ENTER STAGE RIGHT: (huffing and puffing)…

We’ve just returned from a week-long jaunt to Prague and Vienna – cities that are both remarkable and quite beautiful, and in the case of Vienna, a revelation (but more of that in a later blog entry…).
So, I’m back in wet ‘n’ windy Sheffield now and creatively reinvigorated for a further stab at The Horde of Mhorrer edits which were put on hold due to untimely “man-flu” and the trip away. And during our travels I wrote a fair few pages of notes on The Black Hours, and have a fist-full of short story and a non-genre-novel ideas inspired by Wien, too.

So while I won’t be starting The Black Hours until March, over the next three months I’ll be far from idle.

In fact it’s quite possible that I won’t even notice Christmas passing by the window in a flurry of snow and the short-sharp ringing of bells…
