Joining the 21st Century...

At long last, after much dithering I've decided to opt for broadband connection. This should take place over the next two weeks. Faster dowloads, quicker connection. Marvelous!

Random thought... I was reading the contents list on the side of the shower-gel tube today (as you do), when I noticed the stuff contains PEG - polyethyleneglycol. This waxy substance is also used by marine archaeologists to preserve ancient waterlogged timber. It makes you wonder...

Breaking news...

I've exchanged contracts with Liquid Silver Books for the next Mr. Grey novel, Spirit from the Sky, featuring sexy spook-hunters Martin Grey and Claudia Mackenzie. Stay tuned for further details...

Normal Service has been resumed...

The technical problem has been overcome and the interviews with Shara Lanel and Vanessa Hart are posted on my website. Check 'em out - if you can tear your eyes away from the Scottish butt below... ;)

Going Regimental...

It's been a busy old week - but a short one for the day job. It's the Easter four-day weekend here, and I'll have plenty of time to write - and to be on tenterhooks over the two book submissions pending approval from the publishers. They're not the first I've submitted by any means, but the waiting never gets easier...

I booked my flight to the USA on Tuesday, and I leave on the 28th June for Indiana. As part of the festivities I'll be off to a French-Indian Wars re-enactment weekend over in Bourbonnais, Il. where I may have the pleasure of wearing a kilt and firing a musket :)

Other than that, I'll be in and around Indianapolis, meeting and greeting friends and new acquaintances alike, drinking copious quantities of root beer and spending a lot of time and cash in bookstores. Maybe I'll see you there..?

Due to technical problems the interviews with Vanessa Hart and Shara Lanel will be delayed until further notice.

"Computers don't bounce when you throw them out the window." Sage advice given me by my old IT tutor.

Those nice folks at Liquid Silver have asked for the full M/s of my next Mr. Grey novel! Fingers crossed they like it.

Also, tomorrow sees two new guest interviewees on my Ajay's Q & A, those lovely people Vanessa Hart and Shara Lanel. C'mon over tomorrow and see what they have to say :)
