    Is writer's block real? Is a headache real (even though some people don't get them?) As a scientist, Julia Roberts can attest, it's real, painful, and robs the world of some of the best ideas and insights by sidetracking amazing writers! Roberts shares a deep knowledge base of creativity and the creative thinking process that can help you predict and prevent your own slide into procrastination and block - so you can finish the things you envision. The book is filled with scientifically tested tools and "Try It" worksheets about how, why, and when you write well (and why, sometimes, not so much.)Writers gain confidence and creativity in their writing work using the scientific tools Julia Roberts illustrates in this book. Roberts taps into the surprising science of creativity and her coach training to give the reader grounded, proven, easy-to-use methods to gain: · Clarity· Ideas· Structure· FinishAs Roberts says, "Writers are the Best Weirdos" and she's here for them - empathetic, insightful, supportive, and humorous as she shares her personal and clients' experience with writing and publishing to help lighten yours. The creative thinking process is universal, but creative thinkers are far from identical. We each have our own strengths to deploy and struggles to overcome. We each need different prescriptions to smooth our own creative process. Take a moment to think: Where does the work come easily to you? Where do you struggle? Where do you gain energy? Where do you lose energy (and just want to quit?!)Julia Roberts has a Masters in the Science of Creativity, is certified as a life coach and creativity coach. She's on a mission to help writers glide past those awkward, shameful, painful moments that can stop your writing in its tracks. She can help you stare down doubt, dread, and delay, and write with more ease and satisfaction. Roberts is also the author of Amazon bestseller, Sex, Lies & Creativity - Gender Differences in Creative Thinking, (Difference Press, 2014) and is performing a TEDx Salon talk: "It's Not Just Mojo, The Surprising Science of Creativity" in 2022.

    I was so sure I saw Sophie on the beach that day. But it couldn't be her. Sophie's dead... Ever since we locked fingers and swore to be best friends at school, Sophie was there for me. When she married my brother, I followed her down the aisle as her bridesmaid, thrilled that we were becoming family. We laughed together and cried together. We shared everything. At least I thought we did. And then she was gone. The terrible accident that took her life devastated me, and though everyone else has moved on, I can't. She was so quiet, those last few months. I keep thinking there is something I don't know... Now I'm standing on the beach we visited when we were younger and there's a woman with long blond hair a few metres away, playing with a dog in the sunshine. She turns, and I see Sophie. Heart racing, I struggle to my feet, but before I can reach her she's vanished, leaving only footprints in the sand. It can't be Sophie... Can it? And do I want to know what she was running from, if the answer means I can no longer trust the people I love? A gripping emotional page-turner about the ways we lie to ourselves and how love and hope can heal us. Fans of Amanda Prowse, Liane Moriarty and Susan Lewis will absolutely love The Woman on the Beach. See what readers are saying about The Woman on the Beach: 'Emotional, amazing... Phenomenal book!...

    It's summer 1976; London is languishing in the sultry heat. Beautiful and talented nineteen-year-old, Alice Abbott, arrives in the city with high hopes of one day seeing her name up in lights but first she must impress Richard, the producer of a new West End show, Theatreland. Alice is befriended at the audition by the more experienced Gina, who, although burdened by her own dark secrets, is determined to protect the newcomer from the sleaze behind the glamour. She also attracts attention from the male lead in the show, Peter, a former pop star struggling to escape his playboy reputation. Alice's star seems to be rising as fast as the temperature until she naively accepts an impromptu dinner invitation from Richard. What happened that night? And how far will Richard go to protect his guilty secret? Fabulously wicked people who are easy to loathe, counterbalanced with an endearing heroine and friends we'd all love to have as our own. An authentic seventies setting with not one but two twists at the end.

    Holly Wilson has landed a dream job which involves her staying at five-star resorts around the world. There is however a proviso. She must travel incognito and that means telling lies. Holly hates lies. Her cover story, designed to minimise conversation on the subject, is that she is returning to her honeymoon destination for closure after her husband's sudden death. Holly has never been married but she does have a nineteen-year-old son, Harry, who she has raised single-handedly by working as a freelance copy editor after her boyfriend at university, Gareth, left to study in America, without knowing she was pregnant, and never returned. Philippe also has a secret. He is a novelist but writes under the pen name of Veronica Philips. His debut novel was a bestseller but he is not finding it so easy to write his second book. After scathing comments from his editor, following the submission of his first fifty pages, Philippe travelled to Mauritius for inspiration. Nine months later he knows the book is still sub-standard and his twelve month deadline is rapidly approaching. The only people on the island who know Philippe writes under a pseudonym are British couple Robert and Rosemary Forrester. Both in their late fifties, they are as much in love as when they first met eighteen years previously but now they share a terrible secret of their own. Holly meets the couple on her second evening in Mauritius. Rosemary is a similar age to Holly's mother but there the similarity ends. Holly has been estranged from her mother since falling pregnant with Harry and carries a terrible burden of guilt for the death of her father, which her mother blames her for. Rosemary's warmth highlights what Holly missed growing up and she hates the lies she is forced to tell her. Robert and Rosemary introduce Holly to their friend Philippe who is instantly smitten with her. She has not allowed herself to have a serious relationship since Gareth deserted her twenty years previously but she feels a connection with Philippe. What starts as a holiday romance soon develops into something more intense and they promise to meet up when he returns to the UK once he has finished writing his book, which she believes is a travelogue. Two months later an extraordinary twist of fate reveals what Philippe has been hiding from Holly. Will she be able to forgive him and will she be able to keep her promise to Rosemary?
