Much to the amusement (I expect) of some of my good friends, I am going to reconfigure book one. Again.
Mainly this is because I’ve decided it needs to be a bit easier to follow. And the work I’ve done on book 2 suggests that it would be good to have a single coherent storyline for [...]

All Righty
My first rejection
Unfortunately the publisher I sent parts of the manuscript to have passed, with this pleasant (and rather quick) letter to that effect:
Thank you for sharing your work, The Grand Adventures of Daisy Donnie, with us.
Unfortunately, this manuscript is not quite what we are looking for at this time.
Please keep us in mind for any future submissions.

Very neat: book 1 submitted for consideration
I’ve gotten off my ample arse and started submitting DaisyDonnie to publishers.
The first off the bat is Edge and Tesseract books in Canada who specialise in Science-Fiction and Fantasy novels. One of the major problems I’ve had with Daisy Donnie (other than a singluar inclination to actually buckle down and submit the book to a [...]
That’s better
DaisyDonnie has been suffering of late. I haven’t been here for a good month what with being busy with writing lots and lots of words in the right order to make new stories.
But a facelift was in order, and I hope you like it. No longer are there the interminably long menus, dropping off the [...]
Old Sci-fi
When I was little I absolutely loved a particular TV show. I don’t know why I did, whether it was the stories, the hardware, the fact there was a woman in a lead role, the man in charge or simply the concepts. It was the first TV show I actually noticed and my first experience [...]
I am writer, hear me scribble
It’s been a few weeks — well, nearly a damn month — of hard work and supposed cashy money to offset the lack of creativity. Course, I’ve written four short movie scripts which I’ll post in a subpage on the site, but other than that there’s been no DaisyDonnie action whatsoever.
This is about to change [...]
Beware the scam
I and my good friends once owned a domain. It was a nifty domain (think it cost us $30US for a year at the time). It was for a street magazine I’d conceived on the flight back to OZ from the UK.
We let it go. There simply wasn’t the time to keep the magazine going [...]
Famous last words…
Yesterday I made an astonishing (at least to me) announcement:
Just realised I’m only 4 or 5 stories from the end of book 2. OMFG…
Then I did a wordcount and found that it wasn’t quite so cut-and-dry.
I’d made the miscalculation (as we say in the trade) based upon the number of stories written for book [...]
Site makeover
As regulars to the site can possibly, tell, we’ve got a new look for the site now.
This came-about because — as one good friend mentioned — the site looked great but it wasn’t easy to work-out what was content and what was sidebar stuff.
Hence the use of the new site design, which I must say [...]
New and improved…
Here’s the Google Analytics report for the month of August.
It’s quite interesting if you like that sort of thing — albeit only two weeks since the last discussion.
I’m happy to note that the site has become an attractive place for Porn surfers, with impressive keywords like…
