K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

Hello from the sunshine of the garden and welcome to this bank holiday edition of K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge, this week curated by K’lee and inspired by his prompt; Copper, silver and gold.

The very first thing which occurred to me when I saw that, was money. So I went with simplistic but artistic today and grabbed the first three coins that met the criteria, cleaned them up a bit and, after a bit of digital fiddling, voilá, copper, silver and gold

I’m sure K’lee will have something precious to show us, HERE.

But now it’s time for you to add to the treasure trove…

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Hello and welcome to a gloriously sunny bank holiday weekend, the perfect time to give you a prompt for Monday’s edition of K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge, this week provided by K’lee, who chose; Copper, silver and gold.

Another rather broad spectrum of inspiration for you this week, so let’s see what you can conjure up for us when we meet back here on Monday.

Relaunch, republish, reissue.

The Wrong Stuff is back!

Yes, my debut novel is returning from its sabbatical. I regained the rights to my work in November and finally got around to navigating CreateSpace’s publishing website on my phone at the weekend.

There will be a slight delay until the paperback is available (I’m waiting to approve a proof copy) but the Kindle edition is out now and I have priced it at a very reasonable £2.50.

*** BUY IT NOW AT THIS LINK ***

Here’s the blurb, for those of you who somehow missed it the first time round…

The Wrong Stuff, a totally improvised novel, uniquely created from writing prompts.

Hannah Meredith has always had a good eye and she’s a veteran bargain hunter, but she isn’t prepared, when she buys the box marked “Stuff” at a mysterious auction, for her world to suddenly unravel into a series of increasingly bizarre and terrifying events.
Soon on the run from a sinister cabal of vengeful corporate villains and their homicidal henchmen, Hannah must foil an evil plan to bring the world to the brink of global economic collapse, all the while keeping one step ahead of her pursuers.
A fast-moving thriller with a sci-fi twist, the plot stretches from chases through grimy backstreets of Victorian London back to the present day, where sudden violence shatters the tranquility of the English countryside.

Following Hannah and her unlikely allies in their frantic attempt to stay alive and save the world from disaster, The Wrong Stuff is exciting and original, with more than a touch of black humour.

And here are the reviews from its original release.

Go on, treat yourself, you won’t regret it.

K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

For today’s edition of K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge, I asked you to; Guess what this is, and I’m hoping that you’ll pose us some photographic puzzles with your images this week.

I have decided to show you just the edited shots first, to see if anyone can guess what they are, then I’ll update the post later and reveal the big picture, so to speak.

(I’m posting this at 06:00 Monday, I’ll update at 18:00, that should cover most timezones, I think)

So with no further explanation, here is my badly cropped selection.

What d’you reckon, did you get any of them right?

K’lee will attempt to mystify you with his post, HERE.

But now you get your chance to befuddle us.

*****

Update – Here are the answers;

A massage roller.

A speaker cone.

A pumpkin.

A spotlight bulb.

Cosmic Photo prompt.

Blah, blah, insert excuse here, late again, yeah, I know, etc etc etc…

Today’s prompt for K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge is (finally) brought to you by forgetfulness and bad organisation and takes the form of; Guess what this is.

Ok, off you go, see you Monday.

K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

After some confusion on Friday about who was posting the prompt for today’s edition of K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge, I came up with; Leaf and bud, while K’lee finally arrived with Trip the night fantastic, so you had a choice of one, other or both of those to inspire you.

I went for my own option (mainly because I’d already taken the photos by the time K’lee posted) and captured the rapidly unfurling leaves and flowers in the short-lived sunshine of the weekend, along with a few other shots I couldn’t resist.

I’m sure K’lee will have something wonderful for you on the theme of fantastical nights, HERE.

However, it is now time to see which road you chose.

Cosmic Photo prompt.

I know, I know, I’m late again, but this time I can plead extenuating circumstances; it’s K’lee’s turn to provide the prompt this week and he has yet to post anything, so I’m going to go out on a limb and say he forgot.

Nevertheless, I will gladly step into his prompting shoes for the week and give you a substitute theme to inspire you.

As I am currently sat in the glorious sunshine in the garden, I’ll make it easy and give you; Leaf and bud to play with for the remainder of the weekend.

Meet back here on Monday, ok?

*edit: K’lee has since posted a prompt, which you can find here if you’d like to have a choice of themes.
