I've just sat down. Potentially I could spend the next two hours writing. We'll see.How was your Monday?Mine looked, and still looks in some regards, like this:I stumbled out of bed to let the dog out, then back in, and then feed the beasts, and made coffee. While my coffee was brewing I opened all … Continue reading A day in the life …

It’s all fun and games …
... until your phone won't charge. No fun to be had then. I can't afford to replace it at the moment so all my fingers are crossed that turning it off and back on works! 🙂 I know it's been misbehaving and not allowing calls through at times - of course I don't know it's … Continue reading It’s all fun and games …
Author Interrogations 2025
Hello out there,I'm going to run a new season of author interrogations with all new questions from mid-May 2025. (If I get enough hands in the air.)So, if you're an author (don't care what your genre is, you do not have to be a crime writer) and you'd like to take part in the 2025 … Continue reading Author Interrogations 2025
Born this way.
I've always enjoyed Lady Gaga, so you can thank her for the title of today's ramblings. Born this way was the title of a chapter in Qubyte. Worked then and it works today. 🙂 This week is busy and also there have been some fun things happen. [Nothing happens here] is now an audio book … Continue reading Born this way.
Hey Hey …
I am going to have to get my arse into gear very shortly and get on with [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra]. I have become entirely too slack. It's not like I haven't written anything. I did finish a short for an anthology and it is a Ronnie Tracey story. The thing I'm not doing though is … Continue reading Hey Hey …
A birthday and a spy story …
Freda is 26. Unbelievable but it's true.I finished the short story I was writing for the LA Anthology! Hooray. Very much enjoyed taking Ronnie and putting her in a foreign city. The story came in a little under 7K, so a lot longer than I envisaged when I started it. I know I could've taken … Continue reading A birthday and a spy story …
The things you find …
I was on Facebook (imagine?) and I was reading a post (shocking, I know). Anywho, it was a Spybrary post that caught my attention. (I think it was anyway.) I followed a link and was reading about various spy book series and I thought, wouldn't it be fun if Ronnie was there? Guys ... Ronnie … Continue reading The things you find …
Don’t rock the boat …
Or do. It's entirely up to you. I was thinking about the new Veronica Tracey Spy/PI story that partly exists. There is definitely 'boat rocking' in that story. Ronnie isn't one for calm waters, too boring. If I don't sit my arse down and get on with it though, that story will never completely exist. … Continue reading Don’t rock the boat …
Don’t take it for granted.
What is it? I hear you ask. It is, anything and everything, or nothing. That depends on you. The youngest child suggested an idea for a novella today. (Yes, the youngest child is the one who suggested the Fates Entwined novellas, if you recall she hasn't read those yet. Mostly because ME/CFS renders words to … Continue reading Don’t take it for granted.
It might be summer.
Today might be summer. Can't vouch for tomorrow and it definitely was not summer yesterday. Such fun. Every day we play 'guess the season' in the valley. In other news, the first round of edits are done. Now I know why my lovely editor refers to [IRL] as 'the one with all the hyphens'. I … Continue reading It might be summer.
