Anyone looking at this blog will see that there’s a lot of projects going on. They’re all in various states of completion, as is the way with writing, and some have been close to abandoned as other priorities have arisen. And whilst sometimes projects are left behind and have to remain as unpublished drafts, itContinue reading “Projects Galore – The Grand Reworks”

No Post This Month – Kickstarter Still Live
This is just a quick note to say there will be no post this month. There’s been a lot of things going on and I haven’t had the time to dedicate my focus to a worthwhile post and so it’s better to leave it blank rather than offer something half-hearted. Instead, I’ll just say thatContinue reading “No Post This Month – Kickstarter Still Live”
We’re Going to Kickstarter!
I’ve got some exceptionally exciting news: I’ve been working with the incredible team at EverAfterPrint on a novella and, as of this very moment, it is live on Kickstarter!

Retired For Now – Project #3/OFBB
The hard truth about writing is that not every project will see the light of day. It isn’t the most fun conclusion to reach, often you work on something for months, even years, and to know that you might be the only person who ever gets to see it, that can be disheartening. There areContinue reading “Retired For Now – Project #3/OFBB”

The Return to Project #2
Although I’ve been in the world of Project #2 for the past few years, it’s been a while since I worked on the story itself. So whilst it is something that has been a somewhat active part of my life, I’ve been in the world-building and the story itself hasn’t been touched in a longContinue reading “The Return to Project #2”
Project TDOA – Transformation into a Trilogy
Last I spoke about project TDOA, I mentioned that it had grown from a duology into a trilogy and that it was stronger for it but that work still needed to be done. Very recently, I finished another draft for this particular project in its revised form and I’m pretty happy with it. It’s farContinue reading “Project TDOA – Transformation into a Trilogy”
Year Review: 2024
Another January is here again! Often, at this time of year, people say that the months have flown by and time has moved far too quickly, and whilst I might not agree entirely, I do have to admit those last few months seemed to come out of nowhere. Maybe you feel similarly or perhaps youContinue reading “Year Review: 2024”
Another Year Coming to A Close

You can spend a lot of these weeks asContinue reading “Another Year Coming to A Close”
Your Environment is Crucial
Don’t underestimate the importance your environment has on your art. That isn’t just the place where you create, it’s where you live, where you work, anywhere and everywhere you spend your time is your environment and it has an effect.
