Hey Folks!
The last month of 2024 has arrived. I've said it in many updates, but 2024 has flown by.
Not a big update this month as I've not done much except been off work.
November Review -
November started off well. I went to Denby Dale, a quaint village on the outskirts of Huddersfield.
A lovely village. I went to support fellow writer and Cleckheaton Writing Group leader Karen Naylor.
There was an event held for local authors, to sell their novels.
Also there was my Edge-lit werewolf friend (or fiend), Nick Stead.
I purchased their books and a crime novel. It was great to see them and catch up.
Although, as much as the event got me fired up to write again, sadly I didn't write any stories in November. Although I wrote more blog posts.
Reading wise in November I finished 77 Shadow Street and started Best Served Cold by Joe Abercrombie.
With being off work, to help declutter my noggin, I rearranged by book shelves.
I also hauled the last book I needed in Terry Pratchett's City Watch series. The Fifth Elephant.
In December -
My reading goal is to finish Best Served Cold. Then just before Christmas start reading a Christmas novel, say, Christmas Evie by Karen Naylor.
Writing in December may take a back seat, with Christmas coming up, my stress and anxiety being up and decision about work coming up.
With work, at the minute I'm still off with stress and have a meeting with work in a few days. Something needs to be done as my head's in a fog most of the time. Also getting less money ain't great at Christmas.
So December may be a mixed bag.
Anyway hope you're all well and getting into the Christmas spirit!
