Everything is hairy
All the animals are shedding like it's their job. The joy of spring time, I guess. Today was a planting day. Six tomato plants and two giant pumpkins. The pumpkins are named Peter and Petra. I may or may not name the tomatoes. We also planted mint. (When I say 'we' it was Geoff. I … Continue reading Everything is hairy
Counting down …
I love a countdown. I really do. The countdown I have presently is my favourite sort. It's not a book release it's entirely for me. My Knight will be home for a holiday soon. It's the best countdown ever and the shortest we've had. So hooray! This week just got busy, especially Wednesday. Appointments all … Continue reading Counting down …
I have to say something …
If you're a frequent flyer reader here then you know that there are occasions when I read a book so dreadful that it becomes a teaching moment. Notes are made. I use the awfulness as an example (of what not to do) for my crime writing class. Who can forget the honey-haired denim-eyed fiasco? This … Continue reading I have to say something …
And the reading has begun …
Yep, I'm reading [Foxtrot Mike Lima] for the first time as an entire story. So far so good. 🙂 It's always interesting what I have in my head that could be issues compared to what is written. I was pretty sure that I'd skimped on some details/description and whatnot. So far, I have not. That's … Continue reading And the reading has begun …
It’s over rover …
But it's not really over it's just beginning. The initial writing stage is over. Hopefully [Foxtrot Mike Lima] now has 97k worth of bones and sinew and is ready for a little bit of muscle. As much as I want to dive in and start reading this weekend, I am not going to. I am … Continue reading It’s over rover …
Do you ever?
Do you ever check which country visitors to your website are from? I do it everyday. Depending on the country my mouth will engage and loudly say, "Well you can fuck off." Certain countries are a precursors to bad shit going down. How's that for a generalisation?Usually if I see a particular country lurking on … Continue reading Do you ever?
Whatcha doing now?
Found myself asking a character that ^^ question this morning. Ben was behaving less like Ben I thought but then I realised I'd never let him take over before, he was always seen through Ronnie or Crockett's eyes. Maybe Ben was just being Ben. 🙂 If so, it's a markedly different side of him and … Continue reading Whatcha doing now?
No Expectations
Thanks to The Rolling Stones for the blog title. I'll put the album in at the end: Beggars Banquet. Yesterday I felt the need to write. So that was good. Happening a lot these days. I'm expecting that I'll be writing again later today. [Foxtrot Mike Lima] is coming along. There were three false chapter … Continue reading No Expectations
Blue Moon
We had a blue moon. A super blue moon. Seems like every month there is a new wonderful named super moon. Pretty sure no one cared if the moon had names until recently. That's fine. Us witches are aware of the different moons and always have been. The moon is important. And a super moon, … Continue reading Blue Moon
