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

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?
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?
When will you be mine?
Last night was another crappy nights sleep but while I was not sleeping I discovered a story thread (in my mind) that I think I'm going to explore. Has a little to do with foreshadowing but not what anyone would expect. Anywho, I'm going to see how far it goes and what happens. This is … Continue reading When will you be mine?
Just give me a reason …
Hey, how are ya?Sincerely hoping you said good or fine or something positive. 🙂 I just got tagged in an article/story/whatever about me. It never gets old. You might think so shortly though because the link is going EVERYWHERE. I kid you not!When people talk about me, I find it quite strange because their rendition … Continue reading Just give me a reason …
August! Already!
I'm not ready for August. Wasn't it just yesterday that it was March? Wasn't it?Where has the time gone?Why is it moving so fast?I need to let that go. It's book launch event week. It is EVENT WEEK. I am far too calm this morning for day two of launch week. I managed to wrestle … Continue reading August! Already!
Moody blue …
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 …
Been away for a wee bit but I’m back!
I'm sure you all missed me. 🙂 Or not. Got home this afternoon. There was joy because the shuttle driver was the same lovely driver who took me to the airport on Saturday. We had a good laugh at various idiots in cars (he's not fond of most drivers) and then we had wee chat … Continue reading Been away for a wee bit but I’m back!
The things my kids do:
Last week my youngest son (who is about to be an age that doesn't make him very young at all) was playing with ChatGPT after I'd shared some news.This is the result of Josh's tinkering. I don't know exactly what his prompt was and ChatGPT consistently wants to say my Byte Series is about hackers … Continue reading The things my kids do:
