Thanks all. And last night I got sent the proofs for another big feature, this one in Aeroplane, for a potted history of the Grumman Avenger. So It looks as though September-October will be a decent spell for my publications, which is nice as this year hasn’t been all that great so far.
Anyway, we’ve heard quite enough about me – it must be som…[Read more]

Both – the magazine is only available online but in digital or hardcopy form. The hardcopies are really nice – small format, perfect bound, halfway between a magazine and a book. Website here

I’ll start, just to kick things off here. I’ve just been looking over the proofs of a new article that will be published in the next issue of The Aviation Historian journal. It’s about a rather wacky American scheme in the late 1940s and early 50s to create seaplane fighters and bombers that could operate from temporary bases in isolated bays,…[Read more]

Hi John, nice to see you. You have a great pattern. Mine was a sort of muddy grey-brown

It didn’t take until ten o’clock on this Bank Holiday Monday morning for someone on social media to call me an ‘unemployed bum claiming to be a writer’

“The title is ‘24 Unread Messages‘ and the theme is going to be emails that people wanted to write but never actually sent. For many of us, emails have become a normal part of…[Read more]

Exciting stuff! Are you allowed to say any more about it at the moment? My writing’s going OK thanks. Got some good feedback on my on-again, off-again WIP which has helped with the enthusiasm. Getting ready for the release of the second William the Conqueror novel Jillybean and I co-wrote

Hmmm, yes, I see what you mean. I’d used it to change my profile pic and background pic but not any of the actual details

Oh, and a litle tip if you hadn’t picked up on it already – if you click on ‘Activity’ at the top, you get a Cloud style ‘wall’

Hi Philippa, thanks for dropping in, great to see you. How are things going with the novel etc at the moment?

Btw if we can’t make ‘Activity’ the home page, could we add a line on the home page welcome to the effect of ‘click on “Activity” to see the latest posts and updates’ or something like that?

One of the options is ‘profile’ and if you click on that, there’s an option to edit it. It’s pret…[Read more]
