Stay safe out there, stay sane. Perhaps everyone will turn around today given the crazy world right now and say April Fools!
•
•
But I doubt it. Final writing day for me today, I hope, but had to share this inspirational quote 👆😁

Thrilled to be past 50k and to have written more than yesterday. I’m also about to go #live again. Find out my top three software/hardware recommendations for #authors as well as the proper way to experience a #sauna which I’ll be doing at home again tonight. Come say hi on my story shortly 👆👆

Day 4 ✅ ✍️ #The26thProtocol

I’m delighted with day one. I’ll do a live video at the end of each day. The first is poster to my story already. So let’s see what happens.

My badge from #spslive 😁😎. It’s day three of this new era... the period of quarantine and home schooling. Brings new meaning to the story behind the plane ✈️ picture from the beginning of this month! 😂
•
•
Today I’m #concepting which, while not a word, is me making it one. I’m playing with a couple of story concepts, fleshing them both out and seeing which comes alive the most. Both will one day be written, but I’m wondering if one of them will be started this month. When stuck at home, write a novel. 😎
•
•
So let’s see how today goes. I’ve never written with people in the house, so that would be new for me if I start this month. Chances are they’ll be home for a few more weeks yet.

“Nothing matches a Tim Heath thriller.”

#ThePrey is the series starter in #thehuntseries. My #FSB #MI6 mash of St Petersburg life meets British intelligence with a political narrative thrown in while offering readers of #thriller novels something they won’t be able to put down until the last page! Want a boring, shallow book? Look elsewhere. My books are never one dimensional but always easy to read!

#thsaywhatyousee2020 new challenge! 👆👆👇👇😷
•
Life from behind the curtain. #Tallinn is in shutdown. Buses barely one third full, shops closed in the shopping centers, those that are open empty (of people). It’s my reflection that the change in behavior of the population is more disturbing than everything else. It makes you feel there must be something wrong. When a human (or human population) changes their behavior and acts in a way we deem unnatural, it makes us fearful. It makes us copy.
•
•
We’re all at home today. That’s normal for me (#writerslife) but not for my wife and girls. Remote teaching and learning for all three has its perks. Day one seems to be going well. It could be many weeks. The author in me wonders this: what if across the world because of homeschooling results rocket? Kids who struggled before improve. Results universally get better. Would the world stay that way forever? Could teachers move countries and still teach their same class remotely? A fascinating thought.
•
•
I arrived late back on Saturday night and despite a form that needed completing and screening for virus (all clear for me) it wasn’t too bad. The border will close this week however. So I’m pleased to be home.
•
•
As for this picture, what might it be?

I’m sat at the airport. I can’t wait to get home. It’s been fun here but there is nothing like home with the family. I return to a country in lockdown from a country in meltdown. News is I’ll have to self quarantine for 14 days on arrival. I don’t mind and work from home anyway. Schools are closed from Monday for at least two weeks, so my wife and daughters will be home with me for company. And the UK has this all to come.
•
•
Don’t give in to fear, folks.
•
•
Always wash your hands.
•
•
It will get better.
•
•
This picture was taken in Sidcup, London. A tree, naturally. I guess most of you assumed that. I thought it looked a rather fetching tree.
•
•
It’s one hour until boarding. One hour until I start closing the gap to home rapidly. It’s been surreal.

It’s my growing understanding that #books are desperately needed to help humanity escape the craziness that the world has become. Especially in the era of #quarantine 😷😳
•
•
Stuck #indoors for 14 days? Why not try #ThePrey which is my series starter in #thehuntseries and at 6 books (with three more coming this year) there is more than enough to get you through your home stay. I’m also in #kindleunlimited so all 15 novels are available there.
•
•
We need escape because life is too messed up to take seriously for now. Travel bans, mass fear, panic buying and countries in lockdown. Yet the pages of a novel gives you access to anywhere. No delays. No restrictions. No infection, aside from the infection of a gripping storyline on your mind. The best type of infection.
•
•
Stay safe everyone. I’m desperately expecting to take my flight home this Saturday. If you do start reading one of my novels, let me know which one you take up in the comments. Plus, as always, make your suggestions as to what the photo is.

A first for me! It’s the underside of #TowerBridge which I got to sail under on a paddle steamer on Monday. I’ve seen bridges open in #stpetersburg but never got to go through one, and never imagined I would get that chance on the Thames either. Great fun.

Even @adrianwills_author might get this one 😂😀

I have to say, it’s hard for me being back in the UK. Is it just an expat thing? Anyone else feel strange being back in your birth nation when it’s no longer home? I’ve changed and so has the nation but not along the same lines. Perhaps it’s just me.
•
•
It’s the shops I find overwhelming. All that choice (but we have choice in Estonia) but it’s more the essentially English food choices (guilt food mostly too). I filled a bag 😋
•
•
So can you see what’s happening in the photo? Comments below as always.

Busy day in London at the @selfpubform first live UK event! As you’ll see James dressed suitably in a full chemical suit. Just in case. I didn’t get to speak to all the people I wanted to, not even a natter with James or Mark. Come all the way from #Tallinn... 😂😀

•
Maybe next year I’ll share the stage with them when this groundbreaking marketing app goes global. 🤓👊
•

Finished the evening with a trip down the river. Met lots of good people. If that included you leave a comment below and say hello. Was nice meeting the very talented @adrianwills_author who thinks I write too many books 🤣 and fellow Brit abroad @stevenmooreauthor who didn’t throw out my idea I posed him... one for the back burner. I met @danielparsonswriter again and learnt he’s my podcast go to guy 😆👌
Plus many more. Now back ‘home’ and ready for a rest.

#ComeSayHello

Probably the only person living in #Estonia at the #spslive conference and though I’m English, I’ve lived more a European for 12 years. Thought I’d be speaking to so many people but I’m lost in this crowd. So say hello. I’m third row, left of stage... and happy to talk. Otherwise I’ll sink back into my cave... 😂

Today I’ve sent my latest book 📖 to my ART group, a 7 person team of expert readers who’ve been part of my process for a while now. #TheActingPresident has gone through its 3rd revision following the feedback from my editor. The ART feedback will produce a 4th revision when the book will go to my BETA group a month prior to publication. These couple of dozen readers will help to spot any final errors and have helpful reviews to post come release, meaning my #readers are guaranteed a clean text free of silly mistakes as well as a few initial and honest reviews to confirm their purchase.

So the snow and soil so many thought might have been in that first picture turns out to be components of my smoothie 😂. Greek yogurt and protein powder in this case.
