In decades past, I’d have been down at Avebury, ringing in the Solstice with a bunch of other like-minded folks, but nowadays, I have other priorities.
It would have to be the shortest day today, because time is running out.
With only a week to go, my to-do list looked like this:
Finish decorating tree/rooms, put up outside lights
Marks & Sparks shop, wrap pressies, write/deliver cards,
Buy fresh vegetables, make 2 stuffings and bread sauce.
Make/decorate 4 Christmas cakes, bake another 2 dozen mince pies (x2)
And also:
Lost in Time (Time Doctors ‘6): Proof last 3 chapters, final beta edits, publicity stuff.
I’ve only managed to complete 3 of these, so yet another week with no blog.
Ho Hum!
I’ve always preferred a buffet to a la carte – I’d far rather nibble through a bunch of different taste sensations than works my way through a single dish. Same when it comes to stories.
A Sword-wielding Archer shares the movie theatre in my head with SAS Guys, Geeky Engineers and even a Hot Angel.
But every single female in there is whip-smart, fearless and more than able to hold her own in a man’s world.
Blimey, it gets busy.
You can guarantee they're surrounded by a supporting cast who never let them take themselves seriously, so there’s always adventure, fun and romance, whatever they get up to.
Please ensure you have a snack ready or the mouth-watering food will have you diving for the biscuit tin.
