Christmas in July
I’d not heard of this until last year when I was told that it really was a ‘thing’. I looked it up and expats who live on the other side of the world, wanted a more traditional Christmas. As 25th of December is the height of their summer, they celebrated in July, today, the 25th.… Continue reading Christmas in July
Reblogged – Greed – it’s oh so true!
It’s something I’ve noticed but hadn’t given it further thought. Now seeing this article makes me realise how greed is the perfect word. The one that comes to mind for me is that when we bought a ticket to park, if you hadn’t used the time up, you’d pass it on. Now they use different… Continue reading Reblogged – Greed – it’s oh so true!
Karen’s Chat on Changing Book Sizes
Recently, I read two articles about books sizes. It was already something I had been thinking about. Was it just me changing my reading habits or had it always been this way? I receive a newsletter from Dave at Kindlepreneur who encouraged readers to share this information: There's been a dramatic change in book length… Continue reading Karen’s Chat on Changing Book Sizes
Reblogged- #NornsAuthorsReviews – The Burning Tree – Salvation: Book 1 & Rebirth: Book 2 by Christopher Artinian

A Funny Story – but not really
This happened in 1987, when it was acceptable to leave your child/baby in the a pram outside a shop whilst you went inside. Horrifying now, but back then everyone did it and they were quite safe- until they weren’t. This story came to mind the other day when I thought a crying child was alone… Continue reading A Funny Story – but not really
Come on Amazon, What are You Doing?
I’ve never had a problem buying a book on Amazon. In fact, just the opposite, one click and it’s bought. I wanted a paperback and during the week I ordered Picture (Im) Perfect. I’d been following the author on TikTok and also following an editor on Facebook. A few days ago I realised they were… Continue reading Come on Amazon, What are You Doing?
Reblogged – The Mandela Effect
This is something I’ve not heard of, but know it happens, I just didn’t know it had a name. My recollection was that Mandela was released from prison. Of course he was. Wasn’t he? 😂 The only experience I recall of being absolutely certain of something that was wrong, was when I gave directions. I… Continue reading Reblogged – The Mandela Effect
Welcome July
A few days ago I released a writing plan and all is going well with it so far. In fact, it made things easier to have them written down clearly so I can follow the list. However, I forgot a story, well two actually, because I only remembered it as I wrote this. I’ve been… Continue reading Welcome July
