Fancy a breakaway? Are you dreading the storm, turn the lights out, surround yourself with candles and pop into Poppy's world, if you thought you were an arse when presented with the opposite sex, think again!

Palm D'or Favourite- Cannes 2013 - Sexy Fun

Who knew when I wrote "When Life Goes Pop" I would actually get it proof-read and uploaded before Cannes 2013 happened. This was merely lucky timing, now I'm inclined to say it was a stroke of PR genius! Interesting happenings down on the southern coastline!

Cannes Film Festival 2013 - The Great Gatsby

Not only a familiar theme with my new book, how fortuitous this lovely festival is here!
Isn't one of Poppy's settings in the South of France very Gatsby-esque? Download and read more if you like the world of glamour, glitz and darlings but know you're an utter klutz under it all!
"When Life Goes POP!" might have a chapter or two set here;)

The Cannes Film Festival is now afoot and there is lots of interesting films this year.
One of my favourite Authors "F.Scott Fitzgerald" "The Great Gatsby"
"DeCaprio" "Mulligan" "Maguire" a brilliant book and now a new adaptation... YIPEE!
The age of Decadence writer proceeds all time!

Heading to Cannes, don’t forget to pack WHEN LIFE GOES POP!

Saturday, 11 May 2013

From boring, everyday existence Poppy arrives in Cannes, the most glamorous film festival in the world. 
And you can join her.
And you don't even have to pay for an air-ticket. 
Go on, click that button, treat yourself, you know you deserve it.


And if you need further encouragement, how about a free snippet.

We arrive at the peripheries of the star-studded gathering. Both of us have fixated grins, the type only ever seen in The Stepford Wives. Yes, we’re that bad. For some reason Paige continues to talk like a ventriloquist.
‘Don’t glower, just be nonchalant.’
I look at her in disbelief; a bubbling desire to giggle has started in my stomach. I cough inadvertently and make the strangest noise. It’s no good, my bodily functions are overrun with giggles.
‘What the hell?’ Paige looks at me with annoyance, her face still suffering from degenerate rigor mortis.
‘Frog … in throat!’ I can’t catch my breath.
COUGH … COUGH … Splutter … panicked gulps. COUGH … COUGH.
My eyes and nose start streaming, my make-up starts to run. Oh shit!
THUD!
The shock of a hand hitting the middle of my back stops my coughing fit.
What the ...?
I look at Paige and she is staring at me in horror. I dab my eyes with my fingers and turn around. The hand is attached to a man who, in my estimation, in my three-inch heels, must be six foot two or three. I can’t see or read his expression, too much beardy hair in the way.
‘Better?’
‘Thanks, you could have dislodged an elephant’s tusk with that slap!’
He gives me the once-over and just raises his eyebrows and says nothing.
I stare at him, feeling somewhat irritated and exhilarated at the same time. 

Inside Llewyn Davis to premiere at the Cannes film festival 2013

Just seen the trailer for the Coen brothers next film. It looks brilliant. 


I'm a huge fan of the Coen brothers, Burn after Reading, True Grit, No Country for Old Men, they can do no wrong. Inside Llewyn Davis stars the talented Carey Mulligan, Justin Trousersnake, John Goodman, Garrett Hedlund and Oscar Issac. Didn't recognise Oscar Issac who plays Llewyn Davis at first so just had to do a little background search and then realised he played the adorable security guard in, W.E  who romances Abby Cornish's character. Their relationship was my favourite thing in the movie. 


What's not to like.
