Time to kick ass

There are times in life when good intentions and supposedly well-thought-out plans can leave you feeling somewhat embarrassed by their naivety.

Those who have followed this blog from the beginning (bless you) may recall that it was to be a quick-fire affair, regularly updated, following our adventures in establishing Nemesis as an indie publishing house. The idea was to give readers an inside look at the pitfalls facing such a venture, and sharing our small successes along the way.

Those same dedicated followers will know that, so far at least, it hasn't worked out that way. Posts have been sporadic, and it's been a frustrating time. There are several factors behind the slow progress, most having nothing to do with Nemesis whatsoever; day-to-day matters that have conspired against us (babies, day jobs, writing books, deadlines for other projects, everyday life - that kind of thing).

Yet one of the greatest things about this life we lead is the ability to look at how events have transpired in the past and say 'bugger it all to hell - today we start anew'. And so here we are. With a zesty freshness and a spring in our step, we're going to kickstart this blog from here on in. Regular updates guaranteed.

However, despite the lack of posts here, things have been quietly moving along behind the scenes - Pocket Rocket, cyclist Steve Joughin's autobiography; first issue of the Vertigo anthology; Nemesis website; calls for submissions for other projects - all of which I'll post about over the next few days.

Watch this space...
