This week's light reading comprised of a security report, to be fair, that's not unusual. What fascinated me this week was how close I am to the truth when I'm writing the Veronica Tracey Series. Such fun! Let's just say that my bad actors are indeed a threat to our security. I knew that already, … Continue reading Light reading

10 things about last week.
Will there be ten? Let's find out, shall we?1. I can't remember Monday. 2. The drain layer (Jeremy) started digging the trenches. We could still use the shower and loo. Hooray! $$$$$3. More digging. Some drains were replaced out the front on the street. Everything was hooked up so we could use the loo overnight. … Continue reading 10 things about last week.
Long walk off a short plank:
Quite pleased with the direction of [Indigo Delta Kilo] at this point. I can see the next few scenes (as video in my brain as usual) so that's good. The title of this post came about because Crockett said it and I haven't heard that phrase for a long time. Probably the last time I … Continue reading Long walk off a short plank:
Meet Your New Favourite Team.
Saving the world is hard. It’s slightly easier when you have a team who: ✔ knows what they’re doing ✔ has your back ✔ and can still crack a joke in the middle of chaos This is a fast-paced spy/PI series packed with action, sharp dialogue, and characters you’ll wish were real. You can start … Continue reading Meet Your New Favourite Team.
[Indigo Delta Kilo]
Last year I wrote two novels. [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra] and [Echo Mike Papa]. Really, I could've taken this year off and launched [Echo Mike Papa] next year. Am I? Hell no.I started a joint project earlier this year then got myself stuck with some rather tricky bomb details for a very large bomb. It's the … Continue reading [Indigo Delta Kilo]
[FFS] launch day!
What a very busy time the last four months have been but we made. We landed here on [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra] launch day! Today came with a big plumbing bill, so that was fun. If you've wanted to start reading my work - now's good. I could do with the sales because today's was the … Continue reading [FFS] launch day!
Authorial Doom Spiral
AKA: what happens pre-launch. Twice in the life of a single book, there are times when the brain goes completely feral: the instant you finish a novel … I call it *writers’ trench coat syndrome* when your brain doesn’t know what to do with itself and you are pretty sure nothing makes sense. It’s not … Continue reading Authorial Doom Spiral
Dark emotional FBI thriller with a strong female lead.
That's a mouthful of a title. Probably not something you want to say too many times. It's a lot. But, then, so is Ellie Conway. Maybe it works then? Just lately a lot of the scammer 'marketing' and scammer 'bookclub' emails have been rabbiting on about books in the FBI-Byte Series. I'm not sure why. … Continue reading Dark emotional FBI thriller with a strong female lead.
Spy thrillers with humour and heart.
It turns out I am writing the 9th Veronica Tracey Spy/PI novel. I thought maybe I'd take a break and work on something else. I did try. Apparently dropping Ronnie on the side of the road so I can work on a different thing is just as difficult as dropping Ellie Conway off somewhere. We … Continue reading Spy thrillers with humour and heart.
We’re having a time.
It's neither good nor bad but it is frustrating. Just when you think something looks good - reality hits - and it turns to shit. Such fun. Anywho, on we go, until we find a balance/compromise we can live with. Currently the options are limited. Not everything is up for compromise. 🙂 Did you enjoy … Continue reading We’re having a time.
