Can you believe it?

Yes, can you believe it, I actually lost this blog. I completely forgot that I had even started it or even had it for that matter! But now that I've found it I'm going to make sure that I update it as often as I can and bring this to life.

So, first things first, an update. My last blog post I see I said that I was busy editing, well, I've finished editing. I finished in late July and published my novel The Story of Silence a week later. You can find it on Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Story-Silence-Peter-Van-Werkhoven/dp/1481926616/ref=la_B00DOM8UZS_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1381812620&sr=1-1
And Createspace: https://www.createspace.com/4096745
And as soon as I work out how to format it correctly it will be up on Smashwords.

No, what else? Oh yes, in a little over two weeks it will be November which means for quite a lot of writers all over the world, NaNoWriMo. I will be entering that again this year and writing a new novel which could sort of be classed as a sequel to last year's, the story above. I won't tell you exactly what it's about due to it maybe containing spoilers for The Story of Silence. I can tell you the name of it though, it's called Lights and Shadows. It'll be a mystery like the other one.

Besides publishing and planning for my next novel I don't think there is any other big news to tell. So until further notice, goodbye!

Book Research.

I've written a book and I've been hard at it editing lately, (Hahaahaaha, don't makes me laugh, hard at it?! Pft! Yeah right) and it's going pretty well I think. And I've been having to do some research for it to make it more lifelike, more modern and real, that sort of stuff.

So far I have looked up heroin. Looked to see if there was Internet in the 90s and what sites there were to use. What you had to do to get a passport and board a plane in the late 80s. And now I'm trying to find out what cars were driven in America in 2006.

I have to look those things up because I don't know. And I'm looking up to see what cars there are, and I type in 'cars 2006' and all these post come up about the movie Cars. That movie came out in 2006 and I actually remember it coming out in cinemas! Which is really weird because I've never thought about the movie before and when it came out and now seeing it pop up when I'm researching it has brought back a lot of memories. It's really weird. But I just thought that I should let you know. That's it basically. Talk to you later!

Testing, One two three. Testing...

This is just something for me to post and, and, yeah. Post. I'm kind of lost at designing this blog to the way I want it. I'm not used to doing this sort of thing so it's kinda gone over my head. I don't think this note has got to be very long. It's just supposed to be something that I write so I can post it and work things out around it. See what it looks like and stuff like that.
