Holidays

It's been a long time between posts. I've been away up the coast with a "Special friend" and having a very special time. First holiday in years and it was lovely to get the sand in between my toes. Didn't go near a computer or guitar for the whole time. One day was spent at the beach twice and in the pool twice. Racked up a lot of kilometres and saw a lot of NSW. Always surprises me how stunningly beautiful this country is. The area around Gloucester and Dorrigo in particular bear similarities to the Garden of Eden.
Came back to a very sizable inbox and a lot of work and organisation to catch up with.
Have renewed vigour to get the ball rolling this year and get ALL the stuff out ie Blue Valentine CD, Figtree Renaissance Double CD and the "Flora and Fauna" book of Short stories. I'll have to get the skates on bigtime.
Carina is back from Sweden and we are meeting up in Sydney this weekend and might start even doing some shows [Figtree Renaissance] with a pick up Rhythm Section she knows.
I also had inspiration for a novel/set of stories relating to Trees that have been introduced into Australia......Pepper/Willow/Camphor Laurel.......just early days but a good germ of an idea.
To work.
I have to get the second set of 3 stories to Pirie to format with the woodcut title page. He's done the first 3 [Oz, Treehouse and The Cat's Influence] Now I have to pick the next 3 which are ready....or as ready as they ever will be. Work on either Maze Maker/Dysfunctional B&B.
