And I'm back ~ You may not have noticed my absence but I was gone all week and now I'm back. I had a magnificent fourish days in Christchurch with my sister from other parents. 🙂 There's really no photos of the trip because the only reason for it was to spend time together. No … Continue reading The One I Love

Where’d my ideas go?
I had this whole blog post in my head this morning but then I left my MacBook at home due to the horrendous weather, so I couldn't write it when I got to the bookshop. Also, my wrist isn't terribly happy at the moment. It's been aching like a bastard for three days and nights, … Continue reading Where’d my ideas go?
Your Wildest Dreams
Some nights are just not worth the effort, last night was such a night. Very little sleep and a lot of brain rambling. It's not like my brain was busy working out a plot point or anything, it was not, it was rambling! Thoughts wandered all over the map. Should I add indigo or teal … Continue reading Your Wildest Dreams
Into the Great Wide Open
Today is September 25th. It's the cancelled VAPORBYTE launch day. Tonight there will be tequila. 🙂 Apart from the disappointment of the year (and it really has been back to back disappointment and learning to roll with the punches) ... I'm working on two new projects.I know, two. My head is shaking as well.One is … Continue reading Into the Great Wide Open
She put the boy back in cowboy.
I'm not sure I can play music any louder today. Apparently, the album I've decided I need to hear right now is "Lost Highway" by Bon Jovi.And yes, I do know the words to every song. No doubt the neighbors are unimpressed. This week, I need this so there ya go.Music is like a blanket … Continue reading She put the boy back in cowboy.
What am I waiting for?
Floundering a bit at the moment. Turns out I'm not 100% convinced that I know what I'm going to do next. It's quite a weird feeling after years of knowing exactly what the next step was - listen to Ellie and write, rinse and repeat.Now it's wide open and could be anything and I don't … Continue reading What am I waiting for?

I think this will be fun.Of course I think … Continue reading Fire and Ice
Dream Weaver
Kia ora,The week has begun. Well, it’s Sunday, so technically it’s the beginning of the week. So far, it’s all right, nothing to write home about. To be honest, it could try harder. My Knight is recovering from his hip replacement in Perth and I’m here in New Zealand. That is not the ideal situation. Thanks for … Continue reading Dream Weaver
I Know It’s Gonna Happen Someday
Bonus points if you recognize the song title and know which album it comes from. I am not sleeping at all well at the moment. Figure it's a whole bunch of things including My Knight having fairly major surgery next week and due to asshats who can't do simple things like - not spread COVID … Continue reading I Know It’s Gonna Happen Someday

Thank you for that song, Sailor. It's a catchy little number.It's ear worm material. I'm not even sorry. 🙂 https://youtu.be/qumA791iaJc Enjoy.There is precious little writing happening this week. I do need to knuckle down and get the 'first draft' of the new book completed. Slow going when I'm not actually opening the file ... seems … Continue reading Girls, Girls, Girls
