    Glad to know I'm not the only one who falls into the same trap! Have you managed to bulk up your fight scene yet?

    Hi Stephen,

    Dealing with e-mail this morning, I found Amazon had recommended your Hawaii High Five for me based on previous purchases. Naturally I bought it :-) Wrath had already pointed us to a Kindle for PC app so next 'to do' is to try downloading from PC to Kindle. (No wireless yet but at least I can keep up with Clouders' e-stuff)

    Stephen - had to say 'thank you!' for the post regarding chapter 1! So glad you liked it. Not sure how I'm going to tackle the 'don't write as a woman so much' comment, but will try.
