Yep, [Foxtrot Mike Lima] is closing in on the finish line. Looks like a finished first draft is going to be this week not the end of October at all. Definitely coming in well before my original thoughts of late November. Joyful! I am very much enjoying writing this book.I have said that for every … Continue reading Nearly there!

80k and there’s more to come!
At the beginning of the year I did not think I'd be able to launch [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] in August let alone write [Foxtrot Mike Lima]. Thankfully with excellent care from Habit Health I did launch [WTF] and I did start writing [FML] ... early on it was in very carefully managed blocks of a … Continue reading 80k and there’s more to come!
When the germs get you …
Yesterday I drank so many cups of tea I was beginning to feel waterlogged. This morning I'm on my second pot of plunger coffee because I cannot face anymore tea. It's very rare for me to drink this much coffee. Good indication that the germs Freda brought into the house have won. I shall keep … Continue reading When the germs get you …
The Tide Is High
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
What ever I said …
The last few days have been intense writing days. Almost as intense as the wind storm yesterday and last night, it took out power in various places throughout the region. Great fun. Discovered I have no candles, so, we shall go candle shopping. Weird that I don't have any. Whatever. I'll get some so we … Continue reading What ever I said …

The notes, scenes, I'd hand written are no longer relevant. It's not what I thought … Continue reading Don’t you remember?
What’s going on?
If you're like me you have no fucking clue. Just out here winging and hoping for the best. That is in fact how I write. Could be worse, I could be winging it with a non-functioning brain. :)It appears that some people are.This morning was all about adverbs, adjectives, passive and active sentences, loglines, and … Continue reading What’s going on?
When will you be mine?
Last night was another crappy nights sleep but while I was not sleeping I discovered a story thread (in my mind) that I think I'm going to explore. 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?
Just give me a reason …
Hey, how are ya?Sincerely hoping you said good or fine or something positive. 🙂 I just got tagged in an article/story/whatever about me. It never gets old. You might think so shortly though because the link is going EVERYWHERE. I kid you not!When people talk about me, I find it quite strange because their rendition … Continue reading Just give me a reason …

I'm not ready for August. Wasn't it just yesterday that it was March? Wasn't it?Where has the time gone?Why is it moving so fast?I need to let that go. It's book launch event week. It is EVENT WEEK. I am far too calm this morning for day two of launch week. I managed to wrestle … Continue reading August! Already!
