It's a fabulous weekend, bit of a long weekend in actual fact. My best friend arrived on Thursday and we've had a marvellous time. Friday was the official launch of [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot], very much hoping our magnificent library staff got some good photos because I mostly forgot. Completely forgot to get a photo of … Continue reading What a weekend!

Settling into the new normal:
It's quite tricky working out what I can and can't do now and forever more. The only way to work it out is to try. If there's pain it's a no, if there isn't then a way I go. So far most things that are every day type things for me are a big fat … Continue reading Settling into the new normal:
Can I just …
You all know it was release day on Friday, right? [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] is out there in the world fending for itself. Pretty exciting. I think it should be release weekend though, not just day.

Hello, I Love You
Thank the Doors for today's blog title. One of my favourite Doors songs (there are many). The North Island is rather wet and wild at present. Cyclone Gabrielle is doing her bit to make sure we won't forget this summer. It is dangerous out, so don't go out. Just don't. We already have one firefighter … Continue reading Hello, I Love You

Tick or tock?
With Twitter going down the gurgler under Elon's control (or is it? I can't say I've noticed a change at all) ... authors and other people (because there are other people in the world - imagine?) are looking for other platforms. I've already mentioned I'm on Mastadon - I like it. NZ Mastadon is a … Continue reading Tick or tock?

Of October. 🙂 What'd you think I was talking about?Oh, right [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] ... there might be a finishedish first draft that I am going over and beefing up Crockett while checking that this story makes sense. (Grammarly does not recognise finishedish. Guess that'll be added to the "unique word" count for the week. … Continue reading We’ve reached the end …

Strong coffee and mornings:
Last week was read an eBook week. Smashwords had a storewide sale. Jolly fun and all that. Everything is back to normal now. I noticed that killerbyte was downloaded a fair few times. Welcome to the world of Ellie Conway, new people. Lovely to have you aboard. 🙂 I'm feeling the pull to the new … Continue reading Strong coffee and mornings:
Ashes Turn to Stone.
Welcome to Monday evening. The blog title is a song by Kevin Costner and Modern West, in case you were wondering. I'll see if I can find a link for you. 🙂 (Scroll down it's there.)Today was a mixed bag. It's freezing, grey, and dreary, after a wonderfully spring-like weekend. I did get some writing … Continue reading Ashes Turn to Stone.
