The Funeral Flower extras

The Rings

All authors have a thing that they do when they write: use a special mug or pen, listen to a special playlist or go to a specific location. I wear rings. With each novel that I write I search for rings that have something to do with the story and inspire me. I wear them throughout the process of writing and editing and then they get retired onto a ring frame that hangs on my wall just beyond my desk.

For The Funeral Flower I wore two rings, They were both of a carnation, one realistic, and the other cameo style (simply because I love cameos). What do these have to do with the novel? Read it and find out!

I love to promote the shops, mostly Etsy, that I purchased each ring from. As with many small businesses sometimes the Etsy shop links may lead to a shop that has been closed down or on a break.
