Another slow news day in Jackie land. Or should I say another day of stressing out about the NES (Never Ending Story). I should be consoling myself with another WIP but that well seems to have dried up. I’ve hit the wall in other words. And as such, the question needs to be asked – … Continue reading “One Percent”

The Never Ending Story
It would have been nice to start the weekend off with some news – but I don’t have any news. Sigh. I guess me having to update the synopsis has put a spanner in the works. I was really, really hoping that it wouldn’t but maybe the day she’d set aside for my partial was … Continue reading “The Never Ending Story”
Post Birthday Blues
Took a short blog hiatus over the weekend. Had a fantastic birthday where Dr Jax whisked me away to our wonderful capital city – Wellington – for a weekend of a swish hotel, fine champagne, nice food and, best of all, no kids! My birthday present was a lovely bit of bling, something that surprised … Continue reading “Post Birthday Blues”
More About the Non-Sassiness of My Heroine
Have had a little writing hiatus over the past week or two. Actually, when I say writing hiatus I actually mean writing sulk. I went on strike in other words. Not that anyone except me was affected and certainly no one noticed. So yeah, my strike was very effective. Not. Still, it did do me … Continue reading “More About the Non-Sassiness of My Heroine”
Nothing to Say
I keep delaying my posts in the hope that I have something to tell you. But I have nothing to tell you. So to keep me going and to keep the crows at bay, here is Jean Claude Van Damme with my own personal mantra. Maybe it’ll be this week.
Jackie Ashenden and the Inbox of Doom
After nearly two weeks of waiting by the Inbox of Doom, nothing. I was kind of hoping not to post until I had news to relate but, sadly, I have no news to relate. No boulders falling from the sky. No snakes. No flaming arrows flying at my head. No jewels waiting on the head … Continue reading “Jackie Ashenden and the Inbox of Doom”
So What Do I Do Now?
Okay, so here I am, still waiting. No drama though. In many ways still waiting is good. Everything is still a possibility, nothing has been rejected. Yet. Groan. My only problem is feeling sick every morning as the Inbox of Doom fills up with emails.Anyway, in order to help the NTAI along a little, I’ve … Continue reading “So What Do I Do Now?”
Vent of the Month Plus the Adventures of Hoo the Incredible Blue Octopus
I’m trying to get into writing my Naughty Frenchman but I have to say, I’m having a ‘what’s the point’ week. The waiting is killing me – it always does – and even though I have lots of stories in the works, I’m feeling a bit directionless. I always get a bit like this as … Continue reading “Vent of the Month Plus the Adventures of Hoo the Incredible Blue Octopus”
What To Think About When You’re Not Thinking About It
Okay, so the NTAI ain’t going so well. Ridiculous since it’s only been five weeks since I submitted the thing but there you go. So, what does one do when one is trying to Not Think About It?I usually write. I write like the dickens. There is something about totally losing yourself in a new … Continue reading “What To Think About When You’re Not Thinking About It”
We Shall Fight
We shall fight on the beaches, We shall fight on the landing grounds,We shall fight in the fields and in the streets,We shall fight in the hills;We shall never surrender. Thanks Winston. So why am I fighting? Well, my last post was grade A whine material. Now, I was going to apologise for that but … Continue reading “We Shall Fight”
