A sennight pair to go!

This is high-falutin' Half-Continent speak for two weeks to go! - well a little over two weeks, but close enough for the call!

"To go till what?" I hear you not actually ask, because this is a blog and I am in my wife's study typing it, all on my own, just me and the terror of the blank page. But I shall answer anyway, because conducting pretend conversations is professional risk; it is just a little over TWO WEEKS until Lamplighter officially hits the shelves in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and US.

Very excited, though it must be said that it is a rather small deal in light of Tibet and China and that blasted torch-thingy - where I do not believe sport can some how be mysteriously separated from politics as if one part of human existence could be hermetically seal away from another, or the infuriating egomania of Mugabe and all the misery he inflicts - watching such transparent deception and manipulation is so infuriating it makes me want to roar.

Anyway, welcome to a new week.

I tell you what i think D.M Cornish Mr.Cornish should do a master of elements through a scientific sense e.g a shadow user would be able to collect negative energy particles through special absorbsion pads or collecters on thier hands from and 'exotic creature' and a fire user able to collect positive energy particles What do you think Mr.Cornish Maybe you could do a poll? People would be able to say what they like

My first thought was, still not May then. Very exciting stuff all the same. I would imagine it's ten times more exciting and infinitely more nerve-wracking for you of course.

Don't think of it as being a small deal. Think of it as being a little snippet of good news to help balance out all the bad.
