Current W.I.P.s: GNS3
My New Writing Desk :)
I have always wanted one of these, ever since I was little - an Edwardian writing bureau. And now I finally possess one. And here it is, in situ, in the writing shed I have been working on creating in my garden since last Summer:

| My new Edwardian writing bureau |

| The writing bureau with writing top lowered |
 |
| Cubby holes and shelves on the writing desk |
 |
| Pen draw |
 |
| My 'special' writing pen, from my childhood days |
 |
| An old 1970's ornament, now occupying one of the cubby holes |
I found the writing bureau on ebay last night and put in an offer, which the seller was more than happy to accept. Luckily, the desk was located just down the road from me and I picked it up this morning. I am feeling very happy this morning with my new purchase and am more enthusiastic about continuing the conversion of my old shed now. I can hardly wait to settle myself at the desk, pen in hand and write as the rain hits the windows and the tin roof. It should be very atmospheric...
P.S. I will do a brief audio recording in the shed the next time it rains heavily to try and share the ambience of the place a little :)
Berserk! Chapter Five
The group are starting to get freaked out in the isolated woodland. No human has walked this land for a thousand years and the dark gods and spirits continue to linger here...
Writing with the Pixies
The sun is shining again, so it's time for me to head out into the garden and try and progress Chapter Four a little. I want this chapter put to bed by the weekend...
Peace and Harmony in the Garden
I strive hard to make my garden a place of peace and harmony :)

Berserk! Progressing Chapter Three
I struggled a little with how to close Chapter Three of Beserk! But the chapter has come together nicely for me as I actually put pen to paper to write the thing. Here is my story-board pic of the conclusion of the chapter, if you can interpret my child-like sketch. #IWishICouldDraw
Berserk! Chapter Three
Writing Chapter Three and not sure of how to end it, or what happens in Chapter Four onwards...... This hasn't happened in a long while...
Signed Michelle Paver Books
I finally received my signed copy of Michelle Paver's Wakenhyrst novel this week. It looks a beast of a novel compared to her earlier ghost stories Dark Matter and Thin Air, which I also have signed copies of :) Her earlier books were excellent reads, their spooky atmosphere knitted meticulously and realistically into the stories. I am a big fan. I have a bit of a backlog of books to read at the moment, so this mighty tome will have to live quietly on my bookshelf with its sisters for the time being. It seems the perfect read to while away the winter months so I may crack its spine this coming Halloween. Seems fitting...
Rain on Shed Door
I just nipped outside to put a few of my delicate plants in the shed before this evening's storm hits and I saw this:
Beautiful :)
