Well readers, it’s been about a week since my last post. The writing is going well. Now have 8,000 words done on my current project, but even better I’ve come up with what I think is a good ending that will tie everything in together. Just a matter of getting down to it now.
I am finding it a joy to write though and if I cut down the vodka, hopefully I’ll finish it by the end of the year.
Sold another few books this week too which is always a plus. I’m cognisant though that my marketing strategy has to vastly improve if I’m ever going to get anywhere. Another small step in that direction will be setting up a facebook page for my writing. Please like and share!
I may even run an advertising campaign at some point. If only I had more time lol
I reckon everybody in Ireland is aware that we’re having a very mild winter and that at least some of the days almost feel like Spring. Never before have I seen such little frost by this time of year. I do see there is a apparently a threat of snow towards the end of the month but what an obvious sign of climate change, right?
Maybe, but Germany is having it’s coldest winter in 30 years. The army has just been called in. Similarly large parts of North America are experiencing bitter cold. I do believe in climate change but maybe this time, we’re just being lucky.
Some newspapers are reporting that there may be basic life on a planet just 6 light years away although it would exist similarly to life that might exist in Europa relying on heat from the core of the planet. I’ll get excited if they have spaceships or Stargates.
About to watch the finale to House of Cards. In my opinion it misses Francis Underwood. It is of course perfectly fine that there is a female president, (I hope to see a real one) but her feminist zeal feels manufactured from an otherwise devious, evil character.
