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!
[Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra]
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
Stone cold …
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 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.
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.
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.
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 …
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 …
Add title …
You wouldn't think it was difficult to come up with a blog post title, would you? Well, let me tell ya - for me it's harder than naming a book. I see the 'add title' words sitting there and it annoys me. And some days I just don't have a title in me. Not a … Continue reading Add title …
Where to now?
This week feels a tad confused. My days are screwy. It'll even out. Meanwhile, I've had to move things around to make everything work. So everything is a day late! Anywho, that's not what this post is about. I have a question for Pages users. Have you tried 'Proofread'? If so, what did you think? … Continue reading Where to now?
