So. I’ve not done much in the way of New Words in the last couple of weeks, partly because Touchstone was still sitting there giving me the side-eye any time I thought about starting a new project, and partly because Touchstone itself still felt too… momentous, shall we say, to dive into. Partly, also, because […]

As a quick aside, the Kickstarter for And Then I Shall Transform is going brilliantly! It’s funded, we’ve hit the first stretch goal (which means I’ll spend at least some time over the Easter long weekend doing some artworks for the book, hurrah!), and we are closing in on the next! If you’d like to

Wow. Okay. A writing update seems to be in order, right? With a note that if you’d like to be kept apprised of writing developments in a live(ish) fashion, Instagram is the place for that. Because my account is public, I think you don’t even need an account to view? Not sure, will have to
It’s About Time For A Writing Update! Read More »
Welcome to Writer Wednesday, one quick tip to improve your writing weekly. Today’s topic is writer’s block! For me, there are usually three reasons for this.

A quick writing update seems in order. The good news: I’ve hit the 50k mark on Define Good! The, uh, other news? Yeah I’m still not convinced I’m halfway, and neither is my alpha reader (the person whose job it is to just cheer wildly as I complete each chapter, basically, so I have some
Getting back into the habit of things is significantly on my mind of late as I try to restart writing after 6 months off. I ended the month with nearly 15,000 words, which is pretty good for a cold start, considering I didn’t really write the first week of August and it’s been as aforementioned

Habits are so dang difficult, aren’t they? All the will in the world, and you still can’t just MAKE yourself Do The Thing that you actually really want to do. It’s terribly frustrating. Hence my lil grid of boxes at the back of my diary for the year, a tiny incentive to nudge myself onward

Been a long, long while since I did a writing update, mostly because it’s been a long, long while since I had writing to update about, AH HA HA. *ahem*. So, the planio as it stands is something like this, because apparently my poor lil ADHD brain is incapable of writing two books in the
Yeah, This Is Not A Novella (Kaditeos Series Update) Read More »
…It’s not really topical, I just liked the alliteration. I have a bunch of ideas of things that I want to post about after having not posted in so long, but the problem is I keep thinking of them while I’m not at the computer, or my phone, or even somewhere with a pen-and-paper. I’m
I realised on the weekend that Define Good, the novel I was working on in Jan/Feb and the next book in the Kaditeos series, has about 50k to go until it’s done. If you’ve been around in the writing world at all for a while, you’ll know 50k is a Special Number: it’s the number
