I’ve been getting lots of people asking me, “How can I buy Surprise!” ? That question is more suited to a “Surprise! – How you can buy a copy” post which I’m not doing now. The only reason being is I’m still finalising something pretty important behind the scenes here on that subject and I…
As I write this, my son is throwing an almighty tantrum on the floor. This is after a brief intermission of sleep. Before that, he was in the exact same position, limbs flailing. Ah, wow, just then he tried to throw my laptop across the room. Right, that’s it, I’d best be off. It’s one thing…

Yesterday afternoon I got a package delivered to my door. Two advance copies of Surprise! I wasn’t expecting it, so it was a nice surprise (boom-tish!) It feels surreal, I must say.

Remember Ivy? Well, one petition and over a thousand signatures later, she got permission to receive the treatment she requires.

The following is taken from the original petition post at Sleepless Nights: Ivy is beautiful and Ivy is…
The kids and I are sick. We all went off to the doctors this morning where we got the diagnosis of, “You’ve got The Flu. In captial letters. The nasty one.” The doctor then leaned closer and said quite seriously, “The Flu people can die from.” I’ve never felt so miserable in my life. So…

Here you go, guys. If you’ve got a spare 12 minutes or so, enjoy. The first video is about writing and blogging. Or writing vs blogging, as the case may be and often is. The second video focuses more on my upcoming book Surprise! At the end of my session I did do a reading…
I feel a bit like I’m treading mud here today. Lots going on, much of which I can’t yet talk about, and I’d love to, and I can’t post the video from last night because I have no skillz in editing it enough so it can be uploaded to YouTube. So I feel rather muzzled,…
