Or not. I don't care either way. But, AI is getting pretty good and it's fun to play with. After working (yes, writing) for a few hours this morning I decided I'd go see how ChatGPT was doing. It gets better all the time. Wanna see the results? Yeah, you're going to regardless of whatever … Continue reading AI can be fun. Trust me.
Kiwi story
There’s not enough coffee …
Day Light Savings ended. I'm glad it's finished. Now there is a 4-hour time difference between here and Perth instead of the 5 hours we had all summer. It doesn't matter when My Knight is here but it makes quite a difference when he's in Perth. I just made a second pot of coffee. It's … Continue reading There’s not enough coffee …
What’s the catch?
If you follow me and Pete Turner on Twitter and you haven’t read any of my work and you would like to read something … The 1st 10 people to DM me with an email address will get an email with an ePub attached. No strings. I’m nice like that. (FBI thriller or very Kiwi … Continue reading What’s the catch?
Faraway Eyes
Another day has rolled around. Probably a good thing that they keep doing that. 🙂 This morning I tweaked a scene in [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] because I have time before my lovely editor gets into the book. So I added something that was needed and sent off an updated version. I've started on [Foxtrot Mike … Continue reading Faraway Eyes
Gotta Have A Reason
Thanks to Bon Jovi for the blog title. (I'll pop the song down the end for you.)Today is the 14th of March. Release day for "Written In Leaves"I honestly didn't see this day coming because I didn't think I'd finish that novella. But I did. (I won't be beaten by a story.)And now you can … Continue reading Gotta Have A Reason
Written in Leaves
It took two years and then some to write this story but now it's a thing. A proper thing. I even went hardback because I can. 🙂 At 38 thousand words it is a novella. Sue and I do not like when people say they've written a novel and it's under 80k. And if it's … Continue reading Written in Leaves
More coffee is needed.
It's a day. The difference is that I got the email about "Read an eBook week" that is in March on Smashwords. I usually sign up. No doubt I will over the next few days. The thing is ... is it worthwhile giving away the first two Byte Series books and the first Veronica Tracey … Continue reading More coffee is needed.
Hello, I Love You
Thank the Doors for today's blog title. One of my favourite Doors songs (there are many). The North Island is rather wet and wild at present. Cyclone Gabrielle is doing her bit to make sure we won't forget this summer. It is dangerous out, so don't go out. Just don't. We already have one firefighter … Continue reading Hello, I Love You
Things I have learnt.
If you are away from something for two months and don't miss it, it's time for a change. You all know I was away from the bookshop for two months. I did not miss it. It's not that I didn't miss interacting with authors - that part I did miss. I very much enjoy catching … Continue reading Things I have learnt.
Here’s Dallas …
January ended with a new family member. Doris has her kitten!We didn't think we'd be adding to the menagerie so soon but the opportunity arose and along came little Dallas. (Tortoiseshell Birman.) I expected a bit of pushback from Diesel and Patrick. I did not expect Diesel to start treating Dallas like she was his … Continue reading Here’s Dallas …
