In loving memory of, Hilda Swarbrick, who sadly passed away 29/4/2015

On Friday 29/4/2015 at 9pm, it saddens me to say that my nan, Hilda Swarbick, past away.

My nan was 91 years of age, a very independent woman with a heart of gold. I go on about my Grandparents a lot in my life, and I've written about them both in my books. 


Anyone who has read my books or even met my grandparents will say the same as I do! They were remarkable kind, loving, respectable people, that never had a bad word to say about anyone, but if they did it wasn't without reason to! 

I know I've had had an ear bashing in my time, but them ear bashings, their love and kindness, made me the guy I am today, they both taught me to be strong, never to give up, always except mistakes, treat others how you would want to be treated, don't be afraid of showing your love and expressing yourself, always stay strong and don't worry what others say or think about you.

Basically, just be yourself! I've learnt all them qualitys and more including compassion, and trust me they was plenty of that to be had. 

Love to Len and Hilda Swarbrick always xx

This is another little poem that I have written, it's called, Grandparents 

The kind loving souls that show us the way, fighting for our well being every day, Grandparents that we look up to with respect, always keeping us from the storms so that we don’t get wet, but that time will come when they have to go away, but no matter what, there’re shedding their light of love that still leads your way. 

We she’ll always have memories that will never leave, some will bring joys, some will leave tears... You will never stop wishing for that day they will be here, holding your hand and saying, ‘Yes my Dear?’ 

With all the sounds of true words once said, remembering the days that they did their best, wanting you to smile and the rest, as it’s now time to do your best. 

Dry those eyes and pick up your smile, that’s the reason your Grandparents made your life so worthwhile.

   
               R.I.P Hilda Swarbrick, you will be forever missed. 
                        Love to you and grandad always xx

    A heart-felt tribute to a very beautiful Lady Hilda. There is kindness and compassion written on her face. God's speed, Kevin. You have a new Guardian Angel in Heaven.

The awesome author Helle Soe Gade, being interviewed @KevinSwarbrick 'Delicously Scandalous Blog Tour'

For every one who has read my post will know I have never interviewed any authors yet, which is crazy considering I know thousands of authors, but for some time now I have been giving it some thought and like my work I wanted these interviews to be different and unique. I want them each to have their own individuality to match the author's personality who do participate. I want to do an interview that put the author's mind to the test and also to show the readers how awesome their creative minds actually are when put on the spot.. This is a little more than just an interview, with great stories and fun questions, this is one blogspot that should hit the right spot...        My first victim is the lovely awesome author Helle Soe Gade. Hi Helle, thank you for taking part in this blog challenge, I see you have brought an axe with you, I do hope you don't have to use it...  Now you are here armed and dangerous can you tell us a liitle about yourself ?

Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic new year.

This is a little Christmas message for all my friends and the people out there who have shown their support this year at a time when I have really needed it!  It's amazing how many people think they know you, but really do they know you? Do they know when your hurting or when you feel let down and when your feeling alone? We all go through life feeling that pain from time to time and some of us hide it well. We are the kind of people that are to proud to ask for help, we are strong on the outside and a world of worry on the inside, we wont speak out as we feel we won't be heard, we face the world with a smile, holding back the pain, it make's us strong people but also foolish ones for not reaching out ... You're not alone! We all have our own problems and each one is different or similar or in some case's the same!  I have learnt with the right friends and support around you then you're not alone! You're only alone if you let that happen! Don't let

Thank you all for joining me and my wonderful guest on my blogspot. Just a little recap to remind you what the interviews are about... I wanted these interviews to be different and unique. I want them each to have their own individuality to match the author's personality who do participate. I want to do an interview that put the author's mind to the test and also to show the readers how awesome their creative minds actually are when put on the spot..
