Symi Harbour in March
A few shots of Symi harbour today: The Herb & Spice corner being done up, the side of the bridge where the old kiosk no longer is, looks bigger in that area now, and some shots of the buildings by the sea. As you can see, it’s still quiet here, the direct flights from the UK and other places have not started to come to Rhodes yet, but we have had visitors over for the day.
I’m slowly getting back into the swing of things following our trip to Rhodes. I have a to-do list which includes a new post for my writing blog, reading the proofs of several chapters of The Saddling, finalising the new cover for The Judas Inheritance and setting about writing a few more travel articles for a site or two. On the subject of The Judas Inheritance, if you don’t have a copy with the original cover (that features a Symi ruin) then grab one now. In a few days, the new cover will be out, and the old one will no longer be available through Amazon. Perhaps the originals will become collector’s items one day. yeah, right.
The story is exactly the same, in fact, the interior will be exactly the same, but the cover will look like a completely different thing. It’s much more professional and well designed (because I didn’t do it) and it’s being done by the same people who have done the cover for The Saddling – which should be out next month or, more likely, early in May.
While I am getting on with all of that, the sun has come back, though so has the chilled breeze and the air is colder than it was a few weeks ago. The sea is calm though, and it’s not been windy. And that’s good news because Neil has just come back from his aerobics class all keen and eager to go for a walk up the hill. I have to play the piano at 1.30, and we need to have lunch first… But there’s plenty of time… Okay, just let me finish this… You can finish it later… I’ve run out of excuses, so I’m off for a short walk. I may be some time.
