An Apology

I have been away from here for too long. I apologize to all those who read these posts – not that there are many of you, but a single reader is as valuable to me as a million. I meant to write something while I was back in Manila, but far too many roadblocks popped all over. My secondhand laptop could not manage the heat and humidity and came close to turning into molten lava. I could have cooked a full meal on it, but somehow I felt responsible for such an old friend. I managed to bring it back to Cape Town in one piece, and it has since recovered. Now it is a back up machine should this new one I got decide to abandon me midstream.


Some big news… my twin books born in 2011, Baha-bahagdang Karupukan and Alien to Any Skin, will have new siblings. Now busy with copy editing the texts and getting hold of blurbs, possibly introductions – should the stars allow. If you or anyone you know have read and enjoyed/hated my books or any of my poetry, please send me word.


Thanks for staying with me for the ride.

Rose Boehm Hello Jim... I must apologize for not having read your blogs, the ones you didn't write, during the last almost three months because, while you traveled east and north, a little closer to the equator, I traveled east and north, away from the equator - relative to where we usually live.

I shall have to apologize soon for two blogs I didn't maintain. You are forgiven and: CONGRATULATIONS!!! I picked up your ALIEN TO ANY SKIN in the UK where it was waiting for me and it's a pleasure.

Now it's my turn to try and get my next one published.
