I guess I'm the last to know that Office 2019 will no longer be supported. None too chuffed about being forced into 365. I tried it for a month, and I do NOT like it.

Lostprophets singer Ian Watkins dies after attack in prison The 48-year-old disgraced rockstar was serving a 29-year jail term for multiple sexual offences, including serious crimes against young children and babies.

A grim, but not entirely surprising postscript to the piece I wrote in my #truecrime #book The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous & Infamous Criminals.

Is this one of those blow-up dolls?

Thrilled to have managed a bit of work on the novel today. I just wish I didn't have so many other things pending that keep dragging me away from it!

It was one of those two-tea-bags in my cuppa mornings. And no, not intentional.

I think that settlement site's search and claim function has crashed. I've tried 3 browsers and get an error message on all.

I'm pleased to announce that I've just ordered a tempered-glass butter dish made in France to replace the vintage English one I broke.

So tired of all these AI-generated emails from supposed book promoters who promise to make my books into bestsellers if I pay them for their service.

I've been trying to reign in my bad snacking habits (which can go on until 11pm), but I think that ship has sailed. Also had a look online at the latest seasonal donuts at Krispy Kreme. Oh dear.

Thanks!

All I seem to do is deal with issues relating to publishers. It's now to the point that I can't get any actual work done.

Of course the weather today is absolutely gorgeous, so it figures that the farmhouse brewpub I've promised to take @teddytedaloo.bsky.social to isn't open today or tomorrow. And the weather is calling for grey and rain later this week. Supposedly.

Hoping to get some arduous tasks out of the way so I can actually return to working on my novel. Though I've been saying this for weeks... Why is life and business full of so much red tape?

I met a four-legged charmer by the name of Django on my evening beach walk.

Nope. I can already see that glue isn't going to work.

I really hope this day improves. I woke up with a really sore and teary eye, and I managed to break our antique Royal Worcester butter dish. So far several of @teddytedaloo.bsky.social 's UK mates are offering to send us a replacement. I'll see if I can glue it. If not, then...

They are unusual times, indeed - and not in a good way!

The sun came out for the evening and all the doggies decided it was time for their beach walks. I met some real charmers!

Well, it's just that the more they have, the more they're not inclined to part with. I'll still be shocked if they pay up. I expect very little from it, thanks to two publishers who didn't bother to register my copyrights. The only plus is they won't get any money either due to their negligence.

I've come to the conclusion that some people are like bad pennies turning up. Best to just leave them on the ground and walk by as if you never saw them.

In all honesty, do you think anyone is going to get money from this settlement? Surely Anthropic will file for bankruptcy before paying out this kind of dosh! I'll be shocked if they don't.
