Thank you. I've struggled ever since my dad died, possibly because he and Robbie are so inextricably linked in my mind. I'll have bursts of writing, then bog.

I'm hoping for brighter things in 2016.

Every story has been like pulling teeth

Boy, do I hear that. Though I'm sorry it's like that for you. It was for me last year too.

I would've put Lewis on my 'favorite show of the year' list, but it hasn't aired here yet! So I haven't seen the last series. Still waiting for that.

I hope you get to see Lewis soon. So much pretty.

Thank you--I hope so too! Though I know I will have many many feelings. (Or, as my kids say, "all the feels.")

"Forever " ending was a big disappointment.

And many congratulations to your daughter for the PEAC programme.

I live in hope that Netflix or Amazon might pick Forever up, like Amazon did with Ripper Street.

Thank you. She's very excited.

The artwork for To Those That Walk in Darkness was indeed stunning. It's wonderful to see a great story also get fantastic artwork.

I hear you on the sleep :( For me, as you know, it was sleep apnoea; I would apparently sleep through the night, maybe with waking a few times, but would wake completely unrested and with a splitting headache. Getting that sorted has made a huge difference for me. Have you talked to your doctor? A referral to a sleep specialist may help.

Happy new year!

My doc wants me to sort out a great many things. The only part of my body working as it's supposed to is my pancreas. I'm on a raft of medications to control a number of issues. I'd have to see if I could get a care plan referral for a sleep specialist. (A care plan would give me subsidised appointments - I can't afford private health cover - but not all services are covered.)

Happy New Year to you too!

I adored To Those Who Walk in Darkness--that was an excellent read.

Congratulations on your daughter getting into a gifted and talented program. I've enjoyed seeing her on Twitter doing science--that's awesome.

A lot of things didn’t go as planned, but that’s life, not failure. Oh, I like the way you put that!

Hope you and yours have a wonderful new year!
