Your prize is a blog post about characterisation and creating different characters. More specifially how characters view the world differently. Let's look at that, shall we?

Neon Sunrise/Level 4: day 1
Here we go New Zealand, our Level Four lockdown is underway, we got this. We are a team of 5 million. Let's not forget that. Stay home, stay safe, be kind. We do not want to follow the Aussie example! Meanwhile, the bookshop is obviously closed. We can't sell online either until Level Four eases. … Continue reading Neon Sunrise/Level 4: day 1
If You Want My Love You Got It
I cannot lie I love me some Cheap Trick and that song ^ was playing when I turned the radio on this morning. It's one of my favs from Cheap Trick. I've been radio silent for a wee while. No doubt you've missed my insightful posts and blunt comments on, well, everything. 🙂 (Or Not.) … Continue reading If You Want My Love You Got It
Break on through to the otherside …
Man, I'm a sucker for punishment. I picked that book up again last night ... and the butchery got worse. Didn't think it was possible. I'm now fully convinced the author used a word Lexicon, not just a thesaurus but someone elses compiled list of ridiculous words. At first it was hilarious, not gonna lie, … Continue reading Break on through to the otherside …
Things change …
If you've visited my Facebook page or the bookshop's page you'll already know (depending on whether FB allowed you to see the post) that "Inside Quote Marks" event in Sept was cancelled. It's postponed not cancelled but Facebook doesn't allow postponment without a definite date and we're waiting to have the date we want confirmed. … Continue reading Things change …

Who sends an email with no … Continue reading I have a dark wee mind
Limitless
Kinda how I feel today. Working. Knowing I can write without worrying about random shutdowns. Knowing I can write without having to use a fucking mouse - which 100% kills my stuffed wrist. Having a working trackpad is a pure delight!So this morning, I'm writing. I've written over 2K so far, because it's easy. I … Continue reading Limitless
But You Don’t Care
Thanks Mi-Sex for the blog title and the song, because it's awesome and I'd forgotten just how cool you were. Although, posting a YouTube video of You Don't Care - got me followed on Twitter by some porn bot and also added to some weird-arsed Twitter group. So, nah. I won't be mentioning the band … Continue reading But You Don’t Care
Attached to tech?
I am. I have no problem admitting it. Tech is my lifeline. It's how I communicate with my partner every day. It's the only way we survived 18 months apart, and now, we're back to FaceTime and texts because that 5000km (and change) distance requires tech.It's no secret that I love my MacBook. I really … Continue reading Attached to tech?
Once again it’s July 3rd
July the third keeps happening which is actually a good thing I suppose. I haven't like July 3rd much for many years. Thirty-eight years actually. It doesn't bother me as much as it used to, that's the time thing. It does heal or minimise, but I never forget. The sound of his laugh and the … Continue reading Once again it’s July 3rd
