I'm a bit of an eclectic mess 🙂 I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

@Miteroni Wow! That’s a lot for a month you took off writing 🙂 Unless of course, you didn’t write the stuff you published in January … in that case, my bad.

You should do this kind of thing more often since I had no idea you had all this stuff there for reading. Going to go bookmark them so that I can read over the weekend. Or maybe have a pinned post on your profile with ongoing stuff you’re writing and perhaps a brief summary so that people know what you’re writing right now?

It’s the descriptions you had above which piqued my curiosity — hence the suggestion of a summary in a pinned post 🙂

@at LOL. I have to admit that I posted about that one partially because of the title. I assume that they selected that title on purpose because the alternative is that they have no idea what that means and that would be a … self-fulfilling title? 😛

@AngelaPreston Thank you 🙂 My trouble usually is that once I start thinking about writing, the characters start taking over and I get so many scenes playing out in my head that there’s no way to turn it off … I wish they had a brain - computer interface so that I can just sit there and let the computer transcribe everything but alas, I guess I’ll just have to type it all out myself 😛
