I am writing [Indigo Delta Kilo]. While I was walking home in the rain this morning, I was thinking about the story. It occurred to me that I needed to create some tech. (I know, again!) The little tiny device that is in use in the story isn't alone. It's part of something much bigger … Continue reading Writing …

Trees, drains, & fun times.
Since becoming a home owner in late March - it's been busy here. First were the sewer drain issues. Two weeks after moving in we discovered we needed all the sewer drains replaced. Jeremy (from Jason Brown) bought us a few months by pulling metres of roots out of the pipes. [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra] launched … Continue reading Trees, drains, & fun times.
Long walk off a short plank:
Quite pleased with the direction of [Indigo Delta Kilo] at this point. I can see the next few scenes (as video in my brain as usual) so that's good. The title of this post came about because Crockett said it and I haven't heard that phrase for a long time. Probably the last time I … Continue reading Long walk off a short plank:
If you could read my mind …
You’d be terrified if someone could read your mind. You’d be terrified if you read mine.Not because of the secrets, though, let’s be honest, there are a few, but because of the sheer chaos of it.Half-formed thoughts. Fragments. Scenes with no beginning. Dialogue with no context. It would look like nonsense. And yet … somewhere in … Continue reading If you could read my mind …
[Indigo Delta Kilo]
Last year I wrote two novels. [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra] and [Echo Mike Papa]. Really, I could've taken this year off and launched [Echo Mike Papa] next year. Am I? Hell no.I started a joint project earlier this year then got myself stuck with some rather tricky bomb details for a very large bomb. It's the … Continue reading [Indigo Delta Kilo]
Spy thrillers with humour and heart.
It turns out I am writing the 9th Veronica Tracey Spy/PI novel. I thought maybe I'd take a break and work on something else. I did try. Apparently dropping Ronnie on the side of the road so I can work on a different thing is just as difficult as dropping Ellie Conway off somewhere. We … Continue reading Spy thrillers with humour and heart.
The things we do.
Every day we do things. Things we don't even think about. We just do them. They're not usually a conscious thought, but learned or repetitive behaviours. Cleaning your teeth for example. It's second nature to most of us because we were conditioned to clean our teeth every day.I was thinking today about the frailty of … Continue reading The things we do.
March?
it doesn’t seem like it should be March yet! Summer never happened and then wham it was autumn/winter. Such is life these days.Anyway, we can’t change the date or the weather, may as well get used to it being fucky. There are a few things coming up over the next five weeks to keep me … Continue reading March?
It’s all coming together now:
The stress and craziness that's been my life from July 7th - is almost over. By the end of this month I will be able to relax and breathe. Superman would be able to as well, if he knew where he was and what had to happen to keep him safe. He doesn't. He never … Continue reading It’s all coming together now:
As long as the file …
I know, odd title. It really goes like this: As long as the file is open I'm going to continue fucking with it. And it's true. I will. If I shut it, I won't. 🙂 The [Echo Mike Papa] file feels like it has been open for months. I have shut it a few times … Continue reading As long as the file …
