of the Swiss saga - or is it?

Enjoy

To everyone who has supported Gaby by buying the latest volume - you've made the Wunderkind a winner again - she's number 1 in kids sport books ahead of literally dozens of horsey novels!

So thank you again, the next arc is under way which will be much more adventuresome than the first bit!. I hope you're enjoying it, it's quite a challenge writing in three languages!

I've finished writing the first part of Gaby Book 14 and as has become habit it will be available via Kindle and Lulu from Sunday, yes the 25th of October!

Overall i'm running a little behind schedule but not so much I can't catch up! The next segment should be @ 3 weeks away so after a long wait there will be a quick succession of Gabyness for the fans, I hope it's worth waiting for!

The completed book is still due over Christmas / New Year and with a following wind I might have the next Nena out about the same time - it's 2/3rds written already.

Yes, another chapter of Swiss Cheese to munch through.

On another front I can report that Book 14 is coming along, 6 chapters complete so for the impatient the first quarter book should be ready in a fortnight - I'm away this coming week taking a party to look at some Swiss Archaeology.

I've got you a new chapter up!

Sorry for the complete £$%! up last week but I was having a senior blonde moment!

Good news tho - Book 14 is almost 2 chapters long - I'm aiming to have at least 6 by next weekend but its pretty intense as its currently set in Japan so the research is taking up longer than the writing!

More next weekend.

You do? well okay then, here is the next chapter.

Re my website - I know not what is going on there, if anyone does please let me know so I can get stuff fixed, I understand that the invigorated pages are almost ready to go live!

....until I get back from my hols! Indeed the next posting will be in September so once again I offer you 2 chapters to tide you over.

There is something missing from the last few chapters - the illustrations! Sorry about that, I seem to be crap at putting this stuff in so if anyone fancies a go, be my guest (hint, hint!)

So me and Nena are off on our jollies on Tuesday, collecting stories, trying new food, visiting new places along the Dutch and German Fresian coast - hopefully i'll be able to post pictures etc when I get back.

I got that carried away with other stuff this morning that I forgot the file with this weeks chapter - grrr!

i'll get it up asap but it's likely to be next week I'm afraid.

The expected change to my working pattern kicks in this week - back to office hours Monday to Friday for the first time since 2004! This means that starting from next week, updates will be on Sundays not Wednesday. The new fast connection is in and running - thank you Virgin so with any luck a lot of my recent connection issues are now sorted.

Okay so this week things have got pretty weird. Let me try to explain. Last week the bosses at work decided to move the contents of our 2 adjacent stores around - in a major reorganisation which effectively moved me from the store i've worked in for over a decade to the other premises. Well after stuff has settled at least.
Then yesterday afternoon the boss asked to see me and offered me a new job. They must have been reading my mind, it's Monday to Friday no stupid late shifts and a move from sales to stock control.

Later today for a new Gaby publication - Gaby Character Guide.

It's jam packed with illustrations depicting many of the main characters from the main series, covering the first 13 books. There's also a quick synopsis of the Gaby fanfiction as well as some information on locations and the Bond family tree.

So providing I can get an internet connection i'll post more details latert today.
