Seven Days?
I did not realise how long it is since my last blog. Doesn’t time fly when you work nights…? During the time, I have been working on my novel plot and have arranged some good quality ideas and scenes. For the first time, in a long time, I am looking forward to writing again. The…

Where to go from here?
As this is a personal blog, I will not be plugging any writing plans, methods or products. However, I must say that SCRIVENER is awesome! If there is one product that I would advise, it would be this. It just makes life easy, so I use it all the time now. Worth a punt if…

Things Change again!
I will be honest and say that the last year has not been fun. Battling with an illness that strikes without warning and without reason has tested my patience to the limit and killed my career as a content writer. I am not concerned. What has happened cannot be changed and I now find myself…

The wonders of blue cheese and why I like ducks
I do try to keep subjects diverse but strangely enough, the title subjects are more entwined than one may think. I have not added to this blog for quite some time, and the reason for this is that I have been writing more or less constantly for the last few months. Again, diverse literary subjects…

It has been a while…
My apologies for the ridiculous length of time since my last attempt at blogging, but things have been rather fraught to say the least. However, onwards and upwards, or something like that anyway. I have been trying my hand at various things, including content writing, continuation of my novel, procrastinating… the usual pastimes that are…

Nearly ready!
As November approaches, as it inevitably does, my thoughts turn to NaNoWriMo. I take part for a number of reasons, for the fun of it, the camaraderie, and the experience. I also have another reason, and that is the inspiration that being involved in NaNo creates. It almost forces you to write, to make your word…

Nearly November again.
Where has the year gone? I know perfectly well where the year has gone, and how it has gone, but the speed it has got there is quite ridiculous! NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) is upon us again and I still have no idea what I am going to write about. I have even considered…

The Novella…. How is it going?
Put simply, it is going well and I am enjoying writing it. The experience is putting a different onus on my writing, and I am finding it fun and challenging. I am probably doing it wrong by editing as I go along but I feel that an initial ‘edit’ now, will save me a lot…

We have begun…
As the title states, we have begun. Not the most inventive of titles, I am happy to admit, but I suppose it is about being straight with people. The planning of the Novella has been a bit of a baptism of fire, mainly due to the fact that planning is a new concept to me.…
