And so it ends

2012 has ended. Not with a bang, but with a torrential downpour. I must admit that I was a tad disappointed the world as we know it didn’t end. It would have been quite exciting, and could well have been the fresh start that humanity needed.

It has been a busy year, what with Shattered Lands: Torquemaster Rising finally being finished, the Black Library Weekender – which was awesome – a new job, the martial arts club joining TKDSOE, auditioning for – and getting – a part in a television series, kicking this blog off properly, getting a kitten (two days ago), attending Asylum, submitting to Abaddon Book’s open window, and having a Steampunk birthday. None of which was in order.

I’m sure that there are a lot of things I’ve forgotten, but on the whole it has been a fairly good year, with the usual highs and very low lows. I’m looking forward to seeing what 2013 has to offer, but I will be avoiding the New Year’s Eve japery this year as I’ve over-indulged and my IBS has put a firm ‘no’ on further high jinks. So, I will be having a nice night in with the family, the first NYE that the girls have experienced.

I shall also be putting the final touches to a submission. Happy New Year everyone.
