Hello Sweeties it's Saturday again. Like the image I've chosen of the cute little troll, I feel very hazy. It seems to be a day when nothing I try to do works out right. I'm not angry, just very confused. I'm stuck with the puzzles on the game I'm playing, so I put it away … Continue reading Saturday Chaos and Mayhem

Well here we are again, it's Saturday and today it really is chaos. Workmen are sorting our back garden paving, it is really dangerous, all chipped and seen better days. No, the paving not me. They are doing a great job but the noise, dust and roaring of engines has me going crazy. Hence the … Continue reading Saturday Chaos and Nonsense
Hello my friends, I hope this week has seen you all safe and well. The song which is stuck in my head this week is Solstice Bells by Jethro Tull. A wonderful Celtic sounding song which always makes me sing along and smile. I celebrate solstice and I am grateful to see it come around … Continue reading Saturday Chaos and Nonsense

Greetings dear fans and writers. Where did we leave off the last time? Oh yes. You had honed your draft, left it to brew ...speaking of. Where's my tea? Ah, that's better. There is nothing nicer than a cup of tea when chatting. The next important step, darlings, is to send the manuscript in all … Continue reading The Writerly Witch

Anyway, let me introduce myself. I am a witch's cat and let me tell you it's a hard job. However, I excel in a particular area of … Continue reading The Writerly Witch

Is fantasy a male-dominated genre? I don't think so. Tanith Lee is the first name that springs to my mind, perhaps because my mother loved her work. My mother also introduced me to Marion Zimmer Bradley and her Thendara books. Later I would buy Mists of Avalon. It remains a firm favourite, although dog-eared and … Continue reading A Fresh Wind Blowing Through Stereotypes
