Well, I’ve been haunted in my sleep.
Last night I fell asleep reading [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] and had some crazy dreams. It's not the first time I've fallen asleep reading [WTF] but it's the first time I've read it like it is now. Pretty well done. It's exciting reading it as a real (almost) finished book. It came in just over 85k. … Continue reading Well, I’ve been haunted in my sleep.
Written in Leaves
It took two years and then some to write this story but now it's a thing. A proper thing. I even went hardback because I can. 🙂 At 38 thousand words it is a novella. Sue and I do not like when people say they've written a novel and it's under 80k. And if it's … Continue reading Written in Leaves
End of an era?
Feels like the end of an era. Writers Plot Bookshop is closing and will be online only from Saturday. It was a big part of my life for 7 years and now it's the end. It was a dream and then a reality and now I'm gone and so is the shop. I will be … Continue reading End of an era?
More coffee is needed.
It's a day. The difference is that I got the email about "Read an eBook week" that is in March on Smashwords. I usually sign up. No doubt I will over the next few days. The thing is ... is it worthwhile giving away the first two Byte Series books and the first Veronica Tracey … Continue reading More coffee is needed.
Things I have learnt.
If you are away from something for two months and don't miss it, it's time for a change. You all know I was away from the bookshop for two months. I did not miss it. It's not that I didn't miss interacting with authors - that part I did miss. I very much enjoy catching … Continue reading Things I have learnt.

Next weekend is my birthday party. I am currently putting a playlist together. It's six hours long and getting longer. 🙂 In other news: I am on holiday soon! YAY. In fact, my last day is Tuesday the 6th. I will be spending lots of time with my family, getting some dental work done, getting … Continue reading Flowers on the wall …
Destination Anywhere:
You get points if you know the album and bonus points if you've seen the movie. 🙂 Yes, it's Jon Bon Jovi. I've loved this album since it was released. I don't know how many times I've seen the movie ... I own the DVD. I love it. Anywho, it felt like a good album … Continue reading Destination Anywhere:

Do you know what? Well, do ya?Do you know?Didn't think so ... shall I tell you? ...All right you twisted my arm. I missed the Secret Santa NZ sign-up. Second year in a row. Gutted. But then, the elves sorted it because in New Zealand we have fucking awesome elves. And it's on. We're all … Continue reading It’s a crazy world out there …
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?
