So apart from doing some house painting, more writing, some editing, and looking carefully at those two contacts, I haven't done much; mainly because I spent most of last week in bed with flu. A typo in my original draft made it look like I had spent a week in bed with Flo (whoever she is!) but unfortunately not. No, I was out for the count most of the time with a head ache and the usual grotty feelings that we men get as soon as we get a sniffle. It was man flu!! Honest!
I was heartened by several emails with comments about the site; some from people I know, some from complete strangers. Like Mike from South Africa who said he stumbled on the site and liked the background picture of the rocks at Hartland Quay which he remembered from his youth. Others of you who have commented include: Julie and Deneane from the USA, my very good writer friend, Liz, who writes under the name of Elizabeth Jasper and Kevin in Canada. Keep your comments coming - it's nice to know that someone else is reading this rubbish! As a result of one complaint, I have made the 'Enter Site' button bigger. How's that for service!!
So... I hear you say... if lots of people are looking at yr website, (well about 20 so far) why is the site count still in single figures? Good question! The answer is simple: My webmaster and good friend Jon Downes, used someone else's site counter in the beginning and now that I have one of my own, it has started at zero again!
On the writing front, having sent one amended contract for 'Deniable Operation' back to the publisher, I am still working through the other one. I have had very good advice and comments from Elizabeth Haylett at the Society of Authors, so I await the publisher's comments.
Auditions for 'The Witness for the Prosecution' went well and I hope to cast it very soon. I still have a couple of people to audition before I make the announcement but I have actually allocated some of the smaller parts already.
I also started the ball rolling on our local village concert.
If I could just get rid of the last vestiges of the flu virus which has laid me low... I'll be fine!
More soon !
