In commemoration of my debut book being published next month, I am going to run a competition. The prize will be very sweet and I will post pictures of it here when it arrives. What is it? Ah ha! You will have to wait and see, but it will be sweet and worth playing for. The rules? Post an honest review of my book on Amazon or Goodreads of at least forty words and leave a message for me here. The names of all those who have reviewed will go into a hat and the winner will be selected at random. The competition will run for one month from the date of publication.

Saved by Technology.

Timing is everything. Has anyone thought about what would have happened if the meteor had touched down in the then U.S.S.R in the fifties or early sixties? No web as such and no intricate satelite tracking of incomings. Nervous fingers poised over the retalliation button? Garbled phone messages? People thinking they were being attacked and who could truly blame them?

I am very sorry for the people in Russia for what they have had to endure today and I am relieved no one died. Clean up is happening and help is ongoing. In the cold war days, irrespective of what superpower nation this space rock inflicted, the results could have been horrendous. Thanks to technology and an enlightened approach, this sort of thing, while terrible for a few, is not a catastrophe for the world.

An ancient tourist trap?

This was a picture from an amazing vacation. Yes, it really is Glastonbury Abby. I thought I would post it as I am going to be working on editing my second Arthur book today, if I get everything else done that I absolutely have to accomplish. LOL.
