Well, here we are at the end of a year, which has certainly been a year and a half for me! This is just a quick post seeing as how the new year is but minutes away, but its enough for me to wish you all the very best for 2006 and years beyond. This past year I`ve been to E Europe and back, seen the 3rd part of my Shadowkings trilogy published (and found myself bidding farewell to another editor - best of luck to Ben Ball who`s off to Oz to manage Simon and Schuster out there). It`s also the year in which plans for my next big writing project (a long, long process of revisioning and revising) has come to the first stage of fruition, namely the opening chapters which I`m very pleased with so far - it just remains to see whatever happens next!

Currently, though, I continue my day job at a video shop in Glasgow`s west end, an odd and oddly enjoyable job, tho more regular hours would be nice.

Anyway, to you all - happy new year and see youz next year....and mebbe even at Eastercon!
