This morning I was creating some graphics. My right index finger was stone cold for nearly half an hour and then for fun it did it four more times. Maybe if I ever get contacted by Pacific Radiology to book an MRI of my wrist we will find out why this shit keeps happening. They've … Continue reading Stone cold …

The big shift.
There was a big shift this week. Doris and I moved into our new house. And it occurred to me that people don't saying 'shifting house' much these day. They move. Kiwi's mostly shifted back in the day. I think I like shifting better. Moving sounds like you've picked the house up and popped it … Continue reading The big shift.
Frank and me.
Tonight Doris and I went to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show at the St James theatre. We had seats in the third row. Yes, the third row. Yes, it was very loud - at times. No, we will not sit in the 3rd row again. (A 32 and 33) Just because it was so … Continue reading Frank and me.
The things we do.
Every day we do things. Things we don't even think about. We just do them. They're not usually a conscious thought, but learned or repetitive behaviours. Cleaning your teeth for example. It's second nature to most of us because we were conditioned to clean our teeth every day.I was thinking today about the frailty of … Continue reading The things we do.
There’s a blaze of light in every word.
The title is from Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah (In case you didn't recognise the words). The other day I was getting things organised. As I do. I got the final files for [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra] loaded to all the platforms. Yay. The plan was do it all now and then just let it sit, knowing everything … Continue reading There’s a blaze of light in every word.
Now I have another question:
The latest scammy spammy emails arriving in force are "behind the scenes" emails. FFS. They're from "digital marketers" and they're wanting to put together 'behind the scenes' videos for authors. I'm not sure what these bots/people think goes on when authors are writing but I am sure that it would make a very boring video. … Continue reading Now I have another question:
I had questions …
Some days make you shake your head. Shit happens and stuff goes sideways and you don't really grasp how it could happen. Everyone has days like that, right? Well, folks, let me tell you a tale about Friday the 13th. I went off to work at 8:30 this morning (extra shift), knowing that my author … Continue reading I had questions …
New work is hard
Actually it's more, new characters are hard. It is a new work and all new characters and it isn't an easy thing to wrap my malfunctioning brain around. There is a huge temptation to grab a familiar face and drop them into the periphery just so I can get a better handle on what's happening. … Continue reading New work is hard
Night comes on …
It's been a week, a busy week! How is it only half way through? 🙂 So much to do and a lot of hurry up and wait. Leonard Cohen has featured prominently in my playlists this week ... as he does from time to time. Leonard Cohen songs even made it into the FBI-Byte Series … Continue reading Night comes on …
