I've been around long enough to know that some people are Bad to the Bone. There is nothing redeeming about them at all. I've written a few characters like that over the years. I'm sure AD Owen liked puppies the way Cruella de Vil liked puppies. (Byte reference for those who don't know who Owen … Continue reading Bad to the Bone

Seems like the best title for the day. Not very inventive but let's not put too much pressure on 2021. It's the last day for the Smashwords Sale (I know it ends on Jan 1 but I think it actually ends on the 2nd for us in the Southern Hemisphere). Links for you: Byte Series … Continue reading Jan 1st, 2021

Big Sur?
So, the updates arrived for my MacBook the other day. Bit a pain in the arse as they needed 16 gig more than I had available ... cue much annoyance and deleting of four years worth of emails and whatnot. Who knew I hoarded emails? Me, I knew. Anyway, I hit the install button again … Continue reading Big Sur?
So long, Marianne
Pretty sure you all know that's a Leonard Cohen song. Feels like I've always listened to Leonard Cohen. Superman is a big fan. He and I went and saw Leonard Cohen together. It was our birthday present to each other the year we lost Wonder Woman. She was a fan too, in fact, his music … Continue reading So long, Marianne
Romeo and Juliet
Romeo and Juliet came on the radio this morning. I'd forgotten how much I love this song. How much I enjoy Dire Straits.It's been a shitty few days, weeks, months, okay the entire year. It's the same for everyone but it doesn't actually help much to know that, does it?Anyway, Vaporbyte launches soon. Sept 10. … Continue reading Romeo and Juliet
Living in a Ghost Town
Hey! I'm back. 🙂 Did ya miss me? (Actually laughing, I suspect no one noticed my absence.)Had a fabulous time down in the Marlborough Sounds with Admin Bex. Was great being there and just being.

So, My Knight and I are well aware that we're not the only ones out there who regularly travel 5000 plus km to be together. And how ever much it sucks ... and it … Continue reading Que Sera Sera

To that end, I am having a news and opinion-piece free weekend. No news. No bullshit opinion pieces from anyone. Here's a news flash for you ... … Continue reading Gutter Black
Miss You
Self-explanatory title/song ... it's been 7 mths since My Knight and I have been in the same physical space and we probably have another 3 to go but we'll get there, once Oz is at the same COVID free status as NZ. And we can travel again without the need for 14 days quarantine at … Continue reading Miss You
