A cosy evening with Guy N Smith

 I'm really enjoying this read. I'm about halfway through the book now, and I think it's up with with the best of Guy's stories I have read so far...

Hope...

 January 21, 2023

After being told by my GP last week that there was no more he could do for me and that I required specialist medication, I finally got to see my consultant at the hospital yesterday. I am now on a heavy dose of oral steroids and antibiotics for a week. I will start urgent phototherapy sessions at the hospital next week and will have that treatment every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for the next few months. I will be seeing the consultant again in six weeks when I will start taking the immunosuppressant Methotrexate. After three years of absolute misery, I finally have hope of getting my life back 🤞

Thirst

January 15, 2023 

I've started reading my third Guy N Smith book of 2023. Satan's Snowdrop was an average read from the author. And I could suspend my disbelief in the premise of the story enough to give it a glowing review. Hoping for better things with Thirst, though I hope my 🐈's  reaction to seeing me start reading this title isn't going to be an accurate premonition.

A Busy Week

January 13, 2022

It has been a busy week, which I spent reading, sorting out our attic room and continuing editing the second draft of Cold Comfort, which is coming along to schedule. Unfortunately, the sheer length of this novel means that it won't be ready for publication until the final quarter of 2023 :(

Satan's Snowdrop

 Saturday, January 07, 2023

I finished reading Guy N Smith's Doomflight this morning. It is certainly up there with some of the author's finer reads. Today, I commence with what I have been told is one of his darker works - Satan's Snowdrop...

Resolutions Start Slowly

Friday, January 06, 2023

One week into the New Year, and my reading schedule is my only resolution going to plan. I have watched a lot less TV in the evenings, instead devoting this time to ploughing through the Guy N Smith novel Doomflight.

Healthwise, 2023 has not been too kind and I am now back on antibiotics to help reduce my skin inflammation, which is making my mobility an issue. This has obviously affected my goal of getting more exercise and reducing my weight - although I have cut back on my on snacking too heavily. I will continue to monitor my food/drink intake, I don't envision my health improving in that time so a new exercise regime may have to wait a while longer.

My Explore Gower fb page is up and running, though I need to increase its popularity. 

I have a week away from my day job now as the union there has called a five-day strike for my department. I hope to use this time to get two further chapters of Cold Comfort sorted in second draft format and to start reading my second Guy N Smith novel of the year - the title of which I am still undecided upon. 

The first writing Sesh of the year always feel good.

Well, I certainly didn't expect to be writing more of my Pyewacket novel on my first writing sesh of the year. But the idea for Chapter three buzzed in me yesterday evening whilst watching I-can't-remember-what.
