New Story Isn’t it funny? Before, when I was office manager for our family construction firm, I always had dozen things to do a day, now I think it’s a lot if I have seven a week! The tasks take longer to complete now though, in general, like finding a new story to write. I […]
Writing My Books Regular readers will know what I’m like by now – if I’m not writing my books or talking to you like this, I’m reorganizing my files or trying to improve them, but writing my books has to take priority. So, I haven’t been posting much recently because I’ve been busy with Behind
Our Family Gathering Our family gathering is not in my mother-in-law’s this year, but in her sister-in-law’s next door but one.

Intellectual Property Theft We all know that intellectual property theft is a big problem, but most of us tend to think first of pirated DVD’s and Asia, or most likely China. I don’t know how fair this is, because for all I know it is a global problem which unscrupulous people in every country

My Birthday – August 14th It was my birthday yesterday on August the 14th. I am a birthday person in that I love to celebrate other people’s birthdays more than Cristmas and certainly more than new year, but I don’t like celebrating my own. This has something to do with with not like being the
