woke last night to the sound of thunder

Christmas is already upon us, how can that be?

DEEPWATER KING has been announced as ready for pre-order! The link seems to be Amazon UK, I'm certain if one fiddles around with the URL you can get something more local. Yes, it still says Monstrous Heart Trilogy, that was a placeholder while everything else gets updated.

Spent this month selling my Dad's house to fund the Old Folk's Hilton he's moved in to. The cost to spend one's twilight years in a fairly non-depressing place turns out to be well over half a million Aussie dollarydoos, so the family home had to go. It sold VERY quick, the real estate agent says that nobody is selling anything right now so the market is running very hot, (however not so hot that there is much money left over afterwards, much to the despair of one of the ladies from work who cried: "your inheritance is gone!" when I told her about it.)

Am Reading: Several 10 year old copies of EMPIRE in the bathroom (i sincerely have had no time this month)

Am Watching: THE MANDALORIAN. Waiting for Wandavision and the Captain America/Winter Solder one. All the Marvels, actually

Am Playing: No time for that, either. My PC can probably handle Cyberpunk 2077 but my time-poor self cannot.

Music: No time, really.

Am Writing: Had to put everything on hold. I will fire up the engines in the new year.
