E-reader woes

Last night while I was reading, my faithful Cybook Odessey froze. I cursed, pressed the power button to restart it. When nothing happened,  I cursed some more before letting it charge over night. This morning, I tried to restart it and nothing happened. So I tried to do a hard reset.  Did it work? Uhm. […]

So many things to do

A couple of days ago, Shamrokon tweeted: Just 99 days to go.  I stared at the tweet for a moment, and then panicked for a moment.   Let’s just say I’ll be busy this summer.  I’m revising the Wild Hunt, which keeps on growing to Thrizah and Kari’s delight. But being told ” More is good, […]

Utterly random update

I went offline during easter, and revised a whopping 11 000 words.  After I got home it has been slower though. Part of it is because I’ve had health issues and part of it is because I need to recharge. ( That’s always the case for me. )   But I’m slogging along on the revisions […]

Schedules and stuff

Traditional Swedish Raspberry pie

It was Mother’s Day in Sweden yesterday, and I decided to make raspberry pie. Which turned out yummy but too much berries vs dough. So I made it again with less berries:). Pie dough: 1 ½ dl flour 100 g butter 1 tablespoon sugar Filling: 250 g frozen berries ½ dl sugar 1 tablespoon potatoe […]

Tea, Life and Writing
