Tweakings and things

So. I decided to change theme, since the old one was too bland for me.  I settled for this one, since it offered me the opportunity to add a background image.  I knew exactly which one too. This photo of a cat saint statue that I took in Lisboa a 3-4 years ago. Except… the […]

Third time is the charm

A couple of days ago, I reached the point in the synopsis were I needed to re-read the first draft.   I hesitated, but in the end I decided to write the beginning first.   So. Yesterday, I started to write the beginning from scratch. This time, the opening is in the right place.  Today, […]

  What are you currently reading? Nothing. I am between books right now. Which is an…odd feeling. • What did you recently finish reading? I just finished reading Heart of Darkness by Lauren Dane, which was an intresting Paranormal Romance • What do you think you’ll read next? I am not in the mood for […]

So. Yesterday I took a look at the synopsis.   And I was a bit appalled to discover that there were plot holes big enough to poke my head through.   I knew that the end was missing when I started writing, but I had planned to reach the point were the first draft stops before I […]

Things like this just don’t happen here

  First, a train crashed into a house in southern Stockholm ( thank god the train was out of traffic and the house empty).   The incident is really embarrassing for the train company, since  it was a cleaning lady that drove  the train (!) and someone had forgotten the key in the ignition (!!).  Oh, […]
