Busy, Busy, Busy

Busy times here at Festung Robinson.

[image error]A week on Thursday sees the release of The I-Spy Murders, the latest title in my popular series, The Sanford 3rd Age Club Mysteries, in which we see Brenda taking part in the reality TV show, I-Spy, as a consequence of which she’s involved in a suspicious death. Can Joe and the rest of the gang prove her innocent? That’s a tough one. We all know that Brenda is far from innocent, but surely she can’t be a killer?

I’ve also begun work on the next two mysteries for this roving band of 3rd age rockers, but right now I don’t even know what they did, never mind whodunit.

 

Work on a sequel to The Handshaker continues apace, and it’s about 1/3rd done. This is a major project, which I’ve decided to take to a third title over the next year and half. More news on that as and when it happens.

 

 

 

Next, I’ve decided to challenge myself to write a novel in a week. It’s one of those crackpot ideas that spring to mind now and then, this time inspired by a blog post I read a few days ago. Can it be done? Well, I don’t know, and I won’t know until I try, but I’ve already set up a blog for the project and you can follow it here.

The intention is to produce a working first draft in seven days, and I’ll be blogging progress leading up to the week, during it, and the aftermath.

Finally, it’s raining like hell here, and the back garden needs mowing.

As if I don’t have enough to do.
