After 8
...shower gels keep on getting weirder. The one im using at the moment is "chocolate and mint"....I smell a bit like an After Eight. Bizarre. And while I had NO REASON to share that, I will go on to point out that I dont even like the combination of choc and mint, as something to eat. Even more bizarre.
And moving on...imma gonna share some other stuff thats hopefully not so TMI.
Writing wise im being adventurous. Im idly editing a story that a wrote ages ago, that I intend to post on Smashwords once its ready. I'm also merrily being all fanboy-ish and writing a Warhammer 40k short story that I'm going to punt off to Black Library since their submissions window is open. I figure its worth a try, and since im writing the story regardless, I have no reason not too. "Pawprints" isnt going anywhere particulary fast, but thats because I want to do it right rather than just battering it onto the page. Its a larger project than I'm used to writing, so I'd like to take my time.
I've also started dieting. Sort of. I don't eat much at the best if times these days, but when I do its generally not good, so I'm trying to sort that. Wooo.

I like smashwords, I think it’s a really good site for budding writers to get something out there. Make sure to post once you’ve put it up. I’d love to chuck it on my kindle for a read through. Also good luck with the 40k submission.

Sounds like life is full at the moment.
I have no idea why mens shower gels are getting weird although I did share the new Old Spice add with Patrick which made him laugh.
Good luck with the writing projects.

It would probably not be a wise idea for me to get a chocolate flavoured shower gel, that way leads either to me drinking the gel or cannibalism.

LOL. Holler when you need a hand to get stuff up on Smash – I’ve been working with them for a while now (as you know) and I know all of the formatting foibles now. And I’ll promote you too of course.
As for the shower gels, I kinda like it. I’ve got seriously girly spray (so not like me) that I actually quite like.
Dieting – yep, me too. No cola, no caffine after 6pm, lots of housework, dancing. Thinking of taking up Yoga and Zumba, if we don’t get to do what we’re planning immediately next. It’s all good.
And being a fanboi is fine. Just remember to keep trying original stuff too

Sounds like a good plan.
Give a shout when you’ve got your story up on Smashwords so I can grab it!
Dieting? What’s that? Hehe, sorry – I took the opposite approach and just decided to start exercising a lot more. I love my junk food a little too much to give it up…
Good luck with everything.
