There's been a lot of writing happening here over the last few weeks. So much so that this new book will be a complete "first draft" sometime in October. I was aiming for late November. It's gone places I didn't think it would. There is more than one surprise in this story. I love when … Continue reading The Tide Is High

Do you ever?
Do you ever check which country visitors to your website are from? I do it everyday. Depending on the country my mouth will engage and loudly say, "Well you can fuck off." Certain countries are a precursors to bad shit going down. How's that for a generalisation?Usually if I see a particular country lurking on … Continue reading Do you ever?
No Expectations
Thanks to The Rolling Stones for the blog title. I'll put the album in at the end: Beggars Banquet. Yesterday I felt the need to write. So that was good. Happening a lot these days. I'm expecting that I'll be writing again later today. [Foxtrot Mike Lima] is coming along. There were three false chapter … Continue reading No Expectations
Blue Moon
We had a blue moon. A super blue moon. Seems like every month there is a new wonderful named super moon. Pretty sure no one cared if the moon had names until recently. That's fine. Us witches are aware of the different moons and always have been. The moon is important. And a super moon, … Continue reading Blue Moon
Don’t you remember?
I'm quite focused on writing at the moment. My brain is starting to work at its normal pace, there are a lot of balls in the air and no notes to keep me on track. Why'? Because it happened suddenly. The notes, scenes, I'd hand written are no longer relevant. It's not what I thought … Continue reading Don’t you remember?
When will you be mine?

Has a little to do with foreshadowing but not what anyone would expect. Anywho, I'm going to see how far it goes and what happens. This is … Continue reading When will you be mine?

What a weekend!
It's a fabulous weekend, bit of a long weekend in actual fact. My best friend arrived on Thursday and we've had a marvellous time. Friday was the official launch of [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot], very much hoping our magnificent library staff got some good photos because I mostly forgot. Completely forgot to get a photo of … Continue reading What a weekend!
Moody blue …
No secret that I love listening to Elvis. Years ago I had Elvis's blue album. An actual blue record. Fabulous! Anywho, today I need to seriously think about writing my speech/talking points for the [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] launch at Upper Hutt Library on August 4th, 6PM. Be there or be square. 🙂 Turns out Ronnie's … Continue reading Moody blue …
The things my kids do:
Last week my youngest son (who is about to be an age that doesn't make him very young at all) was playing with ChatGPT after I'd shared some news.This is the result of Josh's tinkering. I don't know exactly what his prompt was and ChatGPT consistently wants to say my Byte Series is about hackers … Continue reading The things my kids do:
