I am tired. Really tired. Was trying to read that book (we've talked about it before) but it's driving me crazy. When I read, I see images and video. I don't see words I see what the words create. And I love reading, except sometimes when an author does something really silly and I see … Continue reading She lied to the FBI.

Am I teaching this month?
Only time will tell. I very much hope I am because I LOVE LOVE teaching crime writing. It's right up there as one of my favourite things. And that reminds me I want to go through my text book (because I made myself one so I didn't have to carry bundles of notes), and tweak … Continue reading Am I teaching this month?
What the actual fuck Elly/Ellie Conway!
The more things change the more they stay the same springs to mind. Today has been trying to say the least. I am livid but trying not to be because I don't have proof and haven't read the offending book yet. I will be reading it when it arrives on Tuesday. It cost me $38 … Continue reading What the actual fuck Elly/Ellie Conway!

Waiting …
Some days are waiting days.Currently I'm waiting for the dog ranger to come and make us safe again by removing a dangerous dog from the neighbourhood. We shall see if that happens or not. I hope it does. I'd quite like to bring our big red bin in from the street but none of us … Continue reading Waiting …
Jan 1st, 2024
Another year rolled around. My cards were frighteningly positive. Not a blip to be seen. Not quite sure what to make of that. So I'll leave it alone.(Clearly they weren't talking about my wrist. It decided to rock in with a 9/10 on the pain scale. So that's fun, said no one fucking ever. It's … Continue reading Jan 1st, 2024
Sometimes it gets to me:
Bit of a rant because I feel like I'm being stomped over and it is not pleasant.It would be nice to end the year with sales!I've given away more books than I've sold in the last few months. That's not sustainable in any shape or form. I think next year will be a year of … Continue reading Sometimes it gets to me:
Edits = author fun
Traditionally I turn edits around quickly and this time is no exception. My lovely editor sent the first round of edits yesterday arvo (Boxing Day). I didn't even mean to get stuck in, I was just having a look. A marked-up document is irresistible to me. They're done. That's how I operate. It's been a … Continue reading Edits = author fun
Merry Whatever!

Well, I'm glad you asked ... we're expecting to launch [FML] mid-2024![Foxtrot Mike Lima]: Ronnie Tracey’s week kicks off with the unexpected.Mitch Iverson’s … Continue reading Merry Whatever!
I learnt something …
So this week, I learnt something about myself that I didn't know (or didn't realise I knew?) but explains so much. When I read I don't see words I see images, we all knew that. I can see the words if I want to but that means I read each one and they don't create … Continue reading I learnt something …
