The dog did run away again. He got past me, dug up the stuff I'd put in the hole he'd made and scarpered. He was back by morning and I practically ran out the door when it was time for me to go home. That was officially the most stressful day on the job so far. For the first time in ages, Ray and I slept in each other's arms all night last night. Usually one of us gets too hot or my neck starts to hurt (I have a weakness in my neck from when I pulled it a few years ago) so we pull apart during the night. I think I was so desperate for some protection I stayed close to him all night. It was nice. I'd say it might become the norm but I know it won't so there's no point. I overheat when I'm asleep. I'm sure there's some scientific reason for it. I'm cold when I'm awake and boiling when asleep. Weird.

Today I finally did some writing. It's felt like writing is just a hobby I do if I have time lately. Not as if writing is my full-time job, which it is. I hate it when it gets like that. It's all these jobs. I know they're only for a couple of days but it breaks up the routine and then I can't get back to it cos I'm catching up on other things that need doing.

I've uploaded some new photos, which are from various weekends/weekdays I've spent enjoying the sun. There's a lot of the dogs this time round (as if that's not the norm ;D).

I've also become a little obsessed with Good Reads and have been posting some small reviews of the books I've read recently. I always find book reviews helpful when I'm choosing a book to read but I never write any so I thought I'd put that right been as I must have read about ten books in the last month! And a lot of them have been really quirky and very me. Such as Landscape With Animals which is an erotic but has more to it than just that - so rare to find. And Polystom which was both sci-fi and olde worlde - again, extremely rare to find such a mix. It's so nice to find other authors who mix genres like I do. There is hope for me yet :) And even if there isn't it does prove that there are good books out there.

Me & my Pug, Sweepie

I am twenty-five years old and live in South Wales. I am a full-time author, and a part-time dog-sitter. This year I moved out of home for the first time and now live with my boyfriend ♥, Pug Sweepie, and my sister.

my other life



In the game, Oblivion I am an Imperial Lady. I am Master of the Fighter's Guild, and a powerful Warlock, specialising in Shock magics and weaponary. Mercantile and Speechcraft are my two specialist subjects but I have a keen interest in potions-making. I have houses in both Cheydinhal and Skingrad and split my time equally between the two towns. When I was wrongly-imprisoned, I met my husband, a Nord, who let's say wasn't wrongly imprisoned. He's since given up his thieving ways and now puts his skills to use foraging Aylied ruins. My sister, a high elf (we think our mother had an affair!), has now taken over the thieving jobs.

loves

LOOK magazine I collect Look magazine, stationary and Halo figures. I adore Pugs. I'm very interested in designs - including page-layouts, decorations, photography and clothes. I follow politics passionately and support Labour. My ultimate guilty pleasure is The Hills. Durex Elite Condoms are my favourites! I am fascinated by pyschology. I love decorating my rented house with bargain-finds. I like music, films, shopping, walking the dogs and having drinks down the pub. I am also a fan of rugby, supporting Wales and Cardiff Blues.
