Agh!!  Small apology to many of you for being so behind on emails, LJ etc.!  I've been completely manic here the past few weeks (new release...and then, signing a contract for a new novella that needs to be delivered by the start of Sept. Agh! AND WHY DOES MY IDEA OF A SIMPLE PLOT INVOLVED TIME TRAVEL???  I needz my head examined.) 'tis a shame, as

The beginning of September, plenty of time as long
you don't stop to eat or sleep and live on nothing but
coffee and Red Bull!!!!! Unless of course the whole time travely
thing isn't just a plot device?!? (could it be a boffin at
Southampton University has discovered the secret that has eluded all
but the Gallifreyans?).

I can't get into Game of Thrones, everyone
else seems to love it. I must be missing something
just don't know what!

[kayberrisford]

It's kind of a plot device that i LOVED on paper. The first few chapters have proved trying to say the least, though ;) I *think* it's coming together again, though...I'm starting to love it once more. well, a bit ;)

Chris loved Game of Thrones possibly more than me, but I got really into it, just because I love something totally escapist and epic. I can't say I'm totally in love with it or any of the characters, but I'd enjoyed book 1, then got a bit bored with book 2...but apparently the TV series is even better.

This was me by the way! *waves hand frantically* :)

[kayberrisford]

I thought so - *hugs*!

But it's always nice to see a pretty Markie and be sure :D :D :D

Well I did write a response to this but I wasn't
signed in so it may or may not turn up?!

Mentions of Red Bull and Gallifreyans and my not
getting into Game of Thrones, nothing much! ;)

Because time travel shenanigans are FUN!

[kayberrisford]

Oh yes...headache inducing, but fun and twisty nevertheless. I've had to make one of the chars a physics student, 'cos if he explains/handwaves all the twistiness, it's okay, right ;)

[dracothelizard]

Just have one of the characters go 'I DON'T CARE ABOUT HOW IT WORKS' or zone out during the boring explainy bit :D

[kayberrisford]

They might well end up doing that. Time travel is just an excuse for al fresco sexing anyway :P

AND WHY DOES MY IDEA OF A SIMPLE PLOT INVOLVED TIME TRAVEL???

Because you are awesome?

[kayberrisford]

Actually, because I'm a total masochist. And I want to be stressed all month, rather than relax in Tuscany. haha, yes, I'm me ;P

[wolfy_writing]

Well, I'm surprisingly good at sorting out time-travel logic, if you need and advising.

[kayberrisford]

Ooooh, yay!! I probably be in touch - thanks :D

Newt!!! :-D

[kayberrisford]

I will upload the little vid as soon as I've found a way to get it off my new phone. I hope the quality is as good as it seems - I want to identify the little chap :)

I'm fairly certain that my new newts are the babies of the ones I acquired earlier in the year. It would be rather unlikely for youngsters of a completely new species to have turned up without prior sightings. But it would be nice to have representatives of all 3 native species frolicking around in my pond. Do you know which species are supposed to be in your area?

[kayberrisford]

I think this was a little common newt :) But my parents have had a crested newt, so I think there must be a good vaariety around here :D

Aw, baby newts are adorable. Apparently, there was baby in the pond I was watching, but I didn't spot him. Hope yours do well :D
