Sorry, but real pirates didn't all look like Keira Knightley and Johnny Depp - though some might have been able to carry off the odd frill.
Got to see the third instalment of Pirates of the Caribbean a week or so ago. I'm just not too sure about it.
I'm back from Auckland and recovering from all that talking and reading and making stuff at Storylines.
I'm heading back to Auckland next week for the fabulous Storylines festival and a few school visits.
We've all gone a bit daemon mad, with the imminent release of the film of Philip Pullman's The Golden Compass (you might know it better as Northern Lights). In his imagined universes, everyone has a daemon who is their other half, like an external soul: sometimes it's their better half; sometimes a reflection of their true selves.

I've just finished a few last minute changes to book three in the Swashbuckler series: The Silver Swan. It'll be off to the printer soon.
It's lovely on the island at the moment. The pohutakawas (NZ Christmas trees) are in flower and the sun is - finally - out. Yesterday I sat on the beach in the sun and ate fish and chips, which is my idea of heaven, and now I've got a bright pink strip of sunburn down each leg. I look like a licorice all-sort.
