No it’s not just you! Supermarket garlic tastes quite bland compared to the stuff I’ve cooked with while self-catering in France – though our local farm shop sometimes has decent bulbs.
Sounds a great idea to try growing it yourself.-
Definitely true. The garlic in the box I get from the organic farmer in the next village is ten times tastier than supermarket stuff.

Gosh @hilary, I am raging on your behalf too! This all sounds so demoralising, and I do admire your fortitude in picking yourself up and starting a new book. I hope you’ll focus on the fact that you had lots of requests for a full ms – even on a weekend!! – and take Raine’s advice and submit again. As you rightly say, many agents have book club…[Read more]

It does look a lovely place, and you have the best of both worlds there as it’s not too far to go to cross the Channel 🙂

Oh they all look amazing @janeshuff, which one is your home town?

Le Conquet. And the first picture shows the Blanc Sablons beach. We live just above it and I look out at the same headlands and sea every morning from the room upstairs where I write. Can’t see them today because it’s drizzly and misty!

I spent a week last year at St Just, which is the English equivalent to Le Conquet – the westernmost town in England. i loved it, and I’d guess that Le Conquet has much of the same edge-of-the-map feeling about it. What a nice place to live you have. If I weren’t so fond of my own home I’d be quite envious.

Congratulations, Jules your book looks fab – I’m looking forward to starting the series! Also, really enjoyed reading about your research, especially re the horses. It made me wonder whether you’d written a short story for the winter challenge that featured a talking horse, but maybe my imagination is running away with me…

I think you’ve explained that really well, Squidge. That ‘trying too hard’ can detract from what the writer actually wants to say, and often kills ‘voice’ too. Speaking from experience, many of the sentences I’ve laboured most over are the ones that end up being cut when I go back and edit!
