Just a quick post tonight, with more to come later in the week hopefully.

The latest blog tour stopover is a guest post at http://www.aspiringbook.com/2013/11/writing-about-past-richard-abbott.html. The topic is “Writing about the past” and is a brief foray (via Star Trek) into the delights of writing creatively within a set of boundary conditions. In the case of Star Trek, the boundaries are set by the franchise holder. For those of us who write historical fiction, the boundaries are the things that are known about the past!

I have also been working on a cover for Scenes from a Life and am so-so happy just now. Needs more work…
