Hope you haven't been sitting there waiting all this time because I've been off galavanting about and suchlike. Yes, doing loads and loads of careless galavanting all over the supermarket. Details? Well I won't patronise you with DETAILS, you little thing. Suffice to say it's all been incredibly exciting for me and that's the real reason why I haven't had a chance to get in touch.
How are the what? The books? Oh, well I'm reading loads. Mainly Star Trek related. And that's down to finding the original series on Netflix. All of them. I decided (as it's the 50th and there was not much else on) to plough through the lot. So far, I'm halfway through series 3 and looking forward to getting to the animated series (which I've never seen). I'm immersing myself in guides to all the original episodes and behind the scenes malarkey as I go and it's all wonderfully distracting.
We took a holiday to Cornwall recently as well. I spent my 43rd birthday munching on Rick Stein's fish and chips in Padstow. It's a pain to get them. You have to track him down and shadow him until he goes out for dinner, then whack him over the head when he's distracted playing Pokemon. Worth it, though. Chips are a bit soggy.
What's that again? Writing? Well I did that. Two books, don't you know? Where are they? Well...of course they're not ready yet to be properly read by other people. Plus, I have a third book to start. Planning to do that in November...once I've got to a point where inspiration is hitting me harder than Rick Stein's bodyguards.
It's also 10 years since I did a Rashamon album (I checked) so I'm still contemplating doing a new track...possibly over half term. Sorry, I'm a bit rubbish at providing stuff...but I'm just finding it more absorbing with this galavanting about. I'll get to things at some point...will definitely keep you posted.
