Some days are waiting days.Currently I'm waiting for the dog ranger to come and make us safe again by removing a dangerous dog from the neighbourhood. We shall see if that happens or not. I hope it does. I'd quite like to bring our big red bin in from the street but none of us … Continue reading Waiting …

Here’s the thing:
Things need to fall into place this year without nonsense.1. [Indigo Romeo Lima] is underway. 2. The launch plan for [Foxtrot Mike Lima] is looking good. I've got the merch already so yay! Thank you 2023 me for getting your shit together. This year is a bit trickier than last so I have to be … Continue reading Here’s the thing:
Sometimes it gets to me:
Bit of a rant because I feel like I'm being stomped over and it is not pleasant.It would be nice to end the year with sales!I've given away more books than I've sold in the last few months. That's not sustainable in any shape or form. I think next year will be a year of … Continue reading Sometimes it gets to me:
What’s going on?
If you're like me you have no fucking clue. Just out here winging and hoping for the best. That is in fact how I write. Could be worse, I could be winging it with a non-functioning brain. :)It appears that some people are.This morning was all about adverbs, adjectives, passive and active sentences, loglines, and … Continue reading What’s going on?
Crash Into Me.
Actually don't. No. I don't want you to crash into me. In fact, stay far far away. It's Monday. Coffee is black and hot, as it should be. It's a bit early in the day and the week for anything much. The plan is to work on [Foxtrot Mike Lima] after physio this morning. We … Continue reading Crash Into Me.

Moody blue …
No secret that I love listening to Elvis. Years ago I had Elvis's blue album. An actual blue record. Fabulous! Anywho, today I need to seriously think about writing my speech/talking points for the [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] launch at Upper Hutt Library on August 4th, 6PM. Be there or be square. 🙂 Turns out Ronnie's … Continue reading Moody blue …
Been away for a wee bit but I’m back!
I'm sure you all missed me. 🙂 Or not. Got home this afternoon. There was joy because the shuttle driver was the same lovely driver who took me to the airport on Saturday. We had a good laugh at various idiots in cars (he's not fond of most drivers) and then we had wee chat … Continue reading Been away for a wee bit but I’m back!
