Whee! An Update.

So, I updated my website...and the blog and stuff to match.  Wasn't digging the red, feels like the blues match my covers and overall personality better, so...yay!  I like it.  Hopefully you guys will too.

So...Book Four of the Olsson's Pass Series is on hiatus at the moment.  It wasn't coalescing in my brain the way I wanted to, so I've put it down for a moment.  Plus, it seems there's something of a diminishing returns thing going on with series' in general, so...there's that, too.  And I haven't got the money for proper marketing right now.

End result...I'm doing a standalone!  Signed up for CampNano again...and again, am very much behind.  I can't seem to sit down long enough to do more than 1000 words at at time these days, for various reasons.  Maybe I left too much time for my Rest After Release thing, but it seems like every time I sit down to write I either procrastinate or get dragged back out into the real world to deal with stuff.  Laundry, scraped knees, kid who won't nap because they've taken all of their clothes and diaper off and are now cold and standing in a puddle... the usual, really.  (18 month old.  Gonna start on the road to potty training soon.  I'm really looking forward to the time when I can cancel the diaper subscription off Amazon).

Might just have to start getting up before the kids again.  Or at all.  If that's even possible, since they get up at ungodly hours (ie: 7 am).

As for the standalone, I'm 8000 words into what will possibly be in the neighbourhood of 70k, so that might push my release date back again...I need to do some more proper planning.  And figure out another giveaway...all that fun stuff.  Gotta write more, I'm about three days behind...or more.  Like 10k behind where I should be...yaaaaay.

Anyway: Read my books!  They're on Amazon.  And in a month or so will be on everything else.

Woo!

Terrible Minds Flash Fiction Challenge - Strange Photos

Thought I'd have a go at one of these.   Challenge was to search "Strange Photos" and pick one, write 1000 (or 1146, in this case) or so words of whatever comes to mind because of it.  My dip into the 'strange photos' section of Google Images dumped me right in the lap of the Merrilyn Cryptid Museum  which is full of the apparently re-discovered remains of various mythological creatures, all preserved and displayed all scientific and stuff. Anyway, here is... dun dun dun... The Collector Photo Credit: Alex CF 2016 In the basement, the boxes lie. A rustling of parchment.  Flicker of the gas lamps.  Scratching of nib against paper.  But otherwise, silence.  And a forest of boxes. The man at the desk put down his pen and blotted the ink.  He surveyed his handiwork, double checking for mistakes.  There were none, so he spread a layer of paste in the appropriate space and pressed the label into it: Homomimus ...

A New Store - And Some Other Things

So.  Updates.  Yay. The elder two kids are outside, in splash-pants and rain coats.  It's not raining (it's actually supposed to snow later, got a storm warning and everything.  Yay for March in the mountains.), but everything is wet as hell on account of the snow finally melting.  It also smells of camping because there's a fire going near by. ...I want to go camping so bad, you have no idea... Anyway - I started a Cafe Press shop .  It's named after my fantastically non-witty blog because I couldn't think of anything else, It also hasn't got much in there right now (and what there is is kinda cheesy), but I figured...what the hell.  Someday, someone might want a shirt that relates to my books/website/brand thing I'm trying to build for myself.  Or a stainless steel water bottle.  Or an interesting sicker.  Someone like...well, me. And maybe my mum. Or maybe, someday, one of you guys.  One can hope. Plus, I'm thinking o...
