Popping In For A Cuppa & A Chat

I’m back in Internet land until tomorrow (although I’ll be back again later in the week when I have to send Taken off to the editor), so I thought I should update here while I have a cup of tea.

So… now it’s looking as though I won’t have regular Internet access for the next year. *Cue hysterical laughter* I can occasionally access my email, facebook, etc. on my phone in the new place, but it’s sooooo slooooow and entirely unreliable. I’m mostly bothered about losing my reliance on Dropbox – I’m not the world’s greatest backer-uppererererrr.

We haven’t actually moved yet, but here’s our new view. Yeah, hello there, Irish summer. The view we’re leaving behind is of a couple of blocks of flats, so it’s kind of an adjustment.

See? That’s a big fecker of a field out behind our garden. There are a lot of them around. :D

My brother has me terrified that this one will get mistaken for a fox by a farmer…

And this one is so not appreciating the move.

Look at the stress on her face. :D

Anyway, I might write some blog posts and schedule them whenever I have Internet access. Hopefully, I’ll be able to keep in touch via Twitter or Facebook, but I can no longer guarantee quick responses. On the upside, no net equals less distractions, so maybe I’ll get more stuff done. :)

ETA: Forgot to mention – Smashwords are running their annual Summer/Winter sale. Some of my books are taking part.

  1. I LOVE the view behind your new place, reminds me of Michigan. :)

    HUGE hugs and congrats on both your new book and your move!

    The internet thing…that kind of blows. I’ll miss, ya! But…I know everything EVENTUALLY finds a way of working itself out. I’ll be thinking of you ALL the way over here!!!

    Take Care!

  2. Oh, I can’t imagine life without internet! But I’m a big computer geek, so….

    The view is beautiful! Maybe you should inform the neighboring farmers that your dog, in fact, is not a fox.

    • I’m a geek, too. But I’m kind of looking forward to it. :)

      I wouldn’t have gone with beautiful. Lol. I’ve no idea who owns the field, but hopefully none of the dogs (or kids) escape for a wander!

  3. Hi Claire I’ve just stumbled across your blog after looking to see when your next Ava Delaney book is out :) I got the first one on Kindle free and then became hooked. Your foxy dog looks so cute hope he doesn’t confuse the farmers too much!
