If you've been here a while you know that, Long Cool Woman is Ellie's song. The reason for this blog post is because of an email I got this morning. I thought, maybe, we'd have a chat about it. Stick around for some writer truths.For almost 20 years, Ellie Conway lived in my head. I … Continue reading Long Cool Woman

The singer sang his song …
It's been quite a week! The final changes were made to Raidbyte, after I waded through the proof. Kinda fun to be honest. And there is something particularly awesome about a hardback. I do love it. At some stage I will update the info on Amazon because it says nothing ... but they make the … Continue reading The singer sang his song …

This from author Margot Kinberg about the death of characters in a series. Fab read!
Dance, Dance, Dance.
Or wait, wait, wait ... but I prefer to dance. 🙂 It's how I'm wired. Currently, my wrist is driving me bonkers. Without wearing the wrist widget I can't do much without pain. There's only so much the wrist widget can do, it doesn't help much when I need to move heavy furniture to clean … Continue reading Dance, Dance, Dance.
The holding pattern …
Kinda feels like I'm in a holding pattern right now! Two things are happening but both involve a lot of 'hurry up and wait'. They'll be well worth it in the end, but, meanwhile ... waiting.

Have you noticed …?
This has been going on for a while now, but, fuck me, it's pretty annoying to a certain age group (mine). The thing is ... When you say "I'm working on myself." We want to know what kind of tools you're using. Is there a hammer? Has some body part come loose that needs reattaching? … Continue reading Have you noticed …?
Neighbours from hell …
I know someone who regularly tries to read my blog or reach my site but it's blocked in his current part of the world. I don't know why, potentially, I swear too much and have little regard for sensibilities. It will be interesting to see if Michael gets to see this post! 🙂 We all … Continue reading Neighbours from hell …

I figured it'd be about ten by the time I get this written, so, there ya go. :)As many of you are aware, on Friday we had a wonderful event at Upper Hutt Library called: Books with Byte. It was great fun. Books with Byte ends the byte series. We launched Vaporbyte (both versions) because … Continue reading News at 10.
