Today started rough. Last night was a disaster, I got bugger all sleep. That doesn't not make for a fun day, I can assure you. AND THEN ... I took the wrong glasses with me to work. The lighting in the bookshop fucks my migraine brain big time, there is only so much prevention medication … Continue reading One step closer.
Thriller
And so it goes …
January is marching on and I'm pretty well over it already. Probably not the greatest start to 2022 to be already over the year. But that's how it is. I could lie and say how glorious the new year is, but it fucking isn't. Never the less good stuff is happening and life moves on. … Continue reading And so it goes …
Yellowstone
I just watched the season four finale, I think I'm going to need a minute. That was epic television. Not sure how to go from that to regular programming. It was a welcome distraction from life. 🙂 News today said the US recorded over 1 million COVID cases in a single day. I find it … Continue reading Yellowstone
Thank you for loving me.
https://youtu.be/h6-Y1WIkaYY Yes, I know I usually add the video at the end, but this song I particularly like and it says most of what I want to say, to the people in my life who show up when I need them. It's New Years Eve.I have to say this year was hugely better than 2020. … Continue reading Thank you for loving me.
Who shot Crockett?
🙂 Did anyone shoot Crockett? You'll find out when [Leave a message] launches around about the middle of 2022. If he survives without a scratch I'll be very surprised. So will you now. 🙂 Anywho, I had a dream last night that wouldn't quit. I woke at one point to turn the fan off and … Continue reading Who shot Crockett?
Christmas is over.
In some ways, I'm glad to see the back of it for another year. It's a day I don't particularly enjoy. There's a lot of cooking and cleaning involved, and then a lot of clean-up. I enjoy having the kids home, that bit is pretty awesome but the rest of it is long and tiring. … Continue reading Christmas is over.
And It Stoned Me.
Thanks for the song Van Morrison. Hadn't heard that one in a while. It's a beautiful day here today. Don't want to say that too loud in case the rain comes back, we are over it! Today is a proper summer day, the second consecutive one.It's a writing day for me. But before I disappear … Continue reading And It Stoned Me.
I Walk The Line
Thanks to Johnny Cash for the title, but, I think we all know I don't walk the line ... I repel over that thing at every opportunity. It's in my genes. I finished teaching for the year. It was fun, as always. I very much hope my students go on and write amazing crime novels. … Continue reading I Walk The Line
Listen to the music.
I know, I've been quiet. Actually, I haven't been quiet but I've been quiet here. It's a busy nineteen days - I have blogged in that time just not much. Anywho, today I was teaching in the big city. I do enjoy it. Today's topics were description, dialogue, and research. They do kinda go together … Continue reading Listen to the music.
Tuesday.
Yes, it's Tuesday. It's been busy here. No, I've been busy. Not so much the girls. :)Saturday's Crime Writing Session was mostly about characters (also POV and openings), Creating people to populate a novel is a big topic. I fired off quite a few PDF's on Sunday evening, to my students. I felt bad about … Continue reading Tuesday.
