Key Writing Principles

• This gives early clarity, even if your characters choose their own paths along the way A.

2. Let characters surprise you• She plans extensively but welcomes unexpected turns—like a character’s sudden accident—because genuine surprises add depth A.

Books by MARILYN L RICE

            

Hello Everyone,

      

 Lady M here. I thought it was time to update you on all of MARILYN L. RICE'S  books.

Way back in 2001she published Time &Tide on her 50th birthday. This book is now out of print but second-hand copies are available on such places as eBay and Amazon.

                                                                    

'TIME AND TIDE' tells the story of Irene Joy Stephenson, born on January 1 1950. The Prologue sets the scene for her fiftieth birthday; chapter one goes back in time to her birth. She realizes that life is cruel at an early age when her mother attempts suicide and her brother dies on his first birthday. When she is ten the family move from a Nottinghamshire village to a country estate, owned by Lord Fordingham, where her father takes up the post of Estate Manager. She, and the gardener's son, Daniel become childhood sweethearts. They plan their future together; they both pass the 11+ examination and take up places at the local Grammar School. They are inseparable until he is killed in a car accident. She returns to school as a sixth-former, takes the 'A' level exams and then attends the local College of Education. In her final year she meets Philip White. They qualify as teachers and marry in 1972 before taking up posts in Birmingham. On her wedding night she realizes that it has all been a mistake. She does not love him but was infatuated by his similarity to Daniel. They drift apart; he has an affair with a sixth-former from his school. He and Irene divorce and he leaves the area with his pregnant girlfriend in disgrace. Irene is left devastated and alone again. Her Head of Department helps her pick up the pieces of her broken life. Their relationship develops; they marry and are happy but it is short lived. He has a tragic accident before he finds out he is to be a father. Irene returns to her parents at Fordingham and gives birth to a son who only lives for a few months. The local vicar tries to help her through the trauma. She becomes involved in the Church and eventually marries him. As the vicar's wife she feels that she has found her true vocation in life. In 1993 the Rev. Alistair Duncan finds that he cannot come to terms with female vicars. Priesthood for him is a male domain. His solution is to tell  the Bishop telling of his crisis of faith and his wish not to be found before disappearing. Irene spends the last years of the nineties just waiting for January 2000 when seven years after his desertion she will officially become a widow. She must carry on with her life in the new century because 'TIME AND TIDE' wait for no one'. Throughout the story, in the form of a diary written by Irene's mother, is a concise history of events, changes and discoveries during the second half of the twentieth century, possibly the most dynamic fifty years in our history.

No Regrets was published in 2003 and Stay in Touch in 2005. They are both available on the Internet or message her! 

                                                               

NO REGRETS

"When we meet the heroine, 30-something Joanna, she is newly divorced and trying to rebuild her life. We share her innermost thoughts, as she realises that she has to come to terms with being an available single woman for any predatory male among her neighbours and at the school where she teaches, a hotbed of professional and sexual duplicity. How she reconciles her new role in life, copes and fails to cope with the challenges, results in a diary-based novel startling in its frankness. Marilyn L Rice brings acute observation to her story which moves along at a pace, fully involving the reader. Many will identify with the agonising decisions facing professional women. This is reality in today’s world."  John Jenkins

STAY IN TOUCH

"Just what can drive a woman to murder? Or even three murders? Men. How can she become a serial killer, undetected and rich on the proceeds of her crimes? It all seems so simple for Christabelle after failed marriages to a homosexual and a bigamist. She confides only so much to her best friend as they recall their youthful wishes and dreams. If you have ever written down 50 things you intend to do before 30,40 or 50 you will understand and marvel at this black comedy.

Marilyn L Rice has written a story which races along with the pace of a thriller yet shrewdly observes the problems facing women today and a terrifying solution of how they can be overcome.

And when you have finished the book the story will stay long in your mind...whether you are a woman - or even more so if you are a man."   John Jenkins

In 2007, she launched her fourth book, Look After Each Other. It became the first in the Sofia trilogy although when she wrote it she was not sure it would work. 

