Another week zapped by and here we are looking at another Saturday. I was supposed to be teaching crime writing today. It should've been the first lesson. But, Omicron has fucked that. About 40 classes were cancelled for Omicron related reasons. 😦 I get it though. To be honest with the muppet protest in the … Continue reading Road to nowhere.

What does it take?
What does it take to get authors who have their books in our shop to share social media posts we make? It's a serious question because I really want to know what it takes.Clearly, there is something I'm missing. It gets pretty frustrating when a post goes out and no one bothers to share it … Continue reading What does it take?
January is over.
Can't say January was particularly good so I'm hoping Feb will be an improvement. Although, I did finish [Leave a message] in Jan so it wasn't all shit. We're still in the middle of neighbour hell or a war zone. Every day it feels more and more like a war zone. We're waiting for the … Continue reading January is over.
I’ll Be Waiting
It's Tuesday. New Zealand went to RED at midnight on Sunday night. We cancelled our "Inside Quote Marks" event yesterday.

(When volcanoes erupt and other things interfere with … Continue reading Writing music:
One step closer.
Today started rough. Last night was a disaster, I got bugger all sleep. That doesn't not make for a fun day, I can assure you. AND THEN ... I took the wrong glasses with me to work. The lighting in the bookshop fucks my migraine brain big time, there is only so much prevention medication … Continue reading One step closer.
And so it goes …
January is marching on and I'm pretty well over it already. Probably not the greatest start to 2022 to be already over the year. But that's how it is. I could lie and say how glorious the new year is, but it fucking isn't. Never the less good stuff is happening and life moves on. … Continue reading And so it goes …
Who shot Crockett?
🙂 Did anyone shoot Crockett? You'll find out when [Leave a message] launches around about the middle of 2022. If he survives without a scratch I'll be very surprised. So will you now. 🙂 Anywho, I had a dream last night that wouldn't quit. I woke at one point to turn the fan off and … Continue reading Who shot Crockett?
