That's right, the Rod Stewart song is today's blog title. Why? Because I like the song. Also, because it's the title of the first story in Cachebyte. Words have been elusive since I arrived home from Mahau Sound. [FFS] isn't moving along as fast as it did while I was away. It's annoying me. (Of … Continue reading Every Beat of My Heart.

Hey ho silver lining.
I've been writing quite a bit lately. [FFS] is coming along nicely. I had to go back and write three new chapters in the beginning to satisfy my gut feeling that it didn't start early enough and add a few other things that I knew I needed to mention, early. I did that. It works … Continue reading Hey ho silver lining.
Autumn has arrived.
This morning is a clear blue sky autumn day. The kind I love. Crisp and beautiful. I'm sitting having a coffee with a Birman in my lap. She's making typing difficult and she doesn't care. There are worse problems to have. Last night was spent with friends. Laughing. Drinking a little bit. Eating delicious corned … Continue reading Autumn has arrived.
Magic formula?
I've been a bit hopeless at blogging (and also writing) for the last few weeks. Possibly a few things causing apathy. Sometimes it's all too much, and to be honest, it feels like a waste of time. As much as I love writing and enjoy the VT Series characters, I'd also like proper sales. That … Continue reading Magic formula?
Is it worthwhile?
Talk about a question that is wide open! 🙂 Anyway, I was thinking about boxed sets - are they boxed sets though? Or are they an omnibus?

Avenues and alleyways
I'm reading a book. I know, shocker!It's got a main character who has migraine disorder. It's not one of my FBI-Byte Series books. What? 🙂 Where I left off last night the main character had an icepick migraine. (They are evil fuckers but they only last seconds.) So far, I've had every type of migraine … Continue reading Avenues and alleyways
A day in the life …
I've just sat down. Potentially I could spend the next two hours writing. We'll see.How was your Monday?Mine looked, and still looks in some regards, like this:I stumbled out of bed to let the dog out, then back in, and then feed the beasts, and made coffee. While my coffee was brewing I opened all … Continue reading A day in the life …
