I am always write!

This won’t be a long post as I have been busy writing Akresha II (working title), but I felt it was time I popped in a quick word. The process is going well and I am now up to speed, with around 10K written. I thought it was important to let you know how I write so here we go.

I have a memory that allows me to plan the whole plot without physically writing it down. Some would argue that this is pantsering but I wholly disagree. I have the idea, the plot and most of the narrative planned as I go about my daily business; though it is organic and subject to change, the complexities of the story are there so I merely need to convert them to text. In my considered opinion, that us more difficult than coming up with the ideas in the first instance.

I have found in the past that the method can lead to shallow characterisations, but I have worked on ensuring that I breathe more life into the people in the plot. It has not been too difficult with Akresha II as the basic characters are still there and I haven’t added any as yet. This will be happening pretty soon in the story and I intend to ensure that the reader gets a better image of the character. As with Akresha, it is a fairly simple concept.

I will be blogging more as I delve deeper into the workings of Akresha II. Meanwhile you can get a copy of Akresha from here and through Beaten Track Publishing
