  • Goodnight Twitterverse! #
  • Ken Levine on believable writing: "On MASH we had medical advisers… just to make sure everything was plausible. And on CHEERS we drank." #
  • Ah… Tweetdeck – how I've missed you!!! #
  • Sorry – hubby came home and hr early but has written me an excel thing to split up my tweets – so here it comes (prob too long) #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire 1/6: She realized now that she was walking with the hip-swaying gait the women had taught her, taking the #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire 2/6: impact of every step in her hips so that her upper body to remained perfectly level and still. Tears #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire 3/6: pricked at her eyes. Even now those warm, strong women who had giggled fondly at her attempts to adjust #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire 4/6: to their lifestyle, and taught her with seemingly endless patience, were helping her shoulder to heal. #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire 5/6: Images flashed through her mind; her friend's bodies thumping to the ground around her, twisted and #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire 6/6: bleeding beyond healing. #
  • #amwritingparty #wipfire I'll do a shorter one next time – never realised how little a tweet actually is! #
  • And now I'm going to go and be nice to hubby, instead of snapping that he's home too early lol! #amwritingparty #wipfire #

  • Okay, time to either write or go to bed. See you on the other side of my decision, Twitterverse! #
  • Okay, some good grappling with my antagonist's desires, and research on immigration fraud done. Time to get some sleep. Night all! #
  • LET RED CLIFF BEGIN!!!!! #
  • Red Cliff was AWWESOME!! There were some parts I'd edit out of Part 1 but Part 2 was WHEEE! Totally worth the 3 year wait! #
  • Starting to wonder, though, is Kaneshiro Takeshi capable of looking at someone in a non-intimate way? I was seeing all KINDS of subtext LOL! #

  • Expected my toenail to be purple-black this morning but it's a vibrant, almost peacock blue – kinda pretty LOL #
  • WOOHOO! Sea shipment arrives next Tuesday – by end of that week this move will be over and I will be #amwriting again!!! #
  • Note to men: Passing a dish or pan through a sink of soapy water & maybe swirling a sponge round it does not magically make it clean. LOL #
  • Note to self: Have pappadums and dip for lunch BEFORE doing the vaccuuming! Hehe. Yummy though! #
  • Will never again complain about hunting for gluten & paraben-free cosmetics – have met someone allergic to Vit E!! It's in EVERYTHING! #
  • 2nd season of Lost & thank GOD the Aussie accents are better – very nearly Australian instead of Sth African or, frankly, nowhere on earth. #
  • Catching up on SYTYCD A #

  • Any sims3 players out there who can tell me where I buy clothes? #
  • Seems our sea shipment is in the country and could be here next week! Now we'll see if all the decorate-by-memory will come together or not! #
  • MX Air mouse is AWESOME! Ah Logitech, no wonder they call you LogiCOOL in Japan! Not sure I should get THIS excited about a new computer LOL #
  • Picked hubby up at airport last night – another nightmare experience with Sydney's civil 'planning'. Those IOC gifts must have been HUGE! #
  • Australia is so weird. 15 mins ago I had to wear sunglasses to put the washing out. Now it's pouring down & me & the washing are wet lol! #
  • And now it's bright blue again! Must be a coastal thing. /sigh #
  • Oh dear, a couple of long sessions of Sims3 and everyone on Lost looks like a sim to me :\ #
  • Apologies to Sydney-sidsers for late afternoon rain. Mea Culpa: I had the car washed :( #
  • Wow Netgear customer service is rude! Hint: if I've had to call, your product has already annoyed me, don't make it worse! #

  • Not much sleep last night thanks to spider the size of hubby's palm skittering about while hubby tried to catch it. Just kill 'em, I say! #
  • We take our steak knives seriously in Australia! http://tweetphoto.com/10284746 #
  • Aching to have this move over so mind and body have room to be #amwriting. Already feel I could sleep for a week and still weeks to go :( #
  • Hee hee chuckle RT @sillybeggar: If "Your Horse Magazine" merged with Playboy, would they include a centaur-fold? #
  • Yes. Yes it is. RT @ajackwriting: Lie to me is awesome #

  • Ooh nice one today: RT @dictionarycom: Word of the Day – distrait: divided or withdrawn in attention, especially because of anxiety. #
  • Just drove to the northern suburbs of Sydney from the southern burbs – seriously, this city has to be the worst planned city in the WORLD. #
  • You know what? Until other people stop fucking up things a moron could get right, I'm taking 'control freak' as a compliment :) #
  • I thought my G11 was a gaming keyboard but THIS is a gaming keyboard! http://tweetphoto.com/10551492 #

