We just might have a design!

You know - when I talk with people about lovespoons, they often ask about whether it bothers me to always have to part with a spoon after having put so much of my heart and soul into it, not to mention the hours and hours of hard…

Giving away books on Kindle

Very interesting business, this.  Having put 5 of my Angel Mountain novels onto the Kindle Store on Amazon, everybody has been telling me that I must do a free promotion.  So I have set it all up, and "On Angel Mountain" is available free, for 5 days (that's the maximum allowed in a 90-day period).

It's all 'blue' looking out of the attic window

It's all 'blue' looking out of the attic window. Odds-on for relocation of the 'office' to the Discovery Centre at the beach later . . .

Whether to go or to stay

 

It is almost time to start packing those bags for the summer 'hols' (for US folk, that's UK-speak for VACATION.

 

Well, there may be a new option for many this year - it goes under the name of 'STAYCATION - driven (in part) by the economic hardships that many people are suffering. They feel they cannot afford to trek to some foreign land, so they decide to STAY at home.

 

My recommendations are these:

Some thoughts on grief.

So, I am an American; and as much as I hate to admit it, I think my view of the world is pretty small.  Now, not to take anything away from America, our news is very tailor-made--American news about Americans doing American things. (Normally, they are rich, pretty; but that is a different rant.) Stuff to make you feel good or to make you feel guilty, but not really to inform.  We get used to that, and easily work those short term responses into our daily lives and move on.



So,…

Dream jobs

Here's an interesting article: The UK's top 10 Dream Jobs.

 

My ambitions, and my career took a totally different track. I think I can honestly say I never aspired to be any one of those.

 

I also never considered being a marathon runner - or half of one - or even a runner of a half a marathon . . . or a would-be 95-day blogger. Nope! Nothing so…

David Western's Portland Eisteddfod Lovespoon - Approaching the cage...

.

Laura here, again... I think I mentioned already that I was a little excited at the prospect of making a cage of roots. As much as people always seem to enjoy moving parts, I thought this might warrant a little further discussion.



Hmm. So, when I started thinking about approaching the cage, I thought,…
