Author Journal 14th – 20th April 2022
Advertisements Last week was odd. It started with a mystery leak in the kitchen that ate a fair bit of writing time. A leak that, after hunting its source down, turned out to be a spill 🤦♀️ But after that… nothing. No dramas. No llamas. No distractions.

Author Journal 7th – 13th April 2022
Advertisements Before I write these journal posts, I check back over my planner to get a reminder of what I did the previous week. Turns out that what I thought had happened actually didn’t. I thought I’d remembered the week pretty well–it was my first week back after ten days off; it can’t have been […]

Author Journal 31st March – 6th April 2022
Advertisements Like all good things, holidays must come to an end. On the one hand, I’m a bit bummed that I don’t get to have a long lie until 0530, but on the other, I’m really excited to get back to my work routine. I mentioned in a post last week about the importance of […]

Author Journal 24th – 30th March 2022
Advertisements Guess who’s on holiday, finally? Yip, that’s me with the huge grin and a list of movies to watch–when I’m not out on the bike with Jez. Like most people, the last week of work before you’re on holiday is a hard slog. And, man, did I feel it.

Author Journal 17th – 23rd March 2022
Advertisements What a week! The last seven days have just flown by. I can’t believe it’s time for another journal entry already. I upped my writing goal to 4,000 words last week without really looking at what scenes were coming up. Writing in Adam’s or Elle’s point of view (POV) is easy enough for me […]

Author Journal 10th – 16th March 2022
Advertisements I’ve been counting down the days for the last month or so. Chomping at the bit to get back to the actual writing of Running the Asset. Well, that time finally came last week. That’s also around the time a wee bit of fear slipped in, tainting my excitement. Getting back into writing fiction […]

Working the Asset — Update 20th August
Advertisements I love update post day! It means that I’ve made progress on my WIP, and that I’m ever closer to my goal of releasing Working the Asset. Since the last update (ten days ago), I’ve completed Pass #5 — four days ahead of schedule 😃🥳 — and have made a start on Pass #6. […]

Working the Asset — Update 10th August
Advertisements It’s been a couple of weeks since I did an update post for Working the Asset. Since the last update, I’ve blasted through Pass #4, the aim of which is to deepen audience delight with genre sequences, dramatic irony, and making sure that the story escalates well. I’m now working on Pass #5. This […]

Writing Update and A Wee Bit on CRPS
Advertisements Last week I posted about getting stuck into adding some meat to Working the Asset‘s story skeleton. I’d fantasized that I’d have posted that I’d gotten that done by now and was on the way to editorial pass #2…I may have bitten off more than I could chew for the time I had allowed […]

Writing Update!
Advertisements It’s been a while (a really long while) since I’ve done an update post for my writing progress. That’s mainly been down to life getting in the way of writing. In the last month or so, I’ve taken steps to remedy that—pretty much bahookie in chair and head down kind of steps. What I’m […]
