The other day, I spent an hour or so fiddling with a movie maker, some photos and some royalty-free music, and came up with another reel for my Facebook page. It’s basically an attempt to publicise the books, and I ought to do more; one for the Clearwater series and one for the Larkspur collection, and then, maybe, I should look at the other books, the romances and standalone mysteries and adventures. It’s all rather time-consuming, and I’m not brilliant at working with the video technology, nor do I have much patience when it comes to searching out useable images from the past, but I’ll see what I can do.

I’ve also been working on Holywell Street, and my print of it from the Museum of London has arrived, so I can have that printed and framed (purely for my own interest). I am now up to chapter 10 of the first draft, around 35,000 words, and the mystery is deepening as Jack and Baxter investigate. They are being ‘assisted’ by Ronny in this one, who is keen to better himself, learn about horses and driving, and who is, apparently, on his best behaviour because he wants to have a bedroom of his own. (He’s still swearing, though.)

Here’s the video I made.
