The Stories So Far : Brighton Rocks Books--Summer Reading Challenge
http://janemcloughlinwriter.blogspot.com/2015/07/brighton-rocks-books-summer-reading.html
The Stories So Far. A blog by children's writer Jane McLoughlin. Sunday, 5 July 2015. Brighton Rocks Books- Summer Reading Challenge. Le Select, Blvd Montparnasse, Paris, NOT Sky High Fish Bar, Portland Road, Hove. I was walking along a street in Hove one night when I bumped into a group of four up-and-coming children's writers, who all live in the neighbourhood. This both delighted and surprised me, because Portland Road, Hove, isn't (believe it or not) Boulevard Montparnasse or the Champs Elysees.

At Yellow Lake and Other Places: Happy Brave New Year
http://janemcloughlin.blogspot.com/2013/12/happy-brave-new-year.html
At Yellow Lake and Other Places. A blog by children's writer Jane McLoughlin. At Yellow Lake Reviews. Tuesday, 31 December 2013. Happy Brave New Year. It's been a quiet time on the blog, what preparations for the holidays, trying to forge ahead with a new work-in-progress, and batting away the agents of creative despair and self-doubt that have been winging their way to me with alarming regularity. But on the outside, I'll be all "Yes, of course! And no one will know that my "inner marshmallow" is quiver...

The Stories So Far : Writing Scared
http://janemcloughlinwriter.blogspot.com/2015/07/writing-scared.html
The Stories So Far. A blog by children's writer Jane McLoughlin. Saturday, 18 July 2015. Why a ghost story? I hear you ask, but The Crowham Martyrs. Didn't start out as a ghost story. As is usual for me, the book started with a character- a girl who is "dumped" by her mother at a rundown boarding school, The gothic setting- an isolated school, the surrounding forest, a quaint-but-sinister local village- were also in at the beginning, and lent themselves to a story that would be supernatural and scary.

The Stories So Far : #TGFW--Thank God For Writing
http://janemcloughlinwriter.blogspot.com/2014/09/tgfw-thank-god-for-writing.html
The Stories So Far. A blog by children's writer Jane McLoughlin. Tuesday, 30 September 2014. TGFW- Thank God For Writing. A few months back, the lovely Vanessa Harbour. And I were sharing some thoughts on Twitter, and came up (simultaneously, as I recall) with the phrase "Thank God For Writing". We are still waiting for the hashtag #tgfw to become as well known as #tgif or even #amwriting! However, my take on TGFW is different. To put it simply, writing takes me to another place. Here's a true story.
