I didn't manage to do very much over the last couple weeks because I'm writing (and editing). I'm also somewhat limited by my new treadmill desk; as I'm getting used to walking while writing, my feet just simply give out after a few hours on it and I'm then doing Other Things and focus my online...

Mike   Sullivan Mike Sullivan's blog:
Dear Readers:
I enjoy writing exotic suspense thrillers set in foreign lands. In vivid prose I try to capture the dark world of unsavory characters and oddball lowlifes out to con the public hoping to make a fast buck.

KhaaaaanSo, saw Star Trek: Into Darkness today and it was very good. Extremely well made, wonderfully cast and acted, with a snappy script and an okay if not exactly marvellous plot. On a scale of One to Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, I’d give it a seven.


Because The Wrath of Khan kicks its ass in just...