The idea for this book was to interweave three things. The inspiration, came from events in her life. She once had the misfortune to meet a gentlemen whose sole aim in life was to complain and find fault. She  always had a strong relationship with her father and thirdly, had visited clairvoyants/mediums. What if? Could she work with a plot involving these three ideas and a lot of 'what if's?  It worked!

"Sofia Haslington is a 36-year-old mother and housewife kept under the thumb of her priggish, anal-retentive husband, Derek. Living by a second-to-second timetable and under strict rules enforced by her husband, Sofia decides to visit a well-respected clairvoyant, hoping for a bit of respite from her otherwise dreary existence. But what she is surprised to learn that day not only changes her life...it changes her. "

                                                               

(The hardback cover)

 SOFIA'S LEGACY

"This book answers the question," Is there 'life' after death?" Sofia has died, but come back from "upstairs" to watch her funeral. What a revelation! To be able to see and hear what people were saying about her now that she was dead and they had no idea she could see and hear them. And Derek? Well, if ever there was a hypocrite it's Derek. Her father, Scott was with her and while Derek was, trying to be the centre of attention, reading a passage from 1 Corinthians at the crematorium, Scott blew smoke rings in his face. He tried to shout above the smoke rings. It was hilarious..."

And, completing the trilogy,  book SIX, 

LOVE YOU FOREVER

Five years have passed. It is 2010. The reader sees how dramatic and unimaginable events have changed the lives of everyone Sofia left behind at Haslington Towers. Even more surprising events occur that lead to devastating consequences. You really will have to read it! I am not going to give anything else away!
But to quote from the blurb,
 "This stunning book series delves into karma, the afterlife, and more things in heaven and earth than you have ever dreamed!"

                                                  

All the trilogy are available from the publisher’s website:  http://sbprabooks.com/MarilynLRice  

Amazon, online retailers or paperback copies from the author. Just email for signed copies to marilynlrice@talktalk.net

The first two are in eBook format and the final book will be soon.

LIFE IS...

Published as a result of postings on Facebook! I think that answers a popular question of where do authors get their inspiration from!

                                                        

The Blurb

"I like most people on the planet, have become a great fan of social media and in particular, Facebook. During the last six months I have been posting daily. Firstly, it was 'Words of Wisdom' and then I moved on to 'Life is…' Some of my thoughts were philosophical, others humorous. Sometimes I added photographs and emojis or I dedicated certain sayings to individual people. On a couple of occasions I even added a short story telling the inspiration behind the quotation, for example…'Life is about turning left instead of right and having an adventure!'
I noticed that I was getting a lot of those 'like' clicks and friends seemed to be enjoying my humble daily offering. I had an idea… put all of my posts into a short book and publish them. I have placed one of the 'Words of Wisdom' on each page and the' Life is…' quotations follow with some illustrations, either photographs from my albums or downloads from the Net under creative commons licence. All the acknowledgements may be found at the end of the booklet after information on my books.
I hope that those of you who download this will delve into it on the dark days and find that it puts the smile back on your face.
How would I describe it? Humorous, philosophical, satirical, stimulating, inspirational, illuminating, intriguing, thought-provoking, fresh, invigorating and delightful.
Enjoy!"

 THE SINGING HORSES

                                               

                                 

                                      

"The uproarious saga of the singing horses begins when they leave the paddock in Alabama and travel to Memphis for votes because they all want to win The Best Equine Author of the Year contest. Although they’re competing to win, they work together in the entertainment industry as the famous singing horses’ troupe. They are widely known for their escapades throughout the United States and Europe, causing mayhem wherever they go. Each horse has a number and a special talent, such as #00, the dancing queen, #23, a ballerina and filly friend of #7 who is related to the racing legend, Red Rum. They ride on the Orient Express to Venice, where they face the paparazzi who chase them, so they go into hiding. The paparazzi put up a €10,000 reward for information on them. A McDoodles employee takes a photo of #7 eating chips and sends it to the paparazzi, forcing them to gallop away again. They flee to Moscow, on to Athens and then to the donkey sanctuary in Cyprus, all the while performing and neighing for votes. During the long wait for the announcement of the final ten authors, they travel to New Orleans, where they enjoy numerous cocktails and much merriment. Ultimately, the announcement of the winner is a big surprise to everyone but the judges! The remaining contestants refuse to leave their lovely paddock and stage a neigh-in. Bulldozers and diggers arrive to destroy the paddock, but the paparazzi stand in protest with the equine."

