Time is of the Essence





“My Name Is A Number” has been published. It is now available on Amazon kindle store at the special, Christmas, price of 99cents (77p in UK).
The price will undoubtedly increase in January to reflect the fact that this is not a short story but a fully-fledged novel.

Curiously, having been caught up in the excitement of writing “MNIAN” (as we like to call it) I kept the momentum going and wrote two sequels.
These are currently known as ‘MNIAN 2’ and, wait for it, ‘MNIAN 3’! 'Imaginative,' you might be thinking.
These are just working titles because it is by no means certain that these stories will ever see the light of day.
The original ‘MNIAN’ was intended as a ‘stand-alone’ story. It really doesn’t need sequels and, in any case, either both sequels are published or none at all.

Besides, the publisher has other stories to sort out and send to the editor first. There are still some ‘Ruthermore Heidigens’ stories to go as well as ‘Four’s a Crowd’ and ‘Five’s the End’.
This is without the second major novel of the “Adepts: Book Two – Empath”.

Still, they are written. We shall see what happens to them in the future, no doubt.
In the meantime there is work to be done on Book Three of the Adepts, the next ‘Ruthermore Heidigens’ and ‘Deep Space Squadron’ needs wrapping up with, at least, one more chapter—possibly two.
There is pressure from other places to complete the graphics for ‘A Simple Guide To Understanding Jet Engines – Systems’ but there is no room on my desk. I need a bigger desk and a faster keyboard!
Anybody like drawing cartoons?

Now you will see why I need to tender my apologies for being remiss in up-dating this ‘Blog’. So much writing to do. So much time needed in a World where time is just not available.

Thank you for your patience. I shall try to do better in future.
