"It was imprudent of us, in the first place, to become authors. We could have become something regular, but we managed not to.
We were lucky, but we were also determined." Roy Blount Jr

"I don’t change the facts to enhance the drama. I think of it the other way round, the drama has got to fit the facts,
and it’s your job as a writer to find the shape in real life."
Hilary Mantel

Rosy & Fishy



Before coming to the lake cottage at the weekend, I cut lots and lots of roses to fill the place (leaving some behind to adorn the Lodge). Here are my arrangements, which have lasted quite a long time.

I had a lovely week at the Lodge, enjoyng roses and shuttling myself to various meetings. Now I'm having a lakeside week. The weekend was perfect...now a heat wave has descended. The mercury could reach 100 degrees in parts of the state tomorrow. The lake temperature has been too cold for swimming, but if the dire temperature predictions turn out to be correct, I might be joining Walter the Fish in the water!

Here he is, inviting me to jump in.



On this hot day, I'm working heatedly on eBook conversions and have commissioned cover artwork for the initial release. I've created a new Author Page on Facebook. If you click on the little Facebook badge on the right sidebar, you can "like" the author page. Not much happening on the page yet....
