THRILL SEEKERS EXCERPT ONLINE!

Hi everyone. I’ve had the okay from Ransom to post a chapter from Thrill Seekers . I’ve chosen chapter two, “Voices”  as it best illustrates the themes of the whole novella. Simply click on on “Stories” under the menu heading and it should come up. It comes with an adults only rating. Hope you like it.

Other news is that Ransomhas been concentrating on generating sales for the series (a very good thing) so the schedule has been put back a bit (not such a good thing). If you want to make a new bet for November sometime you’re welcome. I’ve also heard from the agent who is looking at my Cambodian novel but she too is snowed under and hasn’t had time to read it as yet. Good news is she’s also interested in having a look at the Grief book.

Last day of school holidays so back to the grindstone – with joy! – tomorrow.

Sometimes writing can be a real balancing act. Especially on school holidays!

Only four more sleeps till I have my writing time and space back.

Can anyone out there manage to get anything done while the kids are home? My friend Helena has been getting up at four in the morning, in winter, in the dark, in Armidale (bloody freezing!) just to get some writing done.

She’s a woman of steel and I like my bed too much. Instead I make long elaborate plans in my head and start sketching out things I will write when the holidays are over. Sometimes it works but sometimes I just get grouchy with a head full of writing that needs to get out.
