    Aww, and lovely peeps on here too :) I've been listening to a webinar about selling non fiction books on kindle, I've never heard such an informative webinar, and it was loooooong too - almost 3 hours, and only 20 mins or so was upselling! Got a lot of good ideas, especially about promoting and its timing .... fascinating!

    I had a cancellation for next week as well, so I don't have much work next week - after how weird this week was, I'm really grateful for it - next week, I'll be imitating life as a writer :) it should be good :j

    Got up this morning and realised that the *whole* house is untidy, desperately so - even the living room, which is normally really tidy (if often filthy dirty cos of all the garden muck I tread through on the vinyl :) ).

    So that's the job for the remainder of the morning, and I've already been doing bits, I'm airing the house as we speak, and if I can find a half hour when its not tiddling down, I'll go out for an airing myself ...

    I adore Sean Bean/Richard Sharpe :j:j:j


    From having read the first book, I should imagine Sean Bean was just perfect for the role


    As I've recently got into box sets, I think the Sharpe DVD's will be candidates


    Hope you got out for an airing - we didn't quite manage it. Every time we thought about it, it stated raining again

    Happy New Year KC & company!

    Loving that you've taken yourself out for an airing:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    We had a try at that yesterday - tried to go to a lovely little market in a lovely town but got rained out! - hunkered down beside a fireplace in a quaint old pub instead!

    Hello peeps :hello::hello::hello:

    A box set of Richard will be great :j and he's ever so young in the first ones :eek:

    I *did* get my airing, Cheery, RT, I also got a rinse as well tho as it was really, really throwing it down. I'd sheltered for a while, but I was only at the local village, so just walked back in it and changed all my clothes when I got in :p

    Huge amount of tidying also took place, especially the living room, which makes being in it much nicer, and the rest isn't too bad now either. And I realised I have space for recent French accounts in the main plastic crate upstairs, rather than filling up the living room, so I'm happy about that too :j It's not very kondo-like, but I just don't have the energy for mega events like that, so this is what I do :) its making a difference as well, the last of the double-stacked shelves has become un-double-stacked :p

    Bit more mooching about on here, then I'll have another peek at Sherlock's latest ... hope everyone else has a lovely evening, ready for up and at 'em tomorrow!
