So, happy new year!
It’s been a ‘interesting’ year, full of ups and downs.
It started well, with me riding high off the relative success of last year’s NaNoWriMo. It was an important milestone with my writing, the first time I ever got around to actually finishing something in a short time that I even remotely liked. So, that was Planet Of Snakes (a sequel to the unfinished Desert Of Zin) and very happy I was with it too.
Aurora Bain was born on Sunday 27th December at 4.07 in the afternoon.
Both mother and baby are doing well and should be back home from the hospital tomorrow.
(I would have posted this yesterday but I was shattered when I finally got home…)

Well, it has been a couple of days. Sorry about the lack of updates. It’s not like I don’t have the time…
Baby isn’t here yet. Although we have a week before Ruth is induced. We’d rather avoid that if possible but it’s not up to us; until then baby will arrive whenever he/she wants to.
There is other news which is quite exciting but I’ll probably post that tomorrow when I’m more awake…
I think it’s time for an early night with 253 by Geoff Ryman.

…stays together?
Wow. It’s been over a month since my last post, and life has been hectic.
Let’s see. What has been going on in the life of Al?
Well, it’s been a busy week with work and home stuff. Loads to do in the office with the audited accounts coming in and at home I’ve been doing more prep for the arrival of baby. All very excited for that.
Remote Push sent an e-mail round the writing buddies the other day letting us know about Telling of Tales, a website set up by a guy who is getting in some experience as a vocal performer and as a way to get unknown authors a different audience (or at least that’s what it says on his about page).
Although this shouldn’t come as any great surprise…
Well, what’s new (since the last post way back on the 13th of June)?
To be true, there’s good and bad.