  • Australia Day in Cronulla is shameful. Lots of Tshirts reading: If you don't love it, LEAVE :( glad we won't be living here. #
  • In the oddest old department store in Kensington. From outside you'd swear the store had closed decades ago and a warehouse had taken over. #

  • Hey all, very limited internet atm :( House hunting is proving harder than we thought, esp. not knowing the city. Cross fingers for us! #
  • Better log off now to save net time. Later! #
  • Off to see a house in Kangaroo Point Rd. Kangaroo point – how Aussie is that?!!! #

  • Doing some kindle sampling. Seriously, Tablet PC is the BEST ebook reader!! Any format & no nauseous reverse-contrast flash on page turn. #
  • I know romance has a tradition of silly first names, but "Major" takes the cake , it's confusing – and, frankly, ridiculous #rwsw #
  • Woohoo!! Hubby has discovered we can being owe Samurai & Ninja swords back to Oz! I guess with our cavalry sword it's a collection now! #
  • Hmm RSI effecting hand writing on tablet now. Should have been "bring our" #
  • Reading all these first chapter samples is fascinating So many published authors who need too read "how not to write a novel"! #
  • Most common sin seems to be the object/situation which sparks a remembrance which is either irrelevant description, or clunky exposition. #
  • And. wow, tired of reading a blurb thinking: this sounds good just before: "but why does so-and-so avoid the sun? & why is he so pale…?" #
  • Back in Kyoto for a last trip. Doing the temples and palaces this time. http://tweetphoto.com/7187769 #
  • Kitano Tenmangu on market day! http://tweetphoto.com/7188245 #
  • View from room of tea house in hotel grounds. Resting before evening activities :) http://tweetphoto.com/7188471 #

  • Happy Holidays to everyone at #amwritingparty – hope you all have wonderful days, whatever and however you celebrate! #

  • Okay, Hello to everyone for the first tweet chat of the romance writing support group! Do say Hi and intro yourself :) #RWSW #
  • For our first topic we thought we'd discuss Romance novels vs novels with romance in them. What is it that attracts us as writers… #RWSW #
  • And readers (of course) and what are the main differences (loved or hated) about writing one or the other? #RWSW #
  • Hi @MonicaEmme & @SharonGerlach, glad you made it! #RWSW in reply to MonicaEmme #
  • I enjoy the challenge of writing with the restriction that the non-romance subplots must be seen through the romance. Not easy to do! #RWSW #
  • New Wave for #RWSW chat topics made. If I've not added you please tweet me, or ping me! #
  • Whether you are writing genre romance or not, how do you keep your romance from moving too fast? What are you favourite techniques? #
  • Since one should try not to use the same reasons twice in one novel – maybe we can help each other out! #

  • Hello #amwritingparty, just popping in to let you know our first #romance writing tweetchat will begin in an hr! Writers & readers welcome! #
  • Hmm hashtag, predictably, taken so lets make it #RWSW to go with the Romance Writing Support Wave :) #amwritingparty #romance #
  • Hmm Tweetdeck on one screen and Wave open and in active chat on the other… I may have a problem lol #
  • #romance writers and readers! Come share your opinions & tips with aspiring romance authors in our romance writing chat in 15min Tag: #rwsw #
  • Come share your opinions & tips with aspiring romance authors in our romance writing chat in 15min Tag is #rwsw #writechat #amwriting #
  • Okay, Hello to everyone for the first tweet chat of the romance writing support group! Do say Hi and intro yourself :) #RWSW #
  • For our first topic we thought we'd discuss Romance novels vs novels with romance in them. What is it that attracts us as writers… #RWSW #
  • And readers (of course) and what are the main differences (loved or hated) about writing one or the other? #RWSW #
  • Hi @MonicaEmme & @SharonGerlach, glad you made it! #RWSW in reply to MonicaEmme #
  • I enjoy the challenge of writing with the restriction that the non-romance subplots must be seen through the romance. Not easy to do! #RWSW #
  • New Wave for #RWSW chat topics made. If I've not added you please tweet me, or ping me! #
  • Whether you are writing genre romance or not, how do you keep your romance from moving too fast? What are you favourite techniques? #
  • Since one should try not to use the same reasons twice in one novel – maybe we can help each other out! #
