I was in the Dolly Peel the other day, having a drink or two with a couple of friends. Like me, Trevor the manager is a Man United fan, and soon the conversation got around to new signings, leavers and the new season. Posh and Becks' new arrival also entered the discussions: Harper Seven is the little girl's name. Of course, we went around the houses, trying to work out which way and what, but in the end Trevor summed it up best: "I suppose it's better than 'Quarter To Eight!' "
Brought the house down, I can tell you!

Suit hunting
I'll be looking at new suits, soon, as a good friend of mine is getting married on the 30th. I guess I should have been married twice, but both times the relationship fizzled out. Still, it leaves me free to make the mistake once lol I'll have moved house and written a lot of stuff by then. Hopefully, this will be a more permanent move and one which allows me to write with more freedom in my head.
I like weddings. It means there's love in the air and happiness, too. Can't have enough of that!

The Big Push
No, I haven't left work again! The urge to write is taking me over. I'm looking at stuff and seeing how it feels. Over the next two weeks, and into the two weeks off I've got coming up, I'll be exploring more of this new world I've created.
It's not the writing of it that bothers me, it's the storyline. I need to make sure the story is interesting enough and asks big questions of the hero and his friends. The reader has got to want to know more and to keep turning the page. Each chapter ending must entice the reader into the next chapter. I mustn't disappoint.
I like the title of the third book, and its BIG IDEA makes me believe there might even be a fourth. Hmmm, gotta stop getting ahead of myself. But at least all this means I'm full of ideas at this moment. A good feeling to have!

Mobile Homes
Noel the Ultimate Proofreader has got a new mobile phone. He tested it out on me today. One day, a thought will throw up a screen and your intended convo partner will appear in front of you like magic. A hologram, perhaps.
