Hi folks! Sorry for the long absence. Not only have Roo and I switched hemispheres again, I’ve been crazy busy trying to get my latest sci-fi book finished. I know, I know! But don’t worry, I’ve still got plans outside the realm of exploding spaceships and genetically-engineered assassins. Here, for example, is another of the […]
Okay… hands up if you thought this would never happen? Yes folks, I am here to bring you the FIRST in a series of blog posts dedicated to the fabled ‘Missing Chapters’ – the ones I cut from ‘That Bear Ate My Pants!’ (and all the other books) for a wide variety of reasons. I’ve […]
A picture tells a thousand words, right? Well, let’s hope so. Because I’ve run out of words! I’ve been talking so much these last few weeks that I am literally losing the ability to expel new words from inside of me. So what I’ve decided to do is dazzle you all with the photos we’ve […]
Right, where were we? Next stop was on our grand USA adventure was Death Valley Junction. We checked into the only motel anywhere near there, finding it delightfully knackered and ‘quaint’.

I’ve been hiding from Facebook lately, as even without posting anything I find myself drowning in over 200 notifications per […]
Hi folks! It can’t have escaped your attention that Roo and I have, in fact, made it as far as America. Oh yes! We are here, in the big US of A, doin’ what we do best! Which mostly involves screwing up relatively simple things, like using cash machines at the airport. Seriously – don’t […]
Hi folks! So, some of you may have noticed that I have a new book out! I know, I know. FINALLY! Yes, well, after taking me almost a year to write, ‘Shave My Spider!’ turned out to be a monster at over 180,000 words. That doesn’t seem to have deterred people though, and at the […]
Well, it looks like this USA trip is a go! First off, I’d like to say a massive THANK-YOU!!! to everyone who replied, with offers of food, accommodation, adventures, and advice. Every one of you is fantastically awesome, as well as super-generous with your time, your food, and your bedding/garden/sandpit/daughter’s tree-house. So, like they say […]
So, by now one or two of you might have heard me mention my SECRET PLAN on Facebook. In fact, a few of you have already weaseled the details out of me! Let’s face it – I’m crap at keeping secrets, and I can’t keep this one any longer. So here it is: I’m coming […]
