Today is St Patrick’s Day. It is also my birthday and I feel quite honoured to have been born on this special day. I’m planning a small celebration later after work and another one tomorrow evening. The last week has been particularly difficult with unexpected news of a family bereavement, so I’ve been kind of reeling a little and going through the various stages of disbelief.
However, I’ve done a lot of creative writing and piano work since hearing the news and it was the music that really helped when the phone rang on Thursday lunchtime. I went to work afterwards; I work as a musician. I also forced myself to continue with the novel writing and have managed to complete the latest draft of a psychological thriller. I finished it on Saturday evening and started making plans for another story. Creativity truly helps.
Happy St Patrick’s Day to all my Irish friends.

Happy Birthday!
There’s been a running argument in my family ever since I was born–had I been born in the states, I would’ve been born on St. Patrick’s Day, but I was born across the international dateline which means I was born on the 18th. The people stateside still claim I’m a St. Paddy’s Day baby.
That’s great, doggonedmysteries. Hope your birthday went well tool!
Hey, Happy Birthday Lozza! And Congratulations on finishing the draft of your thriller novel!
Thanks Scribe.
