This is part of a screenplay I have been working on for a children's film. These two characters, Mrs Rosen and Mrs Martin, came from my sarcastic sense of humour. And I just love them. If I am in a bad mood than a scene with Mrs Rosen and Mrs Martin bring a smile to my face. The… Continue reading Two characters and my sense of humour

Summer
Spring came and is not roaring through our smallholding but whimpering through like a kicked season. For me it is passing with a blur. All I seem to do is write and dig, dig and write. Not that I mind. At this time of year I am waiting for things to germinate, and for stories… Continue reading Summer
Back on the treadmill
Well, today has been one I was hoping not to do. Back in January the agent I'd sent my children's book to said they wanted to see the rest of my story.

Wonder as… Continue reading The door within a door
May contain nuts
Frank was peckish. He knew he ought not to be but it was turning out to be a hell of a day. In the morning he had been called into the bosses office. "Sit down, Frank," the big man had said. Frank assumed he had a name but he'd always called him boss. Now he said… Continue reading May contain nuts

Happy April Fools!
I love silliness. Last November I bought a dog. Meant to be medium, she is now large and bashes her head regularly on the dinning room table. She is mostly Huntaway but there is something else... Kellpie... Maybe... As she is 7 months, she is full of silliness. So here is my silliness of the… Continue reading Happy April Fools!
