T-L Spencer: Dreaming, Writing, Reading

Say hello to Sapphire (Sapphi for short) the newest addition to the household. She is ten weeks old and is a Labrador/Husky/Rottweiler cross. All dog lovers will now be sat staring at their screens thinking, 'Are you crazy?' The answer is a resounding yes! But hey, crazy is always good. You can't own two cats and a puppy and be sane; it would drive you bonkers. So, how has it been? It's been fun! Everything has been puppy proofed, the conservatory looks like a nursery and on a personal note, I think a puppy will do wonders for my figure! I hardly get a chance to eat, I'm so busy! With Sapphi and the munchkins, Bella and Donna, I'm sure me and my parents will have our hands full! I'll keep you up to date! Chow x

  This is a brilliant read.   Though a fan of Bones , the television series based on the  Tempe Brennan novels, I have never read any of the books. Crime/Detective stories are not my favourite genre. But when I saw this book, I just had to read it. More science-fiction than crime, Virals is a gripping and action packed read.   Tory Brennan (niece of Tempe Brennan) lives on an isolated island and at the age of fourteen, it's pretty boring... until she and her friends rescue a puppy from a lab... And then everything changes.   Pick this up and I can personally assure you that you will not put it down until you've finished!   Happy Reading x

Hello gang! As you can see, I've added a new page to my blog. This is a children's short story. It's kind of Sherlock Holmes as a cat. Anyway, it's my first try at writing for kids so if you have any comments, I'd love to hear from you!

Yes, I know. Everyone has their own unique taste in films and I'm completely insane; you are probably reading this and thinking, her film choices will be really bizarre. But what the hell. I'll share mine anyway. These are my favourite films; the movies I watch (or in one or two cases have been back to watch) when I'm stressed or tired or... or just bored. If you haven't seen some of these films, this post contains SPOILERS. Ten: Yes, yes, yes, I know. Most normal people despise the films but at number ten is my guilty pleasure: Breaking Dawn Pt 2. Directed by Bill Condon, I have to say, despite the gigantic plot holes and weird (verging on disturbing) family relationships, this film just has something. The 'fight-which-isn't-a-fight' was so good it had me at the edge of my seat (mostly because I was mad that they killed off one of my favourite characters) and several of the red eyed vampires  - Garrett and Benjamin -  were fabulous. Yes, the acting wa...

Hey everyone! With Blood Prophecy published, I did some interviews. Check them out! http://childrensandteensbookconnection.wordpress.com/2013/01/09/interview-with-tl-spencer-author-of-blood-prophecy-the-fated-three/ and http://patbertram.wordpress.com/2012/12/21/tl-spencer-author-of-blood-prophecy-the-fated-three/ Enjoy!

Here is a sneakpeak at the history of my world for my work in progress Witch Dark ... For millennia, mortals and paranormal beings lived in harmony. They lived, loved, fought and died together; everything was perfect. Until the darkness spread. It is well known that witches are the most common type of paranormal being. Their ability to manipulate matter, emotions and control elements make them deadly opponents in battle and also one of the greatest healers within the supernatural community. Their reputation is firmly set. But rewind time to over five hundred years ago and a witch’s reputation, especially with mortals, wasn’t what it is today. In fact, witches were on the brink of war.

Happy New year everyone, and may this new year bring all the good luck and fortune that you wish for.  And of course, it wouldn't be a New year without a resolution! And mine is to start a new book. So I am determined to begin my new project this week. Witches, mortals and hunters, oh my! This next project sees the town of Witch- Haven, the home of the paranormal plunged into a New and terrible darkness. Friends and enemies must band together to protect their own as years of unrest and war arise around the once sleepy little town... What are your resolutions? Do you even make them?
