The return of the wood pigeon
posted by MoreThanACat
Bill Hates Youuu is back. Less vitriolic than before. It feels like he’s just going through the motions; maybe because he’s getting no response. The song birds aren’t giving him the solo. They’re carrying on, doing their thing. He’s having to compete for air time and this fact is affecting Bill Hates Youuu big time. […]

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 […]

Wasn’t sure I would be able to do this one until today, when a visit to Two Tree Island brought me into contact with this. This is a lovely container, don’t you think? For other takes on the challenge, click here

Weekend Photo Challenge: Extra
posted by MoreThanACat
This is a weed growing in my parent’s garden. Not only is it beautiful, but if you look carefully, it has captured the morning dew. If you look even more closely you will see some black triangles on the stem of this beauty. For further takes on this challenge click here

Scarecrows 2014
posted by MoreThanACat
It’s strange how on your commute to work you tend to mark your seasons by the changing landmarks. And after spotting the very unusual scarecrows for the first time last year, I’ve been looking out for the Family (as Doctor Who fans know they are called). I was prepared this year, with the Nikon in […]

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 […]
