An end to the diary?

I'm giving serious consideration to ending this blog. As well as taking up time I will increasingly not have, it appears more and more to be a liability. I have a feeling one of my stories was looked upon less than favourably courtesy of a recent post... and it's really not much more than me talking to myself anyway.

Well, for now - I've had a bit of a story idea that might suit Back Roads (which has switched to a bi-annual book format - even more of an incentive). It's to be based in part on a real-life experience, rare for me.

Now it's just a matter of getting my laptop back so I can get to work on it...
