Jody Daniel: Blog

Hi all!

And so Monday rolls around again. Great! I love Mondays. Why? Because I don’t need to get up before the sun and join the rat race! LOL!!!!!!

I hope you are all okay and feeling good.

I have been experimenting with 2 new websites, but yeah... they are all a little disappointing. You need a Ph.D. in nuclear science to get anything done and uploaded. So, for the time being, my external blog will be updated and running.

I intend to upload a video of Kait, Adrian and some other things to that blog, but will let you know when it is done and uploaded.

Here is chapter 19 of “Let the river run.” Have fun and Enjoy!

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
The new project is not going well. I think it will all start to come together when all the action in “Let The River Run” fades a bit. LOL! NO SPOILERS!

On the other hand, I think I’ll just scrap that project and start something new. I’ll get back to that project later. So back to the drawing board... Sigh.

Here is chapter 18 of “Let the river run.” Have fun.

Enjoy.

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
And here we are at Tuesday. LOL!!! I hope the new SOL servers will be good. Those guys really worked to get it all up and running.

ORIGINAL MONDAY BLOG ENTRY:
I hope you are doing well, are safe and in good health.
And while “Let the River Run” started off with a storm and flood, that in fact did take place during January and February this year in the Kruger National Park, there was some devastating floods in the Western Cape, South Cape, and Eastern Cape not so long ago. It left 11 people dead and huge infrastructure destruction. One woman died when a tree fell on her car. Sad...

My niece send me pictures of the damage on the farm she works and lives on. Three bridges out and had to be rebuilt so they could reach cut off workers and other families in the valley. They even had a foot of snow down in the valley.

I send that pictures to my editor and he suggested I send my niece a link to “Let the River Run”. I don’t think she would appreciate it.

But slowly life returns to normal.

Here is chapter 17 of “Let the river run.” Have fun.
Enjoy.
Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
OKAY! Please take note: I will not be posting two chapters a week from now on. The Monday chapters posting will still go ahead as normal.

The reason is that I am working on another project and thus need to devote may attention to that project for a while. It is very intensive with a lot of research on the graphic development front. There is new techniques I need to master. So, please, just give me some space to develop this stuff. You will enjoy it in the end.

And NO. “Let the River Run” is not done yet. There are a few more chapters that are also on the drawing board.

Here is chapter 16 of “Let the river run.” Have fun.

Enjoy.

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
And so winter has just dropped onto us. Beautiful clear sky with temps in the high twenties. The next day, winter! Rain for days and ice winds from the south. But I suppose it is our turn... Sigh.

In the famous words of the “Richard, Duke of Gloucester, in Shakespeare’s play: “Now is the winter of our discontent. Made glorious summer by this sun of York; And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house, In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.”

I will look at the bright side; it will be spring in 4 months' time...

Here is chapter 15 of “Let the river run.” Have fun.

Enjoy.

Bye 4 now!
