Yesterday I drank so many cups of tea I was beginning to feel waterlogged. This morning I'm on my second pot of plunger coffee because I cannot face anymore tea. It's very rare for me to drink this much coffee. Good indication that the germs Freda brought into the house have won. I shall keep … Continue reading When the germs get you …

The Tide Is High
There's been a lot of writing happening here over the last few weeks. So much so that this new book will be a complete "first draft" sometime in October. I was aiming for late November. It's gone places I didn't think it would. There is more than one surprise in this story. I love when … Continue reading The Tide Is High
Do you ever?
Do you ever check which country visitors to your website are from? I do it everyday. Depending on the country my mouth will engage and loudly say, "Well you can fuck off." Certain countries are a precursors to bad shit going down. How's that for a generalisation?Usually if I see a particular country lurking on … Continue reading Do you ever?
Whatcha doing now?
Found myself asking a character that ^^ question this morning. Ben was behaving less like Ben I thought but then I realised I'd never let him take over before, he was always seen through Ronnie or Crockett's eyes. Maybe Ben was just being Ben. 🙂 If so, it's a markedly different side of him and … Continue reading Whatcha doing now?
No Expectations
Thanks to The Rolling Stones for the blog title. I'll put the album in at the end: Beggars Banquet. Yesterday I felt the need to write. So that was good. Happening a lot these days. I'm expecting that I'll be writing again later today. [Foxtrot Mike Lima] is coming along. There were three false chapter … Continue reading No Expectations
Blue Moon
We had a blue moon. A super blue moon. Seems like every month there is a new wonderful named super moon. Pretty sure no one cared if the moon had names until recently. That's fine. Us witches are aware of the different moons and always have been. The moon is important. And a super moon, … Continue reading Blue Moon
Don’t you remember?
I'm quite focused on writing at the moment. My brain is starting to work at its normal pace, there are a lot of balls in the air and no notes to keep me on track. Why'? Because it happened suddenly. The notes, scenes, I'd hand written are no longer relevant. It's not what I thought … Continue reading Don’t you remember?
What’s going on?
If you're like me you have no fucking clue. Just out here winging and hoping for the best. That is in fact how I write. Could be worse, I could be winging it with a non-functioning brain. :)It appears that some people are.This morning was all about adverbs, adjectives, passive and active sentences, loglines, and … Continue reading What’s going on?
Crash Into Me.
Actually don't. No. I don't want you to crash into me. In fact, stay far far away. It's Monday. Coffee is black and hot, as it should be. It's a bit early in the day and the week for anything much. The plan is to work on [Foxtrot Mike Lima] after physio this morning. We … Continue reading Crash Into Me.
What’s going on?
Seems like I ask that question a lot when I'm working. It's interspersed with "What do they want?" and "What's the worst case scenario?" Currently, "What's going on?" is front and centre. To be fair, I often don't know how something will play out or what's going on. My brain is just getting back to … Continue reading What’s going on?
