A little late to the game with this challenge. Visiting Nunton Cemetery, I came across these little grave stones. Not for children or pets, they are what the poorest of Victorian society used to mark their final resting place. I showed them to Year 10; we’re doing Christmas Carol: just got to the graveyard scene. […]

Weekly photo challenge: Windows
posted by MoreThanACat
Short post from me this week. My inspiration comes from the weekly photo challenges, which I like to dip into from time to time. This week’s inspiration is windows. I took this in March time before we moved from Southend. Taken from the Southchurch underpass, it was one of those point, click, and hope moments

Weekly Photo Challenge: Focus/Out Of Focus
posted by MoreThanACat
Sometimes something catches your eye and you just have to snap it. Sometimes you get the effect you want. Sometimes you don’t, and sometimes you have serendipity. This was my moment of serendipity. Taken in Harlow Town Park last Sunday, I wanted to capture the little red plant hiding in the grass. I had no […]

Weekly Photo Challenge: Repurpose/ Discover Challenge: Conventional Wisdom
posted by MoreThanACat
I’ll be honest, I found this challenge a tad difficult until I remembered this set of photos, taken one Christmas. Meet Abbey-Kat, now 19 and grumpy. These were taken when she was younger and grumpy. I decided I’d also tag this for extra credit in conventional wisdom category. I’m sure you’ll agree, she’s defying conventional […]

I bumped into this chap, resting in Wrexham, this summer. He seemed so peaceful; so graceful. I couldn’t pass by without taking a snap. For further takes on this challenge Graceful

Weekly photo challenge: Ambience
posted by MoreThanACat
This week has been a week of real pathetic fallacy as we built up to the Great Snow Storm and Surge Tides of 2017; only to find that here in the South East of England, they were little more than a damp squib. For your delectation, here a little bit of the ambience I found […]

A Line In The Sand
One of my characters in Widowhood of Spiders (book 2 of Symington’s adventures) is angry. So angry in fact he is in danger of breaking the unwritten code of the criminal world: twice. Not only is he in the process of killing a policeman; he is doing it in front of witnesses – not bound […]
Engineering Rows
This week I’ve been doing a lot of thinking rather than a lot of writing. Being stuck in traffic is like that. And I’ve been thinking about my victim. Well one of them. A chap by the name of Sir Martin Hamblebee. In my head he’s a nasty piece of work. A bully. A pompous […]
5 Questions for Authors: Ann Wuehler
Until recently, all I knew about Ann was that she wrote for the same publisher as I do (KGHH), and lives in the same state as my cousin (Oregon). So I asked her to give me a bit of a biography, which was a good thing because her writing credentials are epic. Make me feel […]
