Friday. Been a good week. Miss My Knight a lot (what's new?) and it feels like we're due some face-to-face time instead of FaceTime. Writing wise ... heard back from the first 3 Beta readers - they're people who have read the Byte Series and who understand the characters and relationships, and all the inn … Continue reading Roll Me Away

It’s all over bar the shouting
Or in this case the reading, tweaking, reading, muttering to ones self things along the lines of: "What the hell was I thinking?" "Where'd you come from?" "Yep, I like that." "Holy MF, that cannot live there!" ... once that's over, Vaporbyte will be in better shape to meet my first two beta readers. When … Continue reading It’s all over bar the shouting
Life, writing, and whatnot
Morning all, It's Friday! Hooray. This evening is the beginning of a 3 day writing weekend. Such joy. Be more joy if I finish reading today, so, fingers crossed. I'm heading toward the end of Vaporbyte, still quite tempted to change the name because Vaporware/Vaporbyte, it amuses me to change the name at this stage. … Continue reading Life, writing, and whatnot
Friday the 13th
A massive thank you to all the wonderful people who remembered my birthday yesterday (and today for those in the other half of the world).

Dear Readers,
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,
What life’s all about …
Obviously, I dunno what life is all about for you, but for me, it's about stories. Gathering stories. And how does one gather stories? Well, by doing shit. By taking chances (risks if you will), but really it's about doing shit. Just do something. Don't sit there like my Nana did for fifty-seven years and … Continue reading What life’s all about …
Goodbye Missy
