I walk past these guys every Saturday on the way to volleyball: (I wish I could find the artist, but random graffiti covers up the signature, quite annoyingly).

Construction workers across the way are really cranking the radio today - so far, I've heard glimpses of Hall & Oats, Tom Cochrane and Belinda Carlisle between the jackhammers etc

Four kinds of cheesecake this week!! Reason being that I'm celebrating something that I'll mention soon (not publishing-related stuff). However, my excitement has now officially been overwhelmed by sugar and diary XD [Insert Homer's "64 slices of American cheese" gif]

Jinjer played Festival Hall (here in Melbourne) a couple of nights ago - and they were monstrously good! I took a few pics, and though I had to use the digital zoom on my phone (and so the pics aren't great) I got lucky with the timing of one :D

I should probably promote Book 1 or the prequel - since that's where a new reader would likely to start :D (The Amber Isle was recently described as “pulp fantasy with a modern flair”, which is perfect, especially as I had Indiana Jones in mind when planning the series :D)

Got an acceptance at Modern Haiku - something I have tried to manage on and off for maybe a decade? (Feels nice to get get over the line, especially in the lead up to my next collection)

Currently working on designing the banners for each Indie Poetry Sale participant! Don't they look cool so far? It may seem like a lot of unpaid work to some, but I enjoy graphic design and I really love doing this. 1/2

55 days to go! I don't think I'll count each and every day (or even week) downwards from this point - but it's still nice to have a date ready to go :D (Watercolour painting by the amazing Marcel Mosqi)

Another book-related batch of awfulness online and I have no idea who any of these people are. Ultimately, I'm glad. However, if I were more informed, that way I could at least avoid accidently supporting the bad eggs.

Three matches of volleyball last week - two on hardcourt, one on sand. My knees very, very much appreciated the match on sand! (However, I was garbage there - could barely jump XD)

One thing I sometimes forget about the '90s is how desperate 'fans' were to accuse (or prove) that a band was selling-out. And not even for something like licensing a song to an evil corporation (of course, usually a decision by the owner of the rights to the music - not always the band) 1/3
