My latest news!

I hope this post find everyone well.  We’re already in mid-April and so far this year I haven’t posted any updates on what I’m doing and my various projects which superficially might give the impression that I’m rather busy. Actually I am rather busy with my blog, writing and my tours.  I don’t know about… Continue reading My latest news!

Making Book Promo Videos

The more observant of you may have noticed this blog post is a day or two later than normal.  Partly this is because I’ve been a bit unwell and partly it is because I have been very busy making some book promotional videos. Book promotional videos are a relatively new tool in the authors ever… Continue reading Making Book Promo Videos

New Year, New Book – The Silence Fell

The Silence Fell

I don’t really set New Year Resolutions but 2014 seemed to be an ever increasingly good year both for my writing and for my guided tours business.  I spent much of the holiday period on mapping things out for the future; adding new tours to my official and partnered websites and thinking of ways to… Continue reading New Year, New Book – The Silence Fell

It’s that time again… 2014 blogging in review

This is now my third end of year report having been on WordPress for almost 2.5 years.  It’s been a long road, getting from there to here. Thank-you to everyone who reads my blog whether regularly or infrequently or those who simply visit once from a wild search on Google.  It seems I have the… Continue reading It’s that time again… 2014 blogging in review

Q & A with blogger, author and all round nice gal Ekaterina Botziou

A hilarious re-telling of the ancient Greek myths and legends with a touch of modern bling.

This weekend sees my birthday and as such I thought I’d do something a little different with blog to celebrate by spending some online time with one of my favourite bloggers, Ekaterina Botziou. Ekaterina isn’t your typical blogger and author and you may have already seen her before on television or the cinema without even… Continue reading Q & A with blogger, author and all round nice gal Ekaterina Botziou

Facebook is changing so Tsu me

I was one of the last people to take to Facebook.  I was and am too busy to spend time looking at Selfies and when I communicate with friends I prefer to actually meet them or at least write to them properly and not with a TLC… ok Three Letter Acronym. In fact I really… Continue reading Facebook is changing so Tsu me

Doors open and opportunities knock thanks to blogging.

The more enthusiastic of my valuable readers may have noticed that I had one of those very rare occurrences this Saturday when I didn’t make a posting.  It’s all been down to a very busy month or so which I thought might be of interest. I know there are lots of people who wonder about… Continue reading Doors open and opportunities knock thanks to blogging.

The Very Inspiring Blogger Award

Before I get started, I really must thank James for nominating my blog for the Inspiring Blogger Award.  I’ve only just met James on-line recently and it is always a genuine pleasure when anyone likes, comments and follows my blog.  Being nominated for an award is most appreciated.  James works on the fabulous ‘Weave My… Continue reading The Very Inspiring Blogger Award

Is WordPress Ripping You Off?

That time of year has come when it is time to renew my WordPress domain mapping fees so that I can keep running my blogs on their .co.uk domains rather than the standard wordpress.com domain. No big deal I thought after receiving their helpful reminder email.  It’s just $13 per domain and one of them… Continue reading Is WordPress Ripping You Off?

My first cover story!

I thought that I might give a little update on my writing as the last few weeks have been very productive ones in terms of writing.  I’m about to have an article published by a leading environmental magazine (more details when it is out) on a subject relating to water poverty in Africa.  It is… Continue reading My first cover story!
