No secret that I love listening to Elvis. Years ago I had Elvis's blue album. An actual blue record. Fabulous! Anywho, today I need to seriously think about writing my speech/talking points for the [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] launch at Upper Hutt Library on August 4th, 6PM. Be there or be square. 🙂 Turns out Ronnie's … Continue reading Moody blue …

Can I just …
You all know it was release day on Friday, right? [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] is out there in the world fending for itself. Pretty exciting. I think it should be release weekend though, not just day. I mean when something takes nearly a year to write then you've got all the editing (and your nobtastic editor) … Continue reading Can I just …

Let it Bleed
I haven't heard 'Let it Bleed' in ages so today I'm changing that. (I'll link you to it down the bottom.)It's a dull grey rainy day and the urge to do nothing is high. Yesterday I was a domestic goddess and cleaned the oven, cleaned all the downstairs windows ... all manner of cleaning went … Continue reading Let it Bleed

If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook then you might have seen me say I would share another bio that ChatGPT wrote for me. And I will. Early this evening I had some fun with ChatGPT and got it to write bios for me and for my buddy Pete. We're both pretty sure that … Continue reading Another look at AI …
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 …
Gotta Have A Reason

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
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 …
Trolls are alive and well …
Seems that all it takes to cop abuse is to be a Kiwi author and run a boosted post about a new release. Guess there are some very unhappy Australians out there who enjoy knocking Kiwis for no reason at all. Never mind the people who assume a boosted post for [Leave a message] is … Continue reading Trolls are alive and well …
