A lot of my recent posts have been long and involved, so I think it’s time for a nice, short, inconsequential entry!!!

Wrote
11 pages of the new book, which I was very pleased about, as I had some
workmen come early in the morning to do some stuff for me. It’s very
easy to get distracted when you’re a writer working at home, so I was
glad I didn’t take the easy excuse of saying "I can’t do a full day’s
work because I have something else to deal with!"
I’ve started watching season 6 of
The Shield -- great TV!! It’s rattling along brilliantly at the moment. Essential viewing.
Finished season 3 of
Battlestar Galactica
last week. It ended with a superb cliffhanger. My gal on the inside in
New York (you know who you are, bee-atch!!!) tells me season 4 has just
started there. I’m almost tempted to immigrate, just to steal a jump on
the release schedule over here!!!
I began reading
Bloodtide
by Melvin Burgess a couple of weeks ago. Fascinating stuff, although I
haven’t read any of it in the last week -- I’ve been too busy writing!!
Saw
National Treasure
tonight. It was better than I thought it would be, though it moved too
slowly at times -- if the editing had been a bit tighter, it would have
flowed much more smoothly. Still, fun overall. I think I’ll check out
the sequel in the near future.
Right -- that’s enough prattling! I’m off to watch some TV and take things easy, because sometimes you just have to!!!
