About Me

Author and sometimes foodie, Belinda is a ridiculous romantic who met her husband after being introduced by a friend two states away.

Residing in country Victoria, surrounded by books, cat-fur, and half-eaten cake, Belinda divides her days between writing rom-coms, baking, and indulging her love of comic books.

Belinda holds a Diploma of Professional Writing and Editing from Federation TAFE. She'll finish her degree one day.

One Week ’til Christmas // Ten Things You May Not Know

1. This book started life as fan fiction. Yep. Fan fiction. I’ll post it on here for you all to laugh at one day. 2. It was originally about 2300 words long, which I expanded to a 20,000 word novella and accompanying screenplay, which I self-published in 2017. 3. The original book was an homage […]

Special shout-out to my writing buddy @hannahplusbooks for all the times we've broken schedules, slept in, forgot, and disappeared into the ether when we should have been buddy writing. ⠀

Still, A Recipe for Disaster wouldn't exist without her - she encouraged me to submit my synopsis and stood over my shoulder and squeezed the first few chapters out of me. So, if you hate my books - blame her! 😂

I really love this paragraph from my #WIP. No idea if it'll make it to the final cut, but it reminds me of high school, @harmryel and sitting around worrying about nothing other than watching movies.

So, I'm quite boring when it comes to notebooks. I've found my $4 Kmart, brown, faux-leather notebook and I'm sticking to it (they better not delete that line). And because I love them, I want to keep them safe when I carry them around.... enter this gorgeous blue leather notebook holder by @helenmclean. It's soft but tough, gentle but sturdy when I need to scribble something down on the go.

It's a little remiss, I think, to point to a celebrity as my hero when I've got the perfect person at home with me every day. I get anxious, a lot, but my husband is so bloody calm that it balances out my insanity. He's pretty amazing. Also, I really love taking holidays with him so we can do all the cool shit, like Le Mans.

I feel like I've regurgitated this story about a thousand times this month, but #JurassicPark has and will probably always be my favourite book (and movie). Mostly because I saw the paperback on the shelves of a shop and thought how amazing it would be to have my name on the cover of a book in a bookstore. ⠀

I think this falls under unpopular opinion time, but my not-so-guilty pleasure is Royal Biographies. In fact, I can't work out why I haven't written a royal romance yet. I'm not here to get into their place in the Australian political system, I simply love the pomp and ceremony, and did I mention the architecture of the palaces? Don't mind a bit of healthy gossip, either. ⠀

Come to think of it, maybe I should blog about this topic.
