Got the dreaded block but over it now.

After finishing The Book Of Pain and Three Hoodies 3 in such a short time, I was a tad peeved that I got the block on Spawn Of Kongomato. I haven't written a word all week. Luckily (in the middle of the night as usual) I found a way out, so the adventure continues. Now I should be able to finish the last 100 pages or so in 7-8 days. This is the cover I've chosen for H3. I've tweaked it a little and unless I get anther brainwave; this is the one.






    I was going to take a couple of weeks off then get back to editing, cos'  love editing, no really; that's when the story really begins to shape up.  But then I thought, what the heck, so I'm going to finish Old geezers:................ Haven't thought of the second part of th title yet. I've been waiting to do this for two years so while I'm on a roll, why not. It's the only one I haven't thought of a cover for yet. I'll leave that until I've finished it. Something will come to me since, although I know how it will end, leading me nicely into book three, I have no idea how I'm going to get to the end.

    I've come up with a fresh and hopefully new way to provoke and solve a paradox. I now that's a contradiction in terms but really, there's no one to prove me wrong since that's the nature of paradoxes, and why they feature so heavily in my Old Geezers novels.

  1. Nice. I like the way it's lifting off. I do think we sometimes just run out of steam and our creative side shuts down for a rest.

    1. I began the wind up to the end today. I can't wait. Blood and guts cometh.

  2. It all sound very exciting Roger, especially the bit about Spawn! I like the cover on 3 hoodies 3, but it does rather remind me of the night bus in HP - I don't know why. It just does.

    1. I wanted a normal, everyday bus but in a different...well you'll have to read it. I tried other colours but red is the only one I could really mess about with.