The Singing Horses is a delightful story full of hilarious adventures to delight readers of all ages."   Out of print but copies still available from the author. Please leave a message.

                                                                        

THE SAD LITTLE FOAL

                                                                 

This story was written not by a human but a small orphan foal, #7, who has little legs, is only eight hands high, and loves chips. We think it is based on his life with fantasy as are most stories.

He was delighted when Mr. J. invited him to ‘The Paddock’ to take part in a contest for a much coveted prize - a publishing contract and the title, “Best Equine Author of the Year”. The story of that contest is THE SINGING HORSES. #7’s foal story, THE SAD LITTLE FOAL, caused the website to crash as every human and equine wanted to read his manuscript. Now it is published all may read it. It is about a foal meeting his mama for the first time, falling asleep by her side. When he wakes his mama has gone. He is very sad and waits for her to return. Alas, she is in equine heaven. This little foal waits for his papa to come and teach him all the little foal things he needs to know. He’s surprised to discover his papa is a celebrity… In this book, THE SAD LITTLE FOAL  you may read information regarding the author, an introduction about the story before you read it, the foal story, two chapters from THE SINGING HORSES, extra information about the special equine language and etiquette. Finally, and naturally information about the author’s other books. Enjoy.

Helping the BHF

 

My friends, I’m sure you will all remember those dark days of lockdown through Covid and before the vaccine. I posted my Covid Chronicles most days highlighting both the global situation and events. I added my personal situation and spoke of the need to stay positive to survive while showing compassion and consideration for those who lost loved ones. I shared memories with you all because they are important; the one thing we can never lose. Many of you read my scribing hopefully through interest or maybe boredom. Some contributed comments and suggested publication. I am happy to tell you that the document has been accepted by the world premier British Library as an electronic donation. They will be available for future generations who wish to research Covid .decided to look for an archive for them as a primary history source for future generations. Consequently, they have been edited accordingly with comments removed. I am offering them in Word doc to anyone who would like them either as a reminder or to pass on to descendants . They are free but I thought it would be nice to help a charity. I have set up a page for donations to the BHF if you would like to make a contribution but is not obligatory. https://gofund.me/bb77af67 If you would like a copy please leave a message in the comments.

On Your Own Doorstep--- The Library of Birmingham

The Library of Birmingham



       Originally posted on 17/7/2015. Wow! 9 years ago but it’s on my doorstep. I haven’t been for awhile due to Covid and the fact that our trams have not been operating a service to the Library. Summer is coming and time to go out and explore if public services are not on strike! During Covid everyone wanted to work but now they do not. What a strange world. I posted this a couple of years ago and am now giving it a third airing. Look around you and find exciting places to visit on your doorstep.

Howde Folks,

Yes Sofia here, Lady M has summoned me back for one week only to tell you all about her visit to the new Library of Birmingham. At Christmas a friend enlightened her regarding the use of the concessionary bus pass for Senior Citizens. She had never bothered to collect one because buses are not as convenient as her little car BUT she discovered that the bus pass can be used on the Metro and trains in the Central Network area. So, she applied for hers and last week managed to find the tram and had a free ride into Birmingham. She returned on a 129 bus which took the scenic tour round Warley and about an hour to get back to West Bromwich. Since then she has been boasting that she no longer has a virgin bus pass! Really!

The second city, Birmingham is on her own doorstep. It's only five miles down the road but it now costs a fortune to park the car which is why she stopped going into town. However, this new library was a good reason to venture into the city. What did she see? Take a look at the pics below.

