So here we are at the start of a new year. And what a new year it's going to be...
The breaks for freedom that I started last year have turned into fully fledged escape plans, complete with tunnels carved out with spoons, baggy trousers full of sand and sporty diversions so the Nazi's don't catch on! Of course I'll slip out the occasional update here if I can sneak it past the sniffer dogs.
Basically I'll be packing up my old kit bag and hauling my carcass off to the USA to become one of the locals to The Dark Cloak . This is merely the first step, since we will then continue our plans of buying (or possibly stealing) an island complete with active volcano so we can construct our underground lair and fill it with bustling minions and loudhailers playing spy film music. This will allow us to stride around practising maniacal laughs and devising traps for spys.
Of course, now you have read that I shall have to kill you.
To get to the point of me being a legal resident in the USA I now have to engage in battle with bureaucracy and red tape (boo, hiss!) to get my green card. I hate forms and I hate tests. I am not, as you can imagine, looking forward to the next 5 months, which are going to be one mass of forms and tests after another! But it is going to be worth it. It already is.
And in other new stuff this year... an RL friend of mine has written her first book and asked me to be her editor. I'm in the process of doing that for her now... But she has also signed a contract for a further 5 books, and asked me to edit all of them! Exciting to say the least.
That's pretty much it... of course there are the obligatory New Years resolutions;
Loose weight (always a perennial favourite).
Make more money.
Take over the world.
Here's to looking fabulous and world domination! I think I'll fit in great in the USA
