Q&A: Laila Blake on Driftwood Deeds
It’s no secret that I have a serious soft spot for Laila Blake. As a consequence, it should come as no surprise that today, on the release day of Laila’s novella Driftwood Deeds, I am beaming with pride. Some authors just have that magic spark, that turn of the phrase, the right words to draw […]
Things I Did This Week #14
– Spent four days in a house in Phuket with a bunch of gay men. – Was very surprised by the fact that nothing untoward happened and I was in bed every day by midnight (no joke.) – Made them watch Miranda (they loved it.) – Added a good chunk of words to Summer’s End […]
The Hottest Women On My TV – Part 3
1. Melinda May Obviously, the biggest mistake the producers of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. made (apart from naming their show that) was not choosing Agent Melinda May as their main character. I tend to start snoozing every time Agent Coulson appears on my screen, only to be rudely but pleasantly awakened every time Melinda starts kicking […]
Happy birthday, Fool for Love
Time really does fly when you’re having fun. I was puttering around in my Amazon KDP account yesterday and my eye fell on the day I uploaded Fool for Love. That happened to be 19 November 2012. I had no way of knowing this at the time (all I knew was that I desperately wanted […]
Things I Did This Week #13
– Did a search on my blog and came to the horrific conclusion that I haven’t done one of these lists since March! – Realised consistency is not my strong suit (well, re-confirmed more like, because I already knew that, but sometimes, because of my lack of consistency, I tend to forget.) – Finished the […]
On typing ‘The End’
A quick note to those of you who have been following the progress of Summer’s End. Just before noon today, I typed ‘The End’. The first draft is now finished. It took a little bit longer than anticipated, but it was so satisfying to complete the story. The word count at the moment is just […]
Some other news
No writing today (rarely on Fridays). Instead of getting up early, I stayed in bed until 8, painfully digesting that bottle of wine I drank the night before (aka suffering from a well-deserved hangover). Then we went to our new office to take measurements before venturing to Ikea. We know what we want, but it […]
My Ten Day Challenge – Day 11
Last night, after I published my blog post, we got a call from our real estate agent to ask if we were available to check out a brand-new-on-the-market flat in the building next to ours. We were the first people to see it, we loved it, we said we wanted it and this morning we […]
My Ten Day Challenge – Day 10
I can’t call it a Ten Day Challenge without Day 10. So here it is. 😉 I started working on Summer’s End again this morning, after taking a delicious four-day break from it. And I was feeling it. I started at 8.30 (not so much a morning person when the wife is home) and wrote […]
