Yep. Another year is coming to a close. It feels a little strange with it being in the middle of the week. Oh well. I'm not going to recap or list what I've achieved this year. To be honest, I can't be bothered. Lol. I did a LOT. Lots of eBooks released, my first print rele…

Yep. How was your Christmas break? I hope you all had a great and relaxing time. :) We had a great 4-day weekend together, but it wasn't relaxing. Lol. Sure, Christmas Day was a lovely and quiet day. We had a lovely lamb roast, went for a nice relaxing walk and just hung out. It…

I'm a huge Sookie Stackhouse fan. I love the books, the characters, and the awesome world Charlaine Harris has created. So, of course I was interested in watching TRUE BLOOD . And I wasn't disappointed. It's an amazing thing to watch a show about a book series that unt…

Well, the school holidays have officially arrived. My daughter's home, and she's already got plans for the two of us. I told her that as long as I could squeeze in some writing time during the day, that was fine. Except, it becomes a bit of a pain when she keeps cutting into my…

I'm a little tired today, didn't get as much sleep as I was hoping for. It's my daughter's last day of school. When I pick her up at 3:25PM, she'll be on school holidays and doesn't return until late January. :/ She's really excited about it, and to be ho…

Yep. We're almost at Christmas, aren't we? I really enjoy the festive season, but you know what I don't like? Once it's over. Not sure why, but it usually feels almost anticlimactic. :/ Anyway. The weekend was great! I actually got a chance to grab my notebook and st…

Well, I thought I'd squeeze in a blog entry before sitting down to get some more revision done. I didn't do any yesterday during the day because I spent it with my daughter. It was actually a really nice day. We went to see her get a school medal during this year's Presentati…

Yikes! Where did the day go? It was a nice one, and it can only get better since the weekend's around the corner. Cool. In spite of it being Friday, I've actually gotten a bunch of research and note-taking done. There were so many things in my head when I went for a walk thi…

You know, I went to the bookstore this morning with $100. I came back with $10 and some change. I did tell the hubby it would happen. Lol. Luckily, I try to stick to my monthly budget as much as I can. Still, they were 5 books that I've been waiting for and can't wait to re…

And I'm kinda having a hard time figuring out how we got here so quick. Lol. I suppose that if I sit down and think back over the past year, I'll realise that time has gone by at a nice, steady pace. Maybe. Anyway. Since it's the first of the month, I've made a plan …

It's not raining stars here in Sydney, but it is raining. Actually, it's been raining pretty much all day. It usually bugs me. A lot. But to be honest, today I don't mind. I got to go for my two daily walks without having to deal with it, so that's fine. I just hope…

Yep. This is my third successful attempt at NaNoWriMo. Yay! Technically, I reached the 50k mark on Monday night. Then yesterday, I got the first draft finished. Today, I sat down with lappy and re-read the last two chapters I wrote. Before going to bed last night, I remembered two things …

It's supposed to be spring! Hell, we're about a week from summer and the weather is too cold. It's constantly raining, and I even saw on the news that it's snowing somewhere in NSW. Really, that's WTF? territory. I'm not asking for much. I'd just like eac…

In the alleys of the decrepit Boston neighborhood known as the Weird, fairy prostitutes are turning up dead. The crime scenes show signs of residual magic, but the Guild, which polices the fey, has more "important" crimes to investigate and dumps the case on human law enforceme…

It wasn't raining yet when I went for a walk this morning, and the kitty I ran into was a lot smaller than the one in the picture, but this morning I met up with a cute cat. It's one that I always run into. She's a sweet little thing - according to her owner, she recently h…

Everything has a cost. And every act of magic exacts a price from its user--maybe a two-day migraine, or losing the memory of your first kiss. But some people want to use magic without paying, and they offload the cost onto an innocent. When that happens, it falls to a Hound to identify t…

So, is everyone still enjoying SUPERNATURAL? I know I am. : ) I'm looking forward to seeing what the angels do about this girl who can hear their frequency. One thing I've always enjoyed about angels during my research, is how easily they can be portrayed as something other th…

... and I'm almost scared to get stuck into it. Lol. After last week's shocker, who can blame me? :) Anyway. It's Monday and I've already added some words to my NaNo story. I added about 2k and decided to take a break so that the lappy can recharge a little before I hi…

Yep. Definitely. This week has been a little up-and-down for me. Not a very comfy week to embark on writing a new novel while participating in NaNoWriMo . :/ I haven't done any reading. Although I did start researching a new novel idea yesterday. I think it's goin…

Yep. They do. The weekend was great. I had a great time with my hubby and daughter watching a few things, going for walks, and ducking into a few places. It was cool. I even managed to squeeze in the first round of edits for another one of my upcoming CP releases, THE CAT'S CHARM.…
