Imagine 1980s Bowie inspiring a 2017 novel set in 1937 Spain?
Blood and Rain:
“José put the Virgin back where she’d been. ‘In private.’ He turned her around, making the holy picture face the wall again.”
Ricochet by David Bowie:
Turn the holy pictures so they face the wall

How Celestina became a pilot:
“She sprinted toward the bomber, climbed through the hatch and hauled herself into the turret. Wrapped her hands around the machine guns, aimed at the enemy planes and pulled the trigger. Downed one.”

I just created the foundation for a novel. A deeply personal work. But I can’t write it yet. Maybe in five years.
Until then, let’s write other things.
Anyone else have ideas they cannot use just yet? A plan way into the future?

There’s something special about holding a book in your hands.
It’s physical, tangible. Something you can touch, lend, shelve, and return to years later. Or give to others, share.

Election Day in the Netherlands. I would go and vote but I can’t. The one thing that might force me to adopt the Dutch nationality at some point. And the fact that Iceland refuses to join the European Union.
But if you can vote, do it!

I’m rather excited. Last weekend, I received proof copies of the Mont Noir and Sky hardcovers, as well as a brand new title in hardcover and paperback.
Tonight, I should have both Blood and Rain versions and the remaining paperbacks.
I may want to create reveal clips.

Celestina plucked the guitar softly, playing some kind of slow lullaby-like flamenco music. It was pleasing, but felt like a soundtrack to a showdown.

Thanks to those that have already bought A Sky Without Stars, where we see her story come to a conclusion!

The world was silent, or at least he didn’t hear it. He closed his eyes. Saw only darkness. Like a sky without stars, nothing to navigate with, no future. His bleeding fingers fumbled for his pack of cigarettes.

Received proof copies of my next novella yesterday. Skimmed though it. Found a typo and my heart sank.
Realised it was in a message one character sends to another and was intentional.
All good then!

Rather disappointed in how inconsistent the KDP print quality is. Ordered five proof copies, one looks perfect, the other four have varying levels of fail.
