Thursday 4 December 2025: Newsletter is out
This post also appears on Patreon. I didn’t get around to writing the micro-fiction short story on Tuesday for this month’s 12 stories in 12 months, but I didn’t beat…
Thursday 27 November 2025: Editing
I refused to be beaten on Tuesday and I took the editing I hadn’t done during the day into the living room to do during the evening. I’d had my…
Wednesday 26 November 2025: Posh ice cream
And just like that, this is the last-but-one blog post for November. The day after tomorrow is the wrap-up and then we’ll be into the last month of the year…
Tuesday 25 November 2025: All quiet in the mad house
The mad house seems to be settling down a bit now, after a few fraught weeks. Then it will all start up again as soon as my light therapy treatments…
Monday 24 November 2025: It rained. A lot.
We had a very good night on Thursday. Dogs were fed at about 10:30pm, which meant they both slept right through. Yay! They were up with the poet, who fed…
Friday 21 November 2025: More snow!
I was scrolling through Facebook over my dirty cuppa yesterday morning when I saw a post from the Doncaster Free Press saying it was snowing across Doncaster ‘this morning’. I…
Thursday 20 November 2025: Snow!
I’ve got out of the habit of writing today’s blog post during the previous day and scheduling it to post at 8am. I suppose the obvious reason for this is…
Tuesday 18 November 2025: Back to the beginning
On Saturday I had to work. I still had that editing job to do and send off to be set and I wanted it off my desk sooner rather than…
Monday 17 November 2025: Squally weather
Storm Claudia arrived on Friday in the relatively early hours. I knew there was a storm brewing out at sea, but I didn’t know it was expected to make landfall….
Friday 14 November 2025: More editing
And here we are, Friday again. Already mid-November (almost). Christmas isn’t far away. Before we know it, it’ll be next year! Lazy late start yesterday. Pup very kindly didn’t wake…
Wednesday 12 November 2025: More covers work
Yesterday morning began, bright and early again, with me first letting the puppy out and then feeding them both about an hour later. I had my dirty cuppa and read…
Tuesday 11 November 2025: Playing with images
Last week I ordered a food and allergies diary in a bid to see if there’s a pattern with my skin. That arrived on Friday, and I started it yesterday…
Monday 10 November 2025: Editing
I forgot to pre-write the blog on Friday again. Tut, tut. Not a lot happened…well, I was very busy, but it was all the same kind of thing. Editing, pet…
Friday 7 November 2025: A shiny new fence
And here we are. Friday again already… Yesterday began rather like the day before had, with me making corrections to the blog post over a dirty cuppa on my mobile…
Thursday 6 November 2025: New schedule begins
Last job of the day on Tuesday was supposed to be schedule work. Then I remembered yesterday’s entry for 12 stories in 12 months. It’s rare I get this done…
Wednesday 5 November 2025: Bonfire Night!
I love Bonfire Night. It’s one of my favourite times of the year. I love the bonfires, the fireworks, the sparklers, the hot dogs, the jacket potatoes, the smell of…
Thursday 30 October 2025: Back to work
I thought I’d make a start on catching up with the blogs again just in time for the wrap-up and month ahead posts tomorrow and on Monday. I don’t have…
Tuesday 28 October 2025: Two become four
One of the reasons I’ve been stupidly busy just lately, and a tad secretive (hate to jinx anything), is because last week we became the proud humans of not 1…
Wednesday 19 June 2024: Busy weekend #2
Sunday was Father’s Day and I had up to 2 stories to write and a blog post. One of the stories, THE KNIGHT OF WANDS, had to be in by…
