I was reading a story here when I nearly burst out laughing. The author used the terms 'pedestal and mortar' for grinding coffee. He obviously does not realise that a pedestal is what a stone column or a statue stands on.
The correct term is 'pestle and mortar'.
I would have contacted him directly, but he doesn't have that option turned on.

I have completed writing the next Reginald story, so I can start posting it shortly. This is the fault of all you people who ask, "When is the next Reginald story coming out?"
It runs to 30 chapters; that is why it took so long to write.
This miestone means that I am finally free to start on Nowhere Man, Book Three. I have to review the last few chapters of Book Two, so that I can get a head start on where that story left off. It was written so many months ago!
So, don't expect the next Nowhere man for at least a couple of months, as I have no idea what is going to happen (as is usual with my writing).

This is a small piece I wrote 30+ years ago for fun (actually typed on paper!). I am posting it to amuse you while I continue to work on my next Reginald story

Hello, folks. I have been without an internet connection for almost a month. My provider was no help at all, so eventually I switched providers and got a better deal with faster broadband for the same price as before. It takes ten days to do the awitch in the Uk, so today was the day I got back online. I'll get restarted with my posting as soon as I get my feet cleared.

I have posted the first chapter of the sequel to Detoxing. It is called "Detoxed, and so..." and runs to 31 chapters.
I had fun writing this, after readers demanded a follow-up, but please regard this as the end when it finishes, as I have to write the next episode in the Reginald saga.
People have also been asking for a Book 3 of The Nowhere Man. Sequels require attention to detail, as what happened before affects what happens now, and that makes the writing more complicatedm, so don't expect anything more soon. Thanks.
