October 2026 Update!


Happy Autumn Nerds! 

As usual another month has flown by and now we're into my favourite season of the year - Autumn.  

October is fast growing into my favourite month.  The colours of nature are at their best - all yellows, browns and oranges.  There's a chill to the air but not too cold. Although cold enough to get cosy with a good horror book or film.

I think Halloween is my favourite holiday nowadays.  Even more than Christmas!

September Review - I didn't write anything in September but I did continue reading White Wolf by David Gemmell.

I also started reading some short stories by CJ Tudor in her collection A Slither of Darkness.

Sadly I didn't make Edge-Lit this year but hope to make up for that in 2027. Fingers crossed it's on!

I did see CJ Tudor in person in Leeds Waterstones in September which was a great time.




I also started a subscription to the Dungeon and Dragons books. I also had a book Haul of some Stephen King!



In October -  I will continue to read both White Wolf by David Gemmell and A Sliver of Darkness by CJ Tudor.  That is perfect for October.

I also hope to exercise and walk more in October.  It is perfect walking weather.

I will be writing in October as I have joined the Writing group Write Magic's October challenge.


So I'm in Miss Honey's class of '26. I have set a goal of 8,000 words.  I hope to continue Urban X-Gore!

What are your plans for October?
