Profile Information

Who I am:
Petra Kidd is an author who lives in Norfolk UK.
I e-published The Eight of Swords on New Year's Day as I thought it would be a good way to start 2012! It's a short story and I've just written a sequel to it which will be published this month.

In between writing short stories I am rewriting my novel which has the working title Fish.

I also run a small business and am in a great group called NorRaceChicks where we run, walk and socialise together and take part in various challenges to raise money for charity and just to have fun.

An introduction to my e-book The Eight of Swords

Posted on February 6, 2012 at 9:53am 0 Comments

I wrote The Eight of Swords towards the end of last year.  It was a story burning a hole in my head from the very moment I had the idea.  I'm not a patient soul so despite the fact I'm supposed to be rewriting a novel I wrote years ago, I started on the short story idea as soon as I had some spare time. 

It turned out well, so I decided to give it a go as an e-book and published it via Amazon…

Did you hire (any of you who are reading this) an editor, have folks critique for you, etc, before deciding your work was ready for epublishing? 

I'm a recent addition to She Writes, too. Keep me in mind as you find good stuff on the site!
