Seriously! Saw a text from TBH when I woke this morning about strange noises and something/one outside our house - in the front yard. She also said it sounded like something 'heavier than a bird' landed in the tree. The tree in question is a huge camellia tree, right outside my bedroom window. Yeah, I … Continue reading My life is a book …

Walking in sunshine
Stunning albeit cold day today. The walk to the bookshop was all sunshine and glorious. Don't mind cold starts when the day is lovely! So, what's been happening here? I have the proofs for snakebyte and the new version of Whispers in the Water. Whispers needs some tweaks. Which I knew and had already mostly … Continue reading Walking in sunshine
Satisfaction
I am my own worst enemy sometimes, I really am.I've been trying to come up with a project to keep me busy and take my mind off being home and how much I miss #MyKnight. Having just finished a novel, is a weird headspace anyway without adding time differences and being back home. Yes, I … Continue reading Satisfaction

Remember when I said my publisher changed? Yeah? Of course, you do. Due to this change, my books are NOT available in a paperback version from any overseas site. Waiting for it to happen is futile. There are NO plans to make The Byte Series paperbacks available overseas. Remember I am a kiwi. Overseas is … Continue reading Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes …
Give me something for the pain
*Title is a Bon Jovi song Feels like it fits today. Not that it hasn't been a good week or anything, it's more a writing thing. If you don't think writing can be painful then you're living in fairyland. Currently, I'm back at the beginning of #Cryptobyte because I know more now than I did … Continue reading Give me something for the pain
Ten years …
This year marks my tenth year in this industry. Obviously, my journey began long before 2009 because, well, you don't write a book overnight. Nor do you learn your craft, overnight. My journey began in about 1992. It began because I wanted to read something with real women in it. I wrote a lot and … Continue reading Ten years …
Playing with Keynote
This was the result of my messing around with Keynote this morning. Haven't used it before and it was kinda fun exploring. There is no sound. Haven't figured sound out yet or maybe that's not a thing that Keynote does. I don't know. 🙂 Good chance I'll spend more time fiddling around inside Keynote at … Continue reading Playing with Keynote
