1501 – Landscapes

So, it has happened again. On the book front. I ordered a book; The making of the English Landscape by WG Hoskins, it arrived earlier than Amazon was saying it would, I wouldn’t complain about that.

We were sat at the breakfast table when I opened the package, it was a hazard back version of the book, and it had cost me about £3 as a used but in good condition version. As soon as she saw the book, Elayne said “I’ve got that book”, and went straight to the paperback version on the shelf.

I checked the publication date of both books, in both cases it is 1988, but because paperback versions are released after hardback, Elaynes book had been printed in 1992 – no difference in content though.

And that is the thing. It’s another one of those books that I want to read straight away. It is on my reading list, and it will get read. But first I have to finish Elizabeth (I’m on page 42 of what looks like a 400 page book, and the diary of a bookseller which I am wanting to read, and of course, I am still working on British Political Ideologies. As you can imagine then, my brain is jumping all over the place (normal, I guess).

One annoying technical problem that I can’t seem to fix at the moment. Getting an external mic to work with the iphone. Totally unrelated to the post, but I thought I would just mention it here.

I just want to write, but I prefer to stay away from controversial topics like politics. I am happy to confess that at the moment, I am writing for me. If you enjoy my writings, and I hope you do then that is all the better.

I'm here to work on fiction. Occasionally I'll blog but that's certainly not my focus. You have a specific fiction genre or format you can't find enough of? Ask me. Maybe I got it. I migh share it with you. Otherwise, leave me alone; I'm toiling away at my workbench.
