January is marching on and I'm pretty well over it already. Probably not the greatest start to 2022 to be already over the year. But that's how it is. I could lie and say how glorious the new year is, but it fucking isn't. Never the less good stuff is happening and life moves on. … Continue reading And so it goes …

Thank you for loving me.
https://youtu.be/h6-Y1WIkaYY Yes, I know I usually add the video at the end, but this song I particularly like and it says most of what I want to say, to the people in my life who show up when I need them. It's New Years Eve.I have to say this year was hugely better than 2020. … Continue reading Thank you for loving me.
Who shot Crockett?
🙂 Did anyone shoot Crockett? You'll find out when [Leave a message] launches around about the middle of 2022. If he survives without a scratch I'll be very surprised. So will you now. 🙂 Anywho, I had a dream last night that wouldn't quit. I woke at one point to turn the fan off and … Continue reading Who shot Crockett?
Christmas is over.
In some ways, I'm glad to see the back of it for another year. It's a day I don't particularly enjoy. There's a lot of cooking and cleaning involved, and then a lot of clean-up. I enjoy having the kids home, that bit is pretty awesome but the rest of it is long and tiring. … Continue reading Christmas is over.
And It Stoned Me.
Thanks for the song Van Morrison. Hadn't heard that one in a while. It's a beautiful day here today. Don't want to say that too loud in case the rain comes back, we are over it! Today is a proper summer day, the second consecutive one.It's a writing day for me. But before I disappear … Continue reading And It Stoned Me.
Wouldn’t it be great …
If you could plug yourself into a charger or stick your hand on a changing mat and magically re-charge. Well, I think it'd be damn handy. Especially in muggy gross weather. Summer so far is horrible. I'm not a fan. Enough about my dislike of wet weather.I stumbled across something the other day that sounded … Continue reading Wouldn’t it be great …
I Walk The Line
Thanks to Johnny Cash for the title, but, I think we all know I don't walk the line ... I repel over that thing at every opportunity. It's in my genes. I finished teaching for the year. It was fun, as always. I very much hope my students go on and write amazing crime novels. … Continue reading I Walk The Line

Octo 31st, 2021
Happy Halloween, if that's your thing. It's not so much mine. Some of my kids do enjoy the Halloween thing. I used to celebrate All Hallow's Eve once upon a time, with a big family dinner and places set for those we've lost (in Wiccan fashion). Now I don't have a table we all fit … Continue reading Octo 31st, 2021
Last Man Standing.
It's a week until The byte Series Volume Four launches. I don't know how to mark that. I've never really done much for the launch of the boxed sets. I do know the first boxed set launched on Halloween so I chose to launch the last boxed set on Halloween. I do have quite a … Continue reading Last Man Standing.
