Christmas Eve, and I’m having a gentle, quiet and pleasant day. Having purchased a new Apple keyboard – one of the flatter, squarer variety, it’s now a little easier on my fingers to type, plus I’ve just done 1,000 words of fiction. I don’t even mind that they weren’t necessarily exceptional words. They weren’t there an hour ago, and that’s what’s important. I’ll probably aim for an update at some point in the next couple of days, but I’m doing okay right now – this isn’t the Christmas I expected to have six months ago, but I’m thinking good thoughts, and looking forward to good food and watching some cool stuff, both televisual and filmic. Life is treating me okay right now, and I just wanted to wish everybody out there a very happy christmas. See you on the other side of the Christmas divide…
