Working Wednesday- I always loved the music from King Solomon's Mines, even though the movie is rubbish (albeit something of a guilty pleasure) - it's a great fun Jerry Goldsmith score.

And since I'm writing about the search for this legendary location today, it's an appropriate musical medley....

Today I am mainly writing about:




Well, I may as well have this on as background, given today’s writing subject…

Writing advice from the late Elmore Leonard, who died yesterday.

Research is important- here is Netley, the Victorian Military Hospital where Dr Watson was trained as an army surgeon. The chapel in the the third picture is pretty much all that remains of it, after it was demolished in the 1960s.

Since The War Of Horus And Set is out, and We Will Destroy Your Planet is done and slated for a Halloween release, my what you might call production slate is as follows:

Fiction:
A Study In Steampunk
The High Jump
The Fall Of Grace
The Last Poor Knight

Nonfiction:
Beautiful Monsters: Special Edition
Standard By Seven
A Haunted Corporation
Lore Of Kobol: The Big Frakkin Book Of Battlestar

Co-written with Lesley:
Wizards: From Merlin To Faust

There's probably something I've forgotten...
