The latest scammy spammy emails arriving in force are "behind the scenes" emails. FFS. They're from "digital marketers" and they're wanting to put together 'behind the scenes' videos for authors. I'm not sure what these bots/people think goes on when authors are writing but I am sure that it would make a very boring video. … Continue reading Now I have another question:

New work is hard
Actually it's more, new characters are hard. It is a new work and all new characters and it isn't an easy thing to wrap my malfunctioning brain around. There is a huge temptation to grab a familiar face and drop them into the periphery just so I can get a better handle on what's happening. … Continue reading New work is hard
Night comes on …
It's been a week, a busy week! How is it only half way through? 🙂 So much to do and a lot of hurry up and wait. Leonard Cohen has featured prominently in my playlists this week ... as he does from time to time. Leonard Cohen songs even made it into the FBI-Byte Series … Continue reading Night comes on …
I asked ‘where to now?’ recently …
And the answer came from a mate in the form of a true story followed by a question. I read the story and thought it'd be a great story if it was fictionalised and ramped up a bit and some cool characters helped tell it. And I wasn't the only one who had that idea. … Continue reading I asked ‘where to now?’ recently …
Where to now?
This week feels a tad confused. My days are screwy. It'll even out. Meanwhile, I've had to move things around to make everything work. So everything is a day late! Anywho, that's not what this post is about. I have a question for Pages users. Have you tried 'Proofread'? If so, what did you think? … Continue reading Where to now?
You wouldn’t believe it …
Life has been crazy, you know that if you've been here longer than five minutes, with all the crazy I fudged an ISBN. I put it into D2D and it's already been used. It's mine so, I guess I put the wrong name next to it in the file! It's easy to do. I get … Continue reading You wouldn’t believe it …
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 …
Some days a title is just too hard.
It's true. Not a book title, those I enjoy coming up with. I'm talking about a blog post title. Today it's just too much. Anywho, onward. Because I did a quick print format for [Echo Mike Papa] yesterday, I thought maybe someone would be interested in how I do that and what I've learned over … Continue reading Some days a title is just too hard.
Writer Trench Coat Syndrome.
If you've written a book then you know once you write The End a very odd thing happens in your brain. I thought I might not be the only person who would benefit from a little look at Writer Trench Coat Syndrome. (Bear with this is my 26th go-round with the oddness that happens once … Continue reading Writer Trench Coat Syndrome.
The End.
And just like that another Veronica Tracey Spy/PI book exists.
