After several days struggling to find a way to charge my little Asus laptop and my mobile phone as well as accessing the internet I have finally found the solution. I am camping in Geneva, meeting as many people as I can to gain help with the future plot of Time Crystal. I’m trying hard, [...]
Research Trip
I will soon be embarking upon my first research trip to Geneva since December 2007. This is only happening now thanks to my dear friend Soesic who invited me to visit her in France. Since she lives not too far from Switzerland this seemed like an opportunity not to be missed to go and [...]
Quand j’ai mange mon diner indien et regarde l’émission Genève à Chaud sur Léman Bleu TV (via l’internet) j’ai écouté Pascal Décaillet annonce que Pascal Sciarini passera bientôt. C’est un homme qui m’intéresse par ce que j’espère qu’il me aidera avec des questions de la réponse de les conseils cantonal, municipal et fédéral réagirait si [...]
This Week’s News

I’ve also created ebooks for Volumes 1 and 2 as pdf, prc (format for Kindle), epub (format for iPad) and pdb format for lots of other platforms.
I have put all four forms of ebooks onto the time [...]

be until 2012). It is also the official publication date for Volume One.
So will I be doing interviews and signings and having a launch party and spending lots of [...]
This Week’s News
I must have spent, oh, I would guess at least fifteen minutes this
week on the Time Crystal Game. Maybe even twenty. So that’s only another
four or five days to go. Get it finished in no time! I’m afraid that
working on various projects in Leicester is still taking most of my
time, time which I [...]
While wandering around the virtual Geneva looking for people who might help me translate Time Crystal into French I suddenly remembered that I started a blog on the daily newspaper Tribune de Geneve.
Visiting the site I finally found it at http://philbrown.blog.tdg.ch/(I obviously was still using my old name in those days)
What is most startling is [...]

Along with much of Europe, Geneva is under snow and the ski resorts are getting ready for another good season.
When I got up this morning and settled down to the first part of my shift (before breakfast) I found a piece of junk mail in my inbox from my blog on the Tribune de Geneve, a blog I started after I got back from Geneva this time last year. This was the first response [...]
What I learned from my trip to Geneva was:
What the inside of a hostel room looks like
What a tour of the UN shows
That the Cafe de la Douanne has been demolished (good job I found this out!)
Where Alex and George land
How to get arrested by the French border police (nearly)
But so far I’ve received absolutely [...]
