Winter is well and truly setting in, here in Tasmania. The mornings are dark, and the grass crunches underfoot. Perfect weather for staying indoors with a warm computer.

Sadly, at the moment, journalism is taking up most of my writing time. It’s not as fun, but it helps pay the bills.

But I have just realised that I have nearly six weeks of leave time owing to me, so I’m planning on taking a week off soon, to go on a writer’s retreat. I’m hunting around, to see if anyone I know has a shack – preferably up in the mountains, and far from wi-fi signals.

But I have been working: Daemon Lover 3 is mostly finished, and Wonderlust 2 is … progressing.

I’ve also almost completed a standalone story: Taken in the Labyrinth  (working title), a minotaur story. I’ve revised and edited everything, but then I realised that an entire chapter needed to be scotched and re-written. In the re-writing, it suddenly became two chapters.

But that should be done in a day or so, then it’s on to formatting and cover design, and done!
