“Oh my gosh, this is actually happening,” I heard Alicia mutter excitedly under her breath. In the months leading up to our enrolment I occasionally caught her reading what I’d later learn was a series of romance novels se...

Author's Note: We are officially back. There will be many posts over November. I was meant to be back sooner but needed to travel again. Dad has growths in the lung and grandma is waiting on the healthcare system for a specific diagnosis on her flavour of memory deterioration. There is not much else we can do right now, though. ...

Author's Note: Thank you for the continued support, it means the world to me. Mum remains in high spirits as she settles into the new drug regime and continued testing; heart monitors and whatnot. It is an odd feeling. In some ways, it feels like the worst of it is over since the immediate threat is behind us. In others, it feel...

Author's Note: Thank you all for your continued support, it means the world to me. I am back home and relieved that things seem to be on their way to a semblance of stability with my mother.

Author's Note: An update for folks. It was a transient ischemic attack, more commonly known as a 'mini stroke'. There's been testing, meetings with doctors, all that sucky stuff. Fortunately there are steps that she can take to reduce future risk, but quite frequently mini strokes are omens of bigger ones down the track. I will ...

Good morning everyone. I say morning, because technically 4:00am is the morning, but I have not slept.
It is not often I regret taking some time for myself, as I did last Friday for a spontaneous date night, but the subsequent shitstorm has left me regretting not putting in the editing work I put off. Our housemate brought back this year'...

Author's Note: Once again, thank you all for your continued support. It means the world to me. This chapters puts us at ~75k words for Book 2. Book 1 clocked in at about 150k and I would say we are tentatively at the half-way point of Book 2 but I expect it to be a bit longer given my plans for the final stuff.

Author's Note: Hey folks, as a quick aside, I think I might be cursed. There will be a bonus chapter at some point to make up for last Friday. I got sick. Again. How, you ask? By getting out the house. I went to visit the Sydney botanical gardens - would recommend, by the way - and probably caught something on the train. Smash c...

Author's Note: Thank you all for your support. It means the world to me. Chapter is a little late today. I lost track off time fiddling with an idea I had last night - yet another future story to add to my pile of W.I.Ps until I finally decide which one I want to make my primary focus after WWB.
