Any Bon Jovi fan knows, exactly what words are missing from today's blog title. 🙂 I am listening to Bon Jovi (imagine?) this morning, trying to find some energy for today. I need energy today for another long walk. That's six in a row. I am tired. Anyway, I did get some writing done this … Continue reading “I ain’t gonna be … in the crowd”

Promised Land
No secret that I love me some Elvis. Promised Land is way up there as one of my favourite songs that Elvis sang.Today was a really fun day. Always lovely to have a visit from Anne Barwell, one of our fabulous authors. Then, we had the filming for the Wellington Airport Regional Community Awards. Much … Continue reading Promised Land
How do you write?
Quite the question really. I'm always fascinated by how other authors do their thing. I know how I write. I know how stories come together for me. I know to trust my process because I've learnt to trust how my mind works. (Learnt is the correct word, I'm not American.) Doris was watching me work … Continue reading How do you write?
It’s been a minute …
I was thinking it’s been a minute since I’ve given away a fabbo prize pack.What’s better than snuggling up with a book and other goodies in winter?(Clearly, me snuggling up with My Knight would be better, but it’s not about me.)How hard should we make this?Yeah, that’s what I thought.I’ll keep my codes to myself … Continue reading It’s been a minute …
Just might be what I was looking for …
A few months ago I removed my books from Google Play. Mostly because they were haranguing me about providing ID and wouldn't pay royalties until I did - my ID expired. I couldn't provide ID if I didn't have ID. But I do now. Yay for a 10-year passport. Since removing my books they emailed … Continue reading Just might be what I was looking for …
Blinded by Rainbows
It's been pouring with rain all day here. The type of rain that floods the yard and street. The kind of rain that saturates shoes within minutes. I didn't even get to the bus stop with dry feet. So that was it for me. I refuse to spend the day with wet cold feet. That … Continue reading Blinded by Rainbows
Lookin’ out my back door.
Quite the understatement really. I went down with the flu on Monday, which was and still is my week. Don't know why I expected to be better by now, clearly, I was optimistic. If only that worked. COVID was annoying but this is downright misery. Since getting COVID on May 5th, I have unwittingly opened … Continue reading Lookin’ out my back door.
How’s your weekend?
I'm currently listening to a 70's playlist on Spotify and drinking a Corona - with lemon because I'm out of limes. I've worked out what we're having for dinner. I fancied fish pie but Doris doesn't like it. Gosh, there's a surprise! 🙂 So we're having stuffed potatoes.Think about this ... I stuff potatoes with … Continue reading How’s your weekend?
The promised pictures:
Bet that tweaked a few weirdo's imaginations. In case you missed the Facebook post, Insta post, Twitter - many posts, here's the photos from yesterday's Mid Winter Secret Santa opening day at our place. FYI, not an IED. No one died. Also included is the playlist for the curious. Playlist first I think! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4IGegaZamH7fywxbVhHBD1?si=1b322cb37e4d4fc8 Bear … Continue reading The promised pictures:
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 …