Burns Night

Hello Everyone,


Today is 25th January and an important day for celebrating in Scotland regardless of the weather. It is Burns Night. Robert Burns, the Scots poet, (it is Scot and not Scotch as one of my friends once said, she was a person not a glass of whisky!) was born on 25th January 1759. Scots all over the world celebrate his birthday with music, dancing, haggis and whisky.

Robert Burns was born at Alloway, a village in Ayrshire. His father was a farmer, honest, intelligent and God fearing. He wanted the best education for his sons and coerced some of his neighbours to join him in engaging a Mr Murdoch, a teacher from Ayr to come and teach the boys in a hired room in Alloway; this lasted for two years. Later in 1772, Robert attended Dalrymple parish school to improve his writing. In 1773 he spent some time with Mr Murdoch in to revise his English grammar and study French. However, in between his education he worked on the farm with his father and at 15 had become his father's chief labourer but he would always have a book with him and when possible would read a few verses of poetry.

Mr Burns, senior died when Robert was 25. Robert, with his brothers and sisters moved to another farm at Mauchline. He found friendship with many of the educated men in the area and discovered that writing poetry was his niche in life. He was never going to be a successful farmer. He published his first book of poems in 1786; it was a huge success earning him £20! The ploughman became famous as a poet.

In 1788 he married his long term girlfriend, Jean Armour. He then moved to take up a position as an excise officer in Dumfries which involved the collection of duty on spirits and beer. He enjoyed his new life style and the opportunities it offered. Weakened by drink and dissipation, he contracted a fever and died at the age of 37 (1796).

So, to all Scots everywhere... Happy Burns Night!

Lady M.

On Your Own Doorstep... Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery

                                        

Hello everyone!

Yes, I am still in the archives and originally posted this in 2016. The Museum has been closed since Covid lockdown days and undergoing renovation. So, there are new and different things to see now it’s reopened. I have not been yet but will visit soon. Birmingham is an exciting place to be at the moment. I watched the opening of the Commonwealth Games last week and felt so proud as I watched Birmingham and the Black Country’s history. Then there was the massive bull, the stewards in Peaky Blinders attire. We have so much for visitors in the heart of the Midlands. Lots to see and do. Have fun.

                                          ***********************

June 2016

Lady M here and looking out of her study at beautiful trees in full leaf. It is June and summer is on the way. It is the time of the year when the days are long, the nights short and hopefully that glorious thing called sunshine will brighten our days. Well, we live in hopes! These are the days when going out is a pleasure and for the next few weeks I am taking the "on your own doorstep" theme. It is so easy to travel the world yet miss what is only down the road.

 

The Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery is five miles away from me in Chamberlain Square, Birmingham. Just round the corner from the Council House and Victoria Square. For me, it was easy and free to travel there using my concessionary travel pass into the city, but if you haven't reached your senior years admission is free anyway.

 

Once inside a new world opens up... room after room of excitement and joy in the form of glorious, exquisite paintings plus artefacts from numerous cultures... Egyptians, Ancient Greeks, Romans and Ancient Americas. Then there is the Sultanganj Buddha, the largest surviving metal Buddha from Ancient India and over 1,000 years old; this was one of the first objects to enter Birmingham's collection. There is a new gallery housing the impressive Staffordshire Hoard and another gallery displaying the history of Birmingham. I had a wonderful time there last September. Yes, I did spend some money on lunch in The Edwardian Tearooms but I did not succumb in the gift shop!

 

Birmingham has so much to offer. Only yards away from the museum is the beautiful cathedral on Colmore Row. Originally, a church for a small community. As the community grew, this little church became the new cathedral. I enjoyed spending half an hour there listening to the organist rendering lovely tunes. There is something special about the sound of organ music... it is soothing and relaxing.

 

Then, of course, there is the new library next to The Repertory Theatre. I visited that last year and talked about it in my previous blog. 

Okay, so you don't live near Birmingham but do you know what is available in a city or town near you whether it be Manchester, Liverpool, Amsterdam, Salzburg, New York or Canberra?


