Distraction Free Writing?



I’ve decided that to make some rapid progress on Singularity’s Children Book Four, I need to get my head down for a solid burst of uninterrupted creativity.

Trusted friends have advised me that the quaint, sleepy, Dutch town of Amsterdam would be a perfect off-grid location for some distraction-free writing…
…so I will be heading over there in December.

If any of you happen to be about—flying through, on a city break or just looking for an excuse to visit—and fancy meeting up for a drink on Friday 14th December, let me know!

Reply below or mail me directly.
If you can’t make it, any suggestions for places to meet up are very welcome, and might make it into Book Four…

It would be great to get to know you and chat SciFi over a beverage or two. The first drink is on me!

Teenage Dolphins Get High on Puffer Fish Toxin



I’m not in anyway surprised!

Like us, they are conscious animals facing down a stark, brutal, universe… whatever works to take the edge off.

Bottom line these creatures are people; Singularity’s Children like us
…which happens to be one of the key themes in my books.

Also reminds me of this: “Parrot tells rescuer to F@&K Off!”
