Introducing Lucy Lovecake

When the contract for French Fancy arrived, I read it ten times, in disbelief.

Contract to Publish

Hereinafter ‘The Author”.

My proudest moment.

I started the Lucy Lovecake blog the weekend after I signed the contract.

What’s she like, this Lucy Lovecake? Why does she have so much advice on dating and all these recipes? Has she had success in this area? What age is she? How does she know this stuff? She could sound oddly bossy if I don’t get the tone just right.

I didn’t want her to be a wiser, older lady figure because she had to speak to girls the age of Kitty and I, as well as a little younger and a bit older than us. She couldn’t be like one of those overly prim ladies who endeavours to turn “ladettes to ladies”, but at the same time she should have a feminine, genteel quality because this book was about turning away from casual sex and turning towards romance.

She had to have experience of dating – and how best to get that across? I concluded that she would be most effective as an “agony niece” figure. I also thought it would make a nice little format for a blog, that it would open with a problem “letter” and move onto her suggested solutions, and general tips on that theme.

In her blogs, she could be a little more daring than she was in the book.
