I just wrote a long post, then had to sign in and lost it and I can't be bothered to write it out again...
Subjects were George RR Martin's A Dance with Dragons, and Jonathan Maberry's The King of Plagues.

update
Not much to say.
Real life interfering with my writing time...
A birthday party for my brother was on Sunday, whole family was there.
Maybe more next week.

update/dream
Didn't write last week, as it was too warm to do anything.
Did a little re-editting of several of my stories.
Last night, or rather this morning, I had a dream. Several people in futuristic clothes were being hunted down in wat I thought was a hospital basement, where large pieces of equipment/whatever was being moved about on overhead rails, crushing those unfortunate to be in the way. They were also finding other victims. It was all very grimy and gory. I had the impression that the new people were a rescue team, but don't know who/what was bumping them off. I, of course, awoke before finding out what was going on.
That's all for this week.

update
I am still here, still trying to write.
Read Christopher Farnsworth's Blood Oath, which I liked a lot. The President's most secret operative in the most secret War on Horror - a vampire!
Been reading up on forums for George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice & Fire, the H.B.O.'s series of the first book, Game of Thrones. Can't watch it on Sky Atlantic or over the internet (really eats up my broadband allowance), so really looking forward to the dvd release, whenever it is.
Trying out a serialised science fiction series, slated for six parts and on part three now, structured as;
Part 1: Introduce the sacrificial lambs.
Part 2: Introduce the villains.
Part 3: Introduce the heroes/rescue remaining sacrificial lambs.
Part 4: Heroes mission.
Part 5: Villains' counter-attack.
Part 6: Climax.
Not quite shaping out as I thought it would, and taking longer than my original expectations (plot progression as opposed to actually writing it) but getting there. Trying for a 5k word count per chapter, slightly over part one, slightly below part two.
I will try to be more regular posting now, even if it's too say nothing.

"Permission to speak, sir. Nothing to say, sir." Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill, Sharpe's Company, tv version.
Want to say something, but have nothing really to report. A new short story started, inspired by Greek mythology, but not saying which one yet. I had kind of planned a series of shorts based on various Greek mythological creatures/beings/characters/Gods/Titans, but we'll see.
Did a re-edit of The Whitby Ripper, still on the wrong side of 5 thousand words...
Until next week, then...
