Indoor Gardening

With Spring in sight at long last, my enthusiasm for gardening, albeit indoor gardening, is burgeoning.  😊

Ghost Stories for Boys

As I am writing my first ghost story since I was a young lad, I thought I"d put off writing by organising all my ghost story books and start recording them in my online library:

One of my favourite childhood Christmas present still sits on my bookshelf nearly 50 years later.

The first thing I saw when I woke up this morning.

X2 More SCGS Books

x2 more books added to my Seth's Christmas Ghost Stories collection. Iam now just x3 books away from completing the current range now. Those remaining books are all in order - with x2 en route from Uxbridge and x1 from America!

Looking through my collection, I had an idea. I have a box of Lego kicking around doing nowt these days. Wouldn't making Lego creations of the Seth drawings featured in these books make for a rather cool project? Hmmmmmm.

Mother-of-Millions

I used this week's Sunday indoor gardening slot to pot up a Mother-of-Millions plant tp take into the office:

Another booty haul of goodies

I added a few more titles to my Seth's Christmas Stories book collection. I even managed to snag the rare and already out of print and very pricey The Apple Tree by Daphne du Maurier for a fiver from World of Books. 🙂

I have x3 more books on order, including the rarest SCGS book of all, A Visit by Shirley Jackson, which I sourced for only £12 from an American second hand bookshop. God only know if and when than will arrive though...

The GNS 1 Update Continues

 Continuing work on the updated first issue of my Guy N Smith zine...

Familiar for sale!

 Familiar, my 9th and final novel has just been published - you can get your early copy right now here.

GNS Zine Update

I will be start work compiling the second issue of the Guy N Smith zine in a couple of weeks. First though, I need to update this zine with a typo clear up, additional content from last year GNS convention and a matt cover to give the book more of a zine look. Watch this space, as I am hoping to get this title back on sale in the very near future...

Familar End.

 Well, I finally competed my 9th and final horror novel, Familiar yesterday. I just have some grafting to do on the typesetting, writing the book's blurb etc. to do now, but I am hoping to get the beast published before the dawning of next week.

Making the most of what spare time I have before heading home for the evening to work on the aforementioned, I manage to progress my Guy N Smith ghost story a little after I finished at the office for the day:

Sunday Indoor Gardening

 My grandmother used to buy me a box of After Eights every Christmas. This was the last one she gave me before passing away.

Growing in it are various variations of Crassula ovata.

After brushing down the tin, giving the plath a thorough shower and soak, I raised the lower leaf lay so the cool rocks are displayed better.

Seth Update

Thanks to their cheap price, just a fiver a book, my Seth's Christmas Ghost Stories book collection is already building up nicely 🙂
