Hello again,
It's been a while since I last posted, so here's a couple of things that I have been upto in the world of my writing.
Firstly and unfortunately all productivity on the next instalment of Snow Depth has come to a stop for the moment. The frame work of Gen's Tale is in place now but the mortar is taking a little bit of time to reveal itself. In light of this I have moved onto a new project called One Day.
Secondly, I light to take this post to discuss writing keyboards. Switch options, vintage and retro versus modern etc.
I have recently swapped my writing keyboard, following a long and pointless adventure but I have taken out my trusted ML4400 Cherry ML board. This keyboard has a micro form factor and feels very similar to the earlier laptop keyboards.
However, it is potentially just a little to small for me to work on comfortably at speed so after a little research I have managed to secure a Siig MiniTouch from the good old USA, it's not a 1903 but a 1948 version. Unsure yet if its carrying the White Alps keys or one of the many variants that it was built with. Either way the form factor looks a good size for working on and time will tell if it manages to increase my productivity.
Anyway thanks for reading, hope to post again soon.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all.

One Day Updates
1700 words, it's so good to be writing again. I just do not want to stop but sleep is calling. Maybe tonight I will not dream, here's hoping for a peaceful night after a evening of jotting demons down on paper (pc) maybe they are tired too.
Interesting turn of events began writing a new story and ended up writing book three of the snow depth trilogy. Funny how things work out somedays.

Watching - A great story
The man from earth, a truly brilliant film. It reminds me so much of twelve angry men and other thinking movies. Somedays people sat in a room talking can make the best entertainment.
"I don't believe you're mad but what you are saying is not true."
I have to use this line in the next meeting I go to.

Amazon promotion - Freebies
Hi again, well there is another free promotion now in affect on Amazon and Kindle. So if you have not read the first instalment of the snow depth trilogy and fancy giving it a go (be kind) then head to Amazon now.
For any first time readers, Hal's Tale is a small fantasy novel. War is building between two kingdoms, high up in the snow covered mountains, a princess is captured in the dead of night and only Hal and his brothers can rescue her.
The story is filled with witches, wizards, good magic, bad magic. Kings and princesses, dark nights and unconventional hero's. Yet most of all, Hal's tale is a story of true love.

Sunday morning
Well it's Sunday morning, I'm lying in bed thinking I could get up an undertake a little writing. However, in light of recent events the spark to
write or should I say, fix what I have already written is just not there.
It still amazes me that people are not as perceptive as they could be. That with every spoken word one should be evaluating the response and not just continue till the end.
Gen's Tale has all but ground to a halt. The structure is in place but the padding has not yet begun. As previously mentioned the last chapter of book three has also been written (Bare bones) so the end is set in stone so to speak.
Here's hoping the spark comes back soon.
On a different note, five days of free promotion is once again upon us. So if you have not read Hal's Tale yet and fancy giving it a go then watch this space because it will be free once again very soon.

Nothing new as of late
Sorry but nothing new as of late. Family, work and a hectic social schedule has burnt up nearly all my time as if late.
In light of this I have decided on a quick easy win. More to follow soon.

Progress Report
So work has been, well a little manic as of late.
So basically, there has been no progress made on either the re-work project or the latest instalment, Gen's Tale.
Drop back to see how we are getting on soon but for now and until work settles down, my writing will have to take a back seat.
