It's amazing what a
little drop of sunshine can do to lift one’s spirits. For the last
few days weather here in Lancaster has been dull, damp and downright
depressing.
Today, however, I woke
to find a bright sky, flowers nodding in the garden and cartoon
bluebirds serenading Schroedinger, my kitten, through the kitchen
window. Okay, so I made that last bit up, but you get the idea.
While the weather has
been grim, I've been curled up on the sofa trying to concentrate on
the latest adventures of Daredevil whilst Mister Meniere's has been
dancing round the living room, shaking his ample booty in my face and
calling me a loser.
So today, accompanied by the first of the spring sunshine, I have donned my fedora and headed
into town to find a sunny seat and start on my next Sam Spallucci
book, Dark Justice. As I sit upstairs in a local coffee shop,
I can see people going about their day-to-day business with a a lot
more bounce in their steps. Their heads are up, looking around at the
newly-illuminated city and gone are the large hoods protecting them
from the elements. Like the first flowers poking up from warming
earth, people are crawling out from under the covers to finally start
enjoying the new year.
This puts me in a good
mood so, in the eternal fight with Mister Meniere's, this round
belongs to me (and those sweet little cartoon bluebirds…)
Don't forget, you can catch up with my writing bits and pieces at the following places:
