April* Wrap-up
*and late March… It feels like it’s been a while since I last posted here. I’ve been very busy with various things, unfortunately not many of them were writing related.

I’ve seen a meme a few times in the last couple of days that says something like: ‘I don’t want a new year, I’d like a gently used year. Perhaps 2015?’ It does feel like everything has gone to shit lately, the US looks about ready to fall over, and here in Australia it’s not…

It’s been a year: 2024 wrap up
So as has been my style for the last couple of years, my last blog post for the year is a revision of my goals from the last twelve months. In my post in January I had this list of goals for 2024. I’m very pleased to say that I have achieved all of them,…
