Hi all!

I do hope you are good and well, and healthy.

So far so good! All seems well on this side of the pond, despite what everyone else thinks. The days are heating up and now it runs around 35 Celsius. Clear skies and no wind.

With life keeping me busy, the writing goes a little slow, and I am only halfway with chapter 11. But, in the meantime, don’t let me keep you waiting, as there is much happening now. Here is chapter 10.

Enjoy!

Until next time.

Keep well!

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
It might be an advantage to stay near an airport or even a toll-gate, as for the past couple of weeks, we did not experience any power outages during the load shedding by Eskom. Yes, I have power, BUT the Cell Towers are getting power cuts. No battery backup, because the batteries has been stolen! Grrrrrrr! (And they call South Africa a first world country!)

So at least I can drink coffee, make something to get the old tummy quiet, cut the lawn, play a game on the PC, and write. BUT no internet to communicate with the world out there.

Oh, well, At least I have power! The internet can wait a bit. So sorry if I’m late in answering your mail.

AND, you are catching up with me! Here is Chapter 9, and Chapter 10 ain’t off to the editors yet. Oh, Boy!!

I do hope you are good and well, and healthy.

Until next time.

Keep well!

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
Herewith chapter 8 of “To Cheat the Devil.” Poor Roxy! Ag shame... But read for yourself. It seems like she can’t win.

Working on 2 chapters at the same time is getting me down. I have to keep reminding myself with what chapter I am busy with. Getting pictures ready for the chapter coming back from the editors, posting it, and writing on the next chapter, only to find stuff that will be good for the next, next, chapter. I wonder what those guys and girls who do this for a living feel?

Anyway, this does keep me out of trouble. (LOL) AND, it is fun! I hope you like it too!

Until next time.

Keep well and stay healthy!

Hi all!
Herewith chapter 7 of “To Cheat the Devil.” Things are moving a bit on the action side of the story. I do hope you enjoy it.

With all this load shedding going on, I am now loosing 6 hours of internet per day! That just leaves me a small window to upload. So, don’t despair, stay with me.

Thanks for all your e-mails. It is appreciated. I just hope I answered them all and did not leave someone out! Please forgive me if I did.

Until next time.

Keep well and stay healthy!

Bye 4 now!

Hi all!
Chapter 07 came back from the editors with a big RED note! DON’T DO THIS!!! The cliff hanger ain’t fair! Okay, so I rewrote the end of the chapter and (evil laugh) put in a curve-ball. It makes things a little funny in chapter 8, and lead to some interesting assumptions. LOL.

BUT, here is chapter 6. Enjoy!

Until next time.

Keep well and stay healthy!

Bye 4 now!
