I know I’ve not been around much on BCUK recently, but part of the reason has been the sheer pressure of writing. The thing about writing is that it is very time consuming – researching, writing, editing, it all takes time. My most recent book :
http://www.thewolfenhowlepress.com/Magic_On_The_Breath.html
has been out since the end of October 2011, and if you click on the link you can read the first chapter absolutely free. I always feel this is a good idea because it gives people a taste of what the rest of the book will be like without costing a penny, rather like browsing in a book shop!
At the moment I’m working on two other books which I hope to finish this year. These will be available in both print and on Kindle. I’ve tried to keep the prices for both as low as I can – by doing so much of the work myself I can cut out a lot of extras and pass the savings on to the customer.
I also have a couple of Kindle-only projects in the pipeline which will hopefully he up and running by December.
I am still putting out my radio shows on One World Radio – the next goes out this Thursday at 10pm BST and features a long interview with the well known author, David Rankine. I now have my own podcast site too, at this means that if you miss the radio broadcast, you can catch up later either listening online or downloading the show to listen to it at your convenience.
We also have a new puppy, having lost our much loved Barney at the end of last year. The new pup, Noah, is now about the size of a Shetland pony and is frequently found standing up with his front paws in the sink. I think I might be able to teach him to do the washing up one of these days….
So as you can see, what with one thing and another things have been extremely busy just lately. This evening though, I’m planning on a quiet evening. Me, Mr Penry, the dogs… and a sinkload of washing up!
Good to have to pop in Tylluan….Pleased to hear you’re doing wo well…..Hugs! :)x
Thank you Bushka – I am still wandering around blogland, but never as often as I would like. Big hugs! 🙂
Yey… hail the wonderful writer and healer.
I have missed you. AND where are my updates? I received two newsletters, then nothing…
xLux
Thank you Lucrezia! I am due to send out another newsletter fairly soon – on average they are approximately once a month, but sometimes – mea culpa – I do fall behind. Please bear with me!
:wave: Hello there …. thank you for the update – you have been a busy blogger!!!
Have a lovely evening 🙂
Thank you La Spice! I think I would probably be able to post and comment more often if this site wasn’t so incredibly slow! I think it must have a tortoise for a server! 😉
We’re trying to work on it!!!! :yes:
A magic spell wouldn’t go amiss!!! :))
Point taken, la spice!
You haven’t missed anything Ty, it has been totally dead around here. Google have turned the web into a giant digital shopping mall.
Keep plugging those books. I’ll have my new promptions page ready for friends before too long (but not this week because I trasheed my laptop :)) )
Thanks Ian! I do love blogging, it’s just there is never enough time to do everything I need… have gone into podcasts now, too, which is great fun! What on earth did you do to your laptop?
The battery had ben shot for about three years but I have a portable powrpak so I got an inverter for that so I could just plug in when I was out and about. Thus the kackered battery did not get replaced and in the end would not hold any charge at all. No worries, I just used the laptop as a desktop.
Then last week the grandchildren came round so I was moving the laptop off my ltlle folding desk so Beack could use it to draw on and I snagged the power lead. The PC died at once but because the lead wasn’t right out as I moved the computer it started to load windows again. Then the connection failed when I put it down. This has corrupted the boot sector of the hard drive.
I can still use it running Linux but my old Linux software does not run with my wireless router. I’m waiting for a new linux system to arrive.
Fortunately I have a spare computer. 😀
Sounds terrifying Ian, I think I’d still be hiding behind the settee! 😉
I will be doing that and can download on my kindle,looking forward to that thanks tyl.xx
Thank you Avenscent! Hope you enjoy it! :yes:
Thanks for the update.
I have missed you.

I’ve missed you too, QueeneMab – it’s nice to be back!
