I Will Miss the Sunrises and Rainbows
Monday, 27 November, 2023
My team in work are being relocated to a new floor in the New Year. I am gonna miss the views from my current location, and not just the spectacular sunrises. This rainbow lingered for almost half an hour, and grew in intensity with each passing minute.Sunday 26 November 2023

Grim Lego
Wednesday, 22 November, 2023
Seems more grim making a horror Lego set than actually writing horror novels. Anyway, here is the start of my first Guy N Smith lego diorama. It's gonna be a graveyard set, sharing scenes from the author's books Nightspawn and The Dark One. There is also a nod to Bats out of Hell. I will probably change the Sylvia Kline gravedigger minifigure for a better one. I'm waiting on some Lego base plates and graves before I can continue with this model... #GuyNSmith #Lego

Guy N Smith - Caracal
Sunday, 19 November 2023
Starting my 20th and last GNS book of 2023. It's been a long and entertaining journey. Thanks to the lovely people on the Guy N Smith Appreciation FB Group, including Guy's wonderful family, for making the reads a hell of a lot richer, and helping me get hold of some of his very rare books. Chuffed I kept to my New Year's resolution to devote my reading year to Guy ☺️Saturday 18 November 2023

Slowly getting my first Lego Guy N Smith book recreations pieces together. It's taken bits from four different sets to get this close to Doomflight and there's still more work to be done...

My liver scan at the hospital gave me good news so I can continue on my low dose chemotherapy to help my condition. The walk to hospital yielded some nice view too. Even the waiting room in the hospital was cool.The last remaining leaves of Autumn |

Guy Photohoot Prep
Friday, 10 November, 2023
With my Guy N Smith reading year coming to an end next month, I'm already starting to collect items to make GNS character photoshoots, including Lego versions of some classic GNS covers. The photo below represents just a few of the props I already collated. The book covers I can so far reproduce as Lego Covers are Werewolf by Moonlight, The Slime Beast, Bats out of Hell, Satan's Snowdrop, Doomflight, Wolfcurse, Accursed, Throwback, The Walking Dead, Alligators, The Reaper and Deadbeat. More to follow as I source more suitable Lego parts...These will feature in my book about Guy's works and the fun that can be had reading and collecting his books. This should reach the shelves late next year. #guynsmithWednesday 8 November 2023

Loosening the Chains of Office Mundanity (2)
There has been a bit of a change for me, work-wise, starting today. I have started new compressed hours at my day job, meaning I now work four 10-hour days instead of 5 eight hour days a week. This gives me every Wednesday off work :)
This is a very real game-changer for me, addressing my work/home life balance issues, which have been too work-weighted for far too long. I plan to utilise these freed-up days well, using them to concentrate more on my creative projects, housework and mental well-being. And all that without losing a penny in pay. :)Today, I started work on finally sorting out our attic room, got ahead of schedule in my reading and novel writing, and catalogued these books in my Pixie-Led library:
