Things that make me happy...

At the moment, the UK’s same sex marriage bill is being debated in parliament. The bigotry is flying. It’s probably going to get worse before it gets better. Health wise and work wise things are winding me up too.
So, today I’m going to ignore all of that and take about a couple of the random things that have made me happy lately.
 Les Miserable (DVD)
Les Mis is my favourite musical. I’ve seen it on stage and in concert but I don’t do cinema, so this was my first chance to see this version....

Flashback - M/M Romance Group Stories

Hi guys,

My story for this years free story event with the Goodreads M/M Romance Group is finally with the proof reader, so I thought this would be a good time to poke everyone and remind them about the stories from the previous years events.


 *****

Back in 2010, they the group started off with a Christmas story. 25 writers contributed stories.  My story was called A Bugger to Pack and was inspired by this image.      You can read it in this anthology.... ...

Goodbye April!

Hello Everyone!

I'm really glad April is almost over. The last two months or so have been a complete sod.

Off the top of my head, in the last eight to ten weeks...

I came off three different highly addictive medications. I caught a stomach bug. I had a chest infection (my whole family had it in fact, and both my parents developed complications as a result. My father was in hospital for a week, my mother probably should have been admitted too). I've developed a spontanous allergy...

Have you heard?

I don't have anything new out this week, so I thought I'd talk about something else.

I have a long running love of audio books. Lately, when I haven't been feeling at my best, they're a god-send.

Here are some of my favourites...



I love all Pratchett. My favourite to read is a different title, but there's something about this one on audio that makes it quietly perfect. The Welsh accents for the dawarfs probably doesn't hurt. (It's also one of the more stand alone-ish Discworld titles. Although...