Until next week, I leave you with this thought:

Tomorrow is not promised to us so make the most of today!

Wherever you wander just remember to take a good book with you!

Love, Lady M xxxx

On Your Own Doorstep...Grand Central

Hello Everyone,


Originally posted six years ago. Wow! Time flies. I can’t believe. I am reposting it today because Birmingham is an exciting place to be right now. On Monday I watched the Commonwealth baton carried right past my house on the way to the Sandwell Valley. The baton was carried through Sandwell on Monday before Solihull on Tuesday and onto Birmingham for the start of the Commonwealth Games. Grand Central and the Library, the largest in Europe (posted last week) will be visited by numerous peeps from around the Commonwealth this week. Enjoy.
                                                   ****************************

Yes, it's arrived...August and we all know what's round the corner. I won't mention it, well just say the 'C' word and leave it to your imagination!

I'm continuing with my theme of  'On Your Own Doorstep' and last week I went into Birmingham, on the Metro, using my concessionary pass, so it was FREE. Don't you just love that word! Free travel, one of the perks of old age in the UK. The Metro now goes through Birmingham city centre stopping at Bull Street and Corporation Street before terminating at Grand Central for New Street Station.

Birmingham, approximately five miles from home, so on the doorstep, has undergone much regeneration over the last decade or so. Grand Central is the masterpiece on the site previously known as The Pallasades. What used to be a cold, uninviting concourse with central escalators leading to New Street Station is now a vibrant, lively, inviting area full of eating places and surrounded by attractive shops. It used to be a boring thoroughfare to the station. Now, it is a hive of activity with an electric atmosphere.

The Birmingham of the 'swinging sixties' has disappeared to be replaced by a twenty-first century one. I was meeting a friend for lunch and a chat. While waiting I wandered out onto the main entrance to the station and surveyed the view. It was hard to believe it was still Smallbrook Queensway. The massive concrete block opposite the station had disappeared with new modern buildings in its place. There were only two features remaining, the iconic Rotunda building and The Odeon cinema, the only red brick building in sight. I was really impressed. In fact, I am going to make a prediction! Bearing in mind that the NEC is on the outskirts of Birmingham and its location in the country my prediction is that by the next century Birmingham will have replaced London as the capital of England. London will be a tourist attraction.

I will leave you with that thought and some of my pics.

Have a great week,

On your own doorstep - Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings

                                         

The Town House 15th Century style

Hello Everyone,

Isn't the weather glorious this week in the UK? Let's enjoy it and venture forth, (if or while we can afford it!) Lady M has got a bee in her bonnet about visiting local places. This week she has found her favourite  museum in the archives. She last visited it in 2017. Covid has a lot to answer for. 

                                             ***********************************

                                                 

This week I would like to take you to the Avoncroft Museum near Bromsgrove. I have visited it a few times during the last thirty years and I remember my first visit when the shire horse, Lloyd, the one used in the banking adverts was stabled there. Since then, the museum has grown in size. Now it has a model railway and  The National Telephone Kiosk Collection as additions to its buildings. I just love the windmill, toll house, ice house and the prefab house, buildings which take you back to the past. In fact, when I first saw the prefab house in the early eighties I remember thinking that the bathroom was better than mine. Since then, I've had a new suite installed.

Anyway, on my recent trip I strolled round taking some pretty pics before enjoying lunch in the Edwardian tearooms and then wandering round the gift shop. I would like to share some of my pics with you. There is one place which always amuses me because I thought unisex conveniences were a modern thing... apparently not!
                                         

Yes, this is an 18th century convenience or earth closet where the family visited together. You learn something new every day.

The Mission church

Chimneys!

Part of the Telephone Kiosk collection

Toll prices pre M6 days!

The Toll house

So, if you would like to visit Avoncroft and view these buildings and others for yourself the website and details are www.avoncroft.org.uk  

How far is this site from my house? 18 miles. 

Until next week, have a fantabulous time

Love you all, Lady M xxxx
