It's that time of year again, Olivia has turned another year older and another year cuter.

Duplex Tempus - Draft 5
03-08-2019:
I'm not even going to bother lying, I've just been too busy and lazy to post any content on the site over the last while. Which in turn means that I've put up no content on the social media platforms either.

Baby Brain - The Quiz Show
29-06-2019:
They say that we are currently in a âGolden Ageâ of television. Which is a fair statement I reckon. I remember growing up and the types of shows that I liked to watch (sci-fi, spy, fantasy) were few and far between because nobody really watched them. Then along came reality t.v., cheap brainless crap that took a shoestring budget to make and catapulted idiots into the limelight for fifteen seconds. But in recent years weâre getting some really good shows to watch. Even if the last season of these shows tends to be utter garbage (Iâm looking at you Game of Thrones).

Can't Win Them All
01-06-2019:
For the past few years I've been attending Dublin Comic Con not as a comicbook nerd, but as a comicbook nerd who is there selling their wares. Mainly Filthy Henry novels, since I don't exactly create anything else that would sell at the convention. It has been a permanent fixture on my calendar for the last four summers.

Crazy Crazy Golf
17-05-2019:
This week we've been on holiday. Our first family holiday abroad with the two nippers. Given how we were illness magnets for most of Jellybean's first year, last summer we did a stay-cation. In that we stayed in our own house, took time off work, and did loads of little day trips instead.

An Open Letter to Regina
25-04-2019:
Iâm having a rant. I havenât had one in a while and I feel that this topic justifies a good, old-fashioned, honest to jester style rant.

Typical

Isn't it just bloody typical, the second you get a chance to sleep in your body doesn't want to.

Cut Cut Cut
03-04-2019:
I've been working away on the latest draft of Duplex Tempus and it's been something of a slog. I made the rookie mistake of putting dates into sections of the book, so for this draft I had to go through and make sure that the dates all line up with the plot.
