Seemed like a good title for a blog post ... not sure if it works but hey, you be the judge. Since I've been away taking very good care of #MyKnight while he recovers from a hip replacement, I've actually done a few things. I know, I was surprised too. For starters, ALL the Byte … Continue reading Dear Readers,

Everything should sparkle
Seriously, it should. Not just because I just saw a glitter helmet on the telly (watching American Pickers with My Knight). I've been a sparkle lover my whole life. And you all know the joy when my daughter told me I could have GLITTER on my book covers. 🙂 As it stands now, two of … Continue reading Everything should sparkle
Launch date and venue announcement!
Today I found out that the launch will be at Upper Hutt Central Library. Woo hoo! We have a little something special (and fun) planned for this launch but you'll have to come along to find out what that is. Wasn't sure if I'd be able to organize a launch this side of Christmas but … Continue reading Launch date and venue announcement!
“How do you start to write a story?”
Now there's a question and a half. It's something I'm asked fairly frequently and I still don't think I have particularly helpful answer, even after writing 16 novels and countless short stories. Yes, I said, 16. Four still sit on a flashdrive and remain hidden away from the world. Those four were the beginning; my … Continue reading “How do you start to write a story?”
It was Crashbyte …
This morning I opened a file called 'Crashbyte' - that's what Vaporbyte was always supposed to be called. Book 12: Crashbyte. Somewhere as I was following the story, (and it happened pretty fast - two chapters in) I realized Crashbyte wasn't going to be book 12. It may not ever be an anything. That's okay, … Continue reading It was Crashbyte …
Bear with …
Here are a few of the 15-sec videos made for the Byte Series ... YouTube seems to think they have all been uploaded, they have not. YouTube is kinda a dick sometimes.

Life versus writing
Funny how things change. Used to be writing that was my happy place. Now it's Perth. I have little time for writing and am struggling to find a reason to carve that time out. Finding writing time has been increasingly difficult for the last four years. The only real writing time I get is when … Continue reading Life versus writing

FYI the ENTIRE Byte Series is on sale - if you hop through the link you will notice that there are 11 books listed in … Continue reading July!!
My life is a book …
Seriously! Saw a text from TBH when I woke this morning about strange noises and something/one outside our house - in the front yard. She also said it sounded like something 'heavier than a bird' landed in the tree. The tree in question is a huge camellia tree, right outside my bedroom window. Yeah, I … Continue reading My life is a book …
Walking in sunshine
Stunning albeit cold day today. The walk to the bookshop was all sunshine and glorious. Don't mind cold starts when the day is lovely! So, what's been happening here? I have the proofs for snakebyte and the new version of Whispers in the Water. Whispers needs some tweaks. Which I knew and had already mostly … Continue reading Walking in sunshine
