I'm back!

It feels like forever since I was able to post on Facebook and my blog and Goodreads, but I’ve been going through a rough patch, still struggling with that pinched nerve, a very nasty foe. I hope my American friends and readers had a good Thanksgiving. Now that I am feeling a little better, I hope to start posting more regularly again. I do have good news to report. The new Bernard Cornwell book in his spectacular Saxon series is now out in the US; It came out in the UK in October. The title is The Flame-thrower and it is wonderful; he just keeps getting better and better. And the evil entity masquerading as a HP laptop is dead. Yes, Diablo chose the middle of my health crisis to have a major meltdown and his demons could not be exorcised. Because he was still under warranty, HP gave me a replacement computer and I am taking some comfort in imagining Diablo rotting away in some computer landfill; it would have been more satisfying, though, if I’d been able to drive a stake through his heart.

Glad you are feeling better Sharon and able to write again. email me when you need any healing. I must chase up the new Bernard Cornwell.
Must admit that I was accosted in the village and a gentleman said my book was better than a Bernard Cornwell. When i asked him why he said that usually the Cornwell novels just flow from one battle to another without much story in between. I hope the one you mentioned proves him wrong.

CatBookMom Glad you're feeling better. Being ill (for whatever values of "ill") for an extended period is hard to come back from, and always takes longer than your life is willing to give you. Be gentle with yourself.

Good to hear you are feeling better. And even better news ... Diablo has gone to flames!
I hope the new computer has better manners.

Edward III is progressing and I'm thoroughly enjoying the journey you set me on! I can't thank you enough. Hope our paths cross again sooon.
