So, Wall Of Spears is finished – who knew writing and
polishing a 180,000 word novel would take so long!
The fact I wrote it out to 200,000 and then had to pull
it back, didn’t help much, I have to admit.
Anyway, I can take a breath and look up from the world of
Forland, Vales and Dokuzen. I can again turn to my poor, neglected blog, which
has suffered from a serious lack of attention for most of this year.
The good news is, I have now prepared a whole bunch of
articles, which I shall be posting every Tuesday.
Why Tuesday, you might well ask.
Well, there is no good reason. In fact it is completely
arbitrary. I could say it is because my working week starts on that day, so it
gives me something other than work to look forward to. Or I could quote cheap
pizza day, or half-price movies. Honestly, I might as well say it came to me in
a dream or a strange green being from another planet told me to do it on that
day. (I work with some strange people).
I’m doing it on Tuesday because. Just because.
So you can check back here each Tuesday, confident in the
knowledge there will be something fresh, and not just a couple of tumbleweeds
blowing across the screen, to the sound of one lonely cricket’s chirp.
Unless, that is, you feel greedy. Because I could just
dump everything in the one hit and leave it to be digested, like some snake
trying to sleep off an enormous meal.
I do hope everyone isn’t feeling as queasy as I am after
that rather stretched analogy.
So, to summarise, keep checking back on Tuesday.
Or swamp me with demands for more, in which case I might
post the lot. Or maybe just a post ruminating on today’s society and our demand
for instant gratification …!
